Guest guest Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 Welcome Back . I like the Core plan also, in fact I lost 3 pounds the first week. I haven't been so good this week; I allowed family pressures to make my decisions. Its funny how hard it is to get into the right mindset to accomplish our goals. Sounds like you found it, and congratulations! I believe the first step is hard, the sticking to it is hard and the maintaining is hard. I ALSO believe that it is all worth it. Maybe I'll reach out and have you give me a quick kick in the rear so I can get this thing going again! Re-joining Hi everyone! Some of you might remember me from not too long ago. My name is . I live in the Blue Ridge Mts of North Carolina. I'm 5 " 3' When I started weight watchers about a year ago I weighed 168. By spring of this year I had gotten down to 148 and then I decided to try the Dr. Phil method. Except I didn't try very hard at all, and I gained back up to 161.5. I've joined weight watchers online and already lost back down to 160 in the first four days or so on core. So far so good! I love not having to constantly calculate points and write everything down. I've gotten involved with their challenge board and am committed to doing 100 ab exercises every day for the month of Sept (been doing crunches so far) and also doing various challenges pertaining to Dance Dance Revolution. I'm also planning on training for a 5k run as soon as they finish paving our road. For now, I just try to take long walks with my dog and work with resistance bands for some strength training. I'm very glad to be back working on this new lifestyle with a group that I recall is very supportive. 158.5/160.0/135 (I joined WW online at 158.5 on Tuesday. I woke up on Wednesday having gained 2 pounds due to high salt eating and TOM. Thus the weight gain.. but it's coming off again now.)

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 It really *is* worth it! Having lost and then gained again, I've learned a lot about myself. I was feeling so healthy when I was at my lowest weight and then I gained a little back and got depressed and ate out of my depression which made me gain weight which made me depressed.... You get the idea. It's a vicious cycle. You can do it! Don't let your family ruin all of your hard work. Consider yourself kicked in the rear, and by a martial artist to boot!
