At the suggestion of someone at the other site, I decided to start a NWOP group over at MFP. The support I've received from so many strangers, found through MWOP has been wonderful and I attribute it, in part to my success. I thought this would be a good way to connect. Feel free to add or invite anyone so we can all…
Anyone else have a hard time on the weekends? I do great at work with the structure of work and packing my lunch but I have a really hard time counting/logging on the weekends. At first I started by *NOT* logging on the weekends, and now I've struggled with backsliding in my habits. I know I just have to renew my…
I've been struggling with my weight for a long time. About 10 years ago I lost almost 50 lb. with weight watchers. Fast forward, divorce, remarriage etc etc and I've gained all plus some back. I need help. I went to the Dr. and he basically said exercise more and accept that I'm 47 and menopausal. Thanks Doc. In the past 3…

My stretch marks are getting closer together in a weird dimply mess. It's not enough to stop me from losing weight. I WILL do this. But it…
OK, I may need some help here trying to figure this out and needing some major motivation. All of you are awesome over at MWOP! Look forward to losing with all of you! (THE RIGHT WAY!)
It's time to get really serious again. Starting to count my calories they way I know I need to, eat balanced and healthy, with a little wiggle room every day for a treat to keep me focused on the big prize. I hope to order this dress in a size smaller than I currently am for our cruise:…
Merry Christmas everyone.. Cindy aka mom7
