Re: Thinking of starting WW at home.....

[Guest guest]

, Hi I just started 3 weeks ago and I love the freedom of going to a

" meeting " when ever I sit down at the computer. I t takes a while to

figure out how to maneuver through the sight but I think I am finally get

the hang of it. You are an inspiration to us all with 3 kids that age and

even thinking about another life change! Good luck along your journey!

Just remember to do what is in front of you. I have found I can always

start over again.

Take care,

Hi ,

I don't do the at home program but I do believe that it can work for you

because you sound determined. I think that the combination of THIS group

and doing the at home program is just as good as going to the meetings! I

look forward to sharing your weight loss journey!

,

I have been reading messages from this group for a few months without

joining the conversation since I usually don't have much time. I just

wanted to let you know that I am doing the WW At Home program and I

really like it. I have fallen off the wagon lately but I haven't

gotten discouraged because I know that eating this way is something I

can do if I put my mind to it. I have not gained any because I think

I am still keeping some of the good habits that I have gained from

doing the program. Get support where you can from friends, e-mail

buddies, etc. I have some friends that I work with who go to WW so

that helps me out with support. I also read these posts and visit the

WW site just to keep my mind on what I am doing. I love the Winning

Points. It is so easy to calculate and I have been more successful on

this plan than any other. I feel for you being without your husband

and having small children but look at this as an opportunity to not

only start a new life in another country but to start a new you. By

the time you meet up with your husband he will be thrilled with the

what he sees and you will be happier too.

Good luck and feel free to e-mail me.

Welcome to the group!!! We have a lot of support and encouragement

here! I do ww at home (I bought all the stuff from the meetings and

then stopped attending) and use this board, as well as a couple of

others for the support. So far, it is working great!!!

I have been a stay at home mom (the past 11 years--11 year old son,

10 year old son, and 3 year old daughter) until this last August,

when I started working at my kids school. I joined ww at the end of

May 2001, and so far I have lost 37 pounds and still have about

another 30 pounds to go. During the summer, the kids and I would all

go to the park and walk the track there. They also like to use my

orbitrek that I bought over the summer, we see who can go the

longest.

We have all the extra things here under the files (over in the left

margin <--) to help you on your journey. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!! We are

here to help you along the way!

Thinking of starting WW at home.....

Hi. My name is and I am thinking of starting the WW at home program. I was on WW before and lost over 25lbs. But since then I have had 2 more children and weigh more now than I have ever weighed before. I stepped on the scale yesterday and saw that I have passed the 100lbs to lose mark. I don't mind being overweight, I don't need the model look, but I feel "sloppy", "dumpy" and that I don't like at all. I'm only 31 and if I lose the weight I want I'll have a wonderful life ahead of me.I'm thinking of doing the at home plan for two main reasons. One being that I have 3 children all under the age of 4. I can't afford a babysitter, and getting that many kids out of the house, well, it's not easy, but I am sure that I could earn some extra points. LOL. The second reason is that we're moving. My first move will be in about a month from NC to NJ. Then about 2 months later we will be moving to Scotland. My husband is from there and we're going. He's going in a few weeks. But the kids and I will be around a lot longer.I really need the support and motivation. Some motivation is not seeing DH for about 4 months. Time to lose alot of weight. But it will be stressful, and I'm a stress eater.Sorry this was so long. I hope that this group will really be able to help. Do you think that the WW at home will work for me? I hope to hear from some of you soon. And if I don't, good luck, and be proud of every single pound that you lose.
