I do WW online and hang out here to pay attention to macros and read discussions. Would ove more WW friends!

I've been having the same problem!

I have bipolar 2 rapid cycling with anxiety. My cocktail of meds sounds pretty familiar to yours. The Seroquel made me gain more than 50 pounds in 2 months and this is the only cocktail that has worked for me so I stay with these meds. I now have about 90 pounds to lose. My only advice is to tell you what I do. After…

Amazing job! And you look so familiar! Trying to figure out where I've seen you before lol.

Perfect! Thank you!

Do I need the buttermilk?

Definitely not breaded! Thank you, those sound great!

1/5/2013 fitbit: 5,353 all day steps = 2 points

Due to food issues my weigh-in day is now today (may move it back to Friday eventually) and my starting weight is 223 lbs (that's 2 pounds added since Wednesday! I KNOW I didn't eat 2 pounds worth of food since then but whatever). Total: Daily points: 32 Weekly points: 49 Points used today: 47 weekly points left over: 34…

Doing better today! Went out for my birthday (on the 8th) and counted points and preplanned my entire meal so I feel pretty good right. Going to keep going with WW because I know fi I give it my all it will work!

I don't know. I sometimes feel like I should just be counting calories. I've been doing WW for over a year and have had very, very minimal success (probably because I don't try hard enough). And when I try counting calories I never even last the week and run back to points because they're easy. I'm feeling pretty unsettled…

I'm doing the new points because that's all I've known. I never tried the program before PointsPlus although I've heard a lot of good things about it.

1/2/2013 fitbit: 3,600 all day steps = 1 point recumbent bike: 20 min, level 2, 3.17 miles = 2 points total activity points: 3

Mine are to exercise for at least 10 minutes six days out of the week. My husband is setting up my recumbent bike right now so I should be able to do this!

1) Reason you want to lose weight To be healthy and live longer, too look better and to stop breathing hard when I go up one flight of stairs. 2) Reason you (feelings on why) you gained weight I'm an emotional eater and have never mastered the concept of portion control. In one sitting I wouldn't eat a cup of ice cream,…

Hi, I'm Aleks. I will be 39 (eeek) on the 8th. I've been doing WW points pus on and off since it started. Twice I've done pretty well and then turned back to food and regained back everything plus some. I also tried MFP and calories but I just hate counting calories and actually don't mind counting points. I'm 5"3 and…

I'm doing it at home too, I don't do meetings lol

A tattoo.

WW was working and I'm still sort of using both but not really :/ Thank you for all your help!!

Thank you!!

Yarwell, my current weight is 215 lbs.

I'm doing WW and this is very inspirational to me. It seems to work better for me than calorie counting does but i still love this site for support and keeping an eye on macros.

Bump!

Had lots of time to think today and if I add in the 5 or so servings of fruits and veggies I would obviously be over 1200 calories. I'm really bad about getting in fruits and veggies...any ideas on easy ways to make that happen?

I actually think I might be changing my mind, go figure. Maybe I need to face down the weekend and build up some willpower instead of hiding from it. If that makes sense.

I've managed to go from extra cream and extra sugar to skim milk and regular sugar over the last year. I miss the cream but it's not worth it to me anymore.
