WW is becoming more and more profit-oriented
<begin rant> I've never been one to buy WW products. I have two WW-branded items -- a scale I bought when I first joined WW and I think I paid $20 for it (on sale at Sears) and a set of the 1/2- and 1-cup long-handled spoons. But some of the stuff in the article (link below) is bordering on the ridiculous. I didn't see ANY…

Food Find -- Sausage Works Greek Goddess Smoked Chicken Sausage
Anyone who has known me for very long knows that I'm not "big into" things like turkey/chicken hot dogs, sausages, bacon, etc. But a friend introduced me to the Sausage Works smoked chicken sausages. They come in various flavors. I've now tried the Italian and the Greek Goddess (made with spinach and feta cheese) and have…

Monday Weighers ~~ 2/12/18 -- How did you do?
Bad news: No loss. I stayed the same (and I know why because I've tracked everything!) Good news: I didn't gain Better news: I'm down 7 pounds since the first of the year. I'm also 1 pound below where I was this time last year :) The why(s)? A decadent chocolate cupcake with chocolate buttercream frosting from Happy Cakes…

Roll Call ~ Sunday, 2/11/18
Many of us feel the need to remain connected by just signing in on a daily basis. We may have a lot to say or very little. We may say smart things or dumb things. It doesn't matter if we're having a good day, a bad day...or something in between. We'll post our thoughts, our successes, our challenges, our insights (or lack…

FAO: Jim Burke
First, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Second, I just realized that you've lost as much weight as you currently weigh. Now, THAT'S impressive!! You are, literally, half the man you used to be :)

The reason for tracking?
So everyone who has known me for very long knows how much I hate tracking. BUT, the first of the year I committed myself to tracking on MFP. I was getting ready to have dinner and couldn't remember what I had for lunch! Went back to my tracker and found that I couldn't have as much for dinner as I thought. Just added a…

Living The Lifestyle ~ Wednesday, January 31, 2018
We meet here to explore, share, celebrate, and (sometimes) agonize over how we do (or don't) incorporate weight loss guidelines into our daily lives. "It's a lifestyle, not a diet" is easily and often said, but sometimes not so simply put into practice. This is a thread for everyone. If you're new to GoaD, or to weight…

Down 2.2!! Biggest weekly loss I've had in (literally) YEARS! Not sure what I did differently this past week.

Monday Weighers -- How'd you do?
Down 0.8 this week. Since I've had losses of 1+ pound each week since the first of the year, I was expecting the loss this week to be less. And I was right. <sigh>

Old dog, new tricks :)
In addition to crackers/chips/etc., I'm also a pasta addict. But the points/calorie hit for pasta is a big one. Two ounces of uncooked pasta is 200 calories (and 6 points). Have you SEEN how little 2 ounces of pasta is when cooked??? When I was at the grocery store yesterday, I noticed a container of zucchini noodles (aka…

My "take" on Freestyle
Last Sunday, I joined WW online for one month. I paid $19.95 which is only $6.95 more than I would pay for one meeting so it wasn't a big hit in the pocketbook. I will be canceling the membership as soon as the one-month subscription is up. I did this primarily so that I could see what the new program is like AND see the…

OT: Where's Jim??
He didn't check in on the Roll Call and he hasn't started the LTL thread. Very unusual for him -- hope things are okay.

If You Lose One Pound A Week
I've posted this on January 1st every year since 2009 :) Losing one pound a week doesn't seem like much and sometimes it's a little disheartening, but remember this. IF I LOST 1 LB. EACH WEEK OF 2018 By Valentine's Day I'd be 7 lbs. lighter! I’m loving it! By St. Patrick's Day I'd be 11 lbs. lighter! With the luck–o-the…

My 2017 in Review
This is WHY I've been keeping a spreadsheet since 2010 :) My weight this morning was 1.4 pounds HIGHER than it was on 12/31/16. Since 2013, I've slowly inched my way up a little bit every year. :s My official (lifetime) goal weight is 140 and I weighed 148 this morning. While I'm not happy with this, it's better than the…

Daily Motivator -- Wednesday, 12/7/17
And here's another timely one (because the WW program is "changing" again) :wink: ******************************* Seek change, embrace change, encourage change. At the same time be wary of change, careful about how you make it. Change exists at the heart of life, forming the very definition of life. Yet there is more to…

Daily Motivator -- December 5, 2017
Disappointment hurts, yet with enough time you can get over it, and get back to a more positive frame of mind. But do you really need all that time to make a recovery? Interruptions and distractions shatter your focus, and yet you can eventually regain that focus. What if you could shorten eventually to immediately? It’s a…
