Guest guest Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Oh, my goodness, Tory, my heart rate is up so high in excitement for you, I just might count it as my exercise for today. WOW!!! And nobody I can think of deserves it more. You have certainly been my inspiration -- got me to think about maintenance even though I am 50 pounds away from it, and (miracle of miracles) helped me drag my butt off the couch. If this is a way WW can thank you for all of that, I'm cheering them on with pompons and a little flippy skirt! (And you KNOW I'd never have worn THAT before WW!) JB > ...and this time it's REAL!

Did you use Flex or Core, did you exercise everyday? What does maintenance entail? I have asked, but, no-one will answer. I am sooooo far away from goal, but, would like to know what to look forward to. And what does WW do? A make-over? Blessings, Beckie > ...and this time it's REAL!

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 LOL, good for her (blushing is too cute!) I have a long way to go, but, I am definitely in this for life. I am in no way desiring to reach goal, and then quit. I would like to reach a point where the weight loss is a bit noticable, though...is that that vain or what?! I already feel so much better and so much more energy, and the grocery bill is going down with me not eating so much! Hubby will be home this weekend, we have not seen each other in over a month.

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 I have lots of well wishes to reply to personally, but I'll reply first to Beckie! > Hi, Tory, > Please provide details! How much did you lose? How long did it take? How > long have u kept it off? Did you use Flex or Core, did you exercise > everyday? What does maintenance entail? I have asked, but, no-one will > answer. I am sooooo far away from goal, but, would like to know what to > look forward to. > And what does WW do? A make-over? > Blessings, > Beckie Beckie: I lost over 100 pounds (between 104 and 107 depending on the week). I started at 222 and met my goal of 130 in December 2002. It took me ten months to get to there. In January 2003 I made my personal goal of 120 and have been maintaining at or below that since Jan 2003. Exercise: Yes, I exercise every day. I started exercising in the 4th week. It is a part of my daily routine and while you CAN lose without exercise, since you're trying to lose weight and get healthy, exercise is a must. You don't have to run marathons, although they can be a lot of fun. You just have to get out and move. It will speed up your loss, firm up your muscles, and give you 100 benefits you never even thought of. I did the Success Plan and then moved to Flex. Since I seem to have no ability to figure out when I am satisfied, as opposed to " Dang, I can't believe I ate that much! " Flex is not for me. Maintenance is just doing what you've done to lose the weight. Some people try it on their own but most aren't successful. I just figured that if it worked to lose, it'll work to maintain that loss. While I don't judge someone who has restarted WWers because of regaining...it can happen to anyone, and that's okay. But for me, I just didn't want to do that. So... Once you start maintenance you want to move from losing to maintaining. You still count points, and really it becomes second nature. You add 2-4 points a week. Weigh in once a week (or once a month) and see if you gain or lose. If you gain, drop a point or two. If you lose, add a point or two. Keep on journaling and counting APs. I tend to eat about 30 points a day, with more on the weekends. I give myself a 6 pound wiggle room. I like being 115, but if I fall 3 pounds below, I add points. If I go 3 pounds above, I drop points. So last weigh in I was up to 117.8 and I dropped down to 27 points. I lost 1 pound this week so I may add a point or just go with 27 and if I need more food, I'll add it. On the weekends, and this is a personal choice, I use some of my flexpoints. On average I'll use 10 APs/Flexies extra on Saturday and Sunday. Sometimes more, sometimes less, but I always use some. We tend to eat out on the weekends. So really even though I target 30, I average maybe 33 per day if averaged out over the week. That's a LOT of food if you manage it right. I do exercise. I workout twice a day. I do either aerobics or swimming in the morning and I run in the afternoon. Don't let that make you think " Oh I could NEVER do that " because I started out as a complete couch potato. I added in a little pilates (from a DVD) the first few weeks of exercising, then I joined Curves. I just gradually got into shape and the better shape I was in, the easier exercise was and the more I really looked forward to it. I have found a joy in running that I never DREAMED I would. I always HATED HATED HATED running when I was a kid! Seroiusly thought it was torture. I did my first marathon on May 1, and have already signed up for another. So that's it in a nutshell! I will journal every day for the rest of my life. To me it's " health maintenance " the same is if I had to take a prescription for high blood pressure, or test my glucose levels with diabetes. I just prefer to write down what I eat, exercise and write that down, and weigh in (at home) once a week rather than deal with lifestyle illnesses. I know the " thought " of journaling forever for some people is like " crap " but seriously. Isn't that a small price to pay for being thin (or " regular " size) and healthy? Like I tell my students (I teach health and computers). It isn't about living a long life, or living a healthy life, it is about living a long AND healthy life! > > > ...and this time it's REAL!

I will also admit that it's self serving. The more I discuss the plan with people, the easier it is to stay on it.

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 I bet he will Beckie! I started to have people comment at about 35 pounds down, but you know what? I went to see my family and NO ONE commented! Not a word! So I decided not to tell them until I saw them again in December (that was April). In December I'd hit goal of -92 pounds and you know what? They didn't recognize me! LOL! (I'm not joking!) I will warn you, once people start noticing there are times when you almost get " tired " of the comments.

Anyhow, got a voicemail from someone today who said that they are going to fly me to NY and put me up for two nights, do a professional makeover and photoshoot and USE ME FOR A SUCCESS STORY! How cool is that? It's been a good week...first a new house, now this. -- Tory Klementsen, MCP A+ IT and Health Educator The successful person will do the things that the unsuccessful person will not.

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Hi Ann No, I submitted myself a few years ago when I met goal at my sister's insistence. I lost 105 pounds doing the online program. I've never actually been to a meeting. _____ From: Serious-Weight-Watchers [mailto:Serious-Weight-Watchers ] On Behalf Of Ann Koehler Sent: Friday, June 10, 2005 7:24 AM To: Serious-Weight-Watchers Subject: Re: WW's Called That's great.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 LOL, I bet they did not recognize you! That is such an inspiration. And yes, I am quite uncomfortable in the spotlite, but, I am working so hard, I want it to show....Oh, well, never happy, huh? You go girl, you are great in your training, I have checked out your web page. You look so much YOUNGER since you lost that weight, you must still get carded when buying cooking wine! Blessings, Beckie I bet he will Beckie! I started to have people comment at about 35 pounds down, but you know what? I went to see my family and NO ONE commented! Not a word! So I decided not to tell them until I saw them again in December (that was April). In December I'd hit goal of -92 pounds and you know what? They didn't recognize me! LOL! (I'm not joking!) I will warn you, once people start noticing there are times when you almost get " tired " of the comments. It's not that you don't appreciate it, but if you're uncomfortable being the center of attention it can be disconcerting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
