I am so excited I had to share!
I just started trying to lose weight (again) 5 days ago and have already lost 5 pounds!! I am eating right and exercising. It feels great!! Before, I had anxiety and depression, but since beginning this, I have decided to go back to school, and the anxiety and depression have almost disappeared!! Loving it so much! That is…

Question about this statement on facebook
I have a lot of very naive friends who post things like this all the time on FB. I checked snopes and it says it is a mixture of truth and falsehood. Has anyone here tried this? I tend to be skeptical and think if it really worked, everyone would do it!! Daily in the morning 1/2 hour before breakfast and on an empty…

Weight Watchers 360
I have been doing the old Weight Watchers flex program and the weight has been coming off way too slowly. I wondered if anyone here has tried the new WW 360 program and if it compares to the old flex plan. Is it better? Does the weight come off faster? I am going to be asking my doctor about this, but just wondered if I…

Hiding the scale
This is not a question, just a general post. I am tired of stepping on the scale once a week and seeing no results or very little results, if not a gain. I told my son to hide the scale from me and that I would ask for it back in a month. Then, if I do not see decent results, I will ask my doctor what is going on. I lost…

Not really losing weight now
I am doing the old Flex plan from WW. It worked for me before, so am trying it again. While I lost 5 pounds in about a month, I then lost about 7 pounds in 4 days due to a med that was making me sick. I got taken off that and, even though I did not have a huge appetite and still ate right, I still gained some of that back.…

Lost 2 more pounds!
Posting here even though I am not a finished success story yet. I was so frustrated because I lost only 5 pounds in the last 24 days, but this morning found I lost 2 more!! Time to celebrate:)

Something of a sensitive issue
I have noticed since I started losing weight, my sex drive is sky high like it used to be. I think it is probably because I am feeling much better about myself and feeling more attractive (though the weight is coming off slowly). Does anyone else have this going on? Just curious:)

Very frustrated right now
Not sure where this post when, but I was saying how I have only lost 5 pounds in 24 days. This is going way too slow. When I did the WW flex plan before, I lost 3-4 pounds a week the first few weeks. I cannot give up, but it is so frustrating. I am walking, which is the only safe exercise for those with hypertension from…

Doing WW and MFP both
I write down my points from the WW Points Plus system, but I found I am supposed to get 22 points per day. That sounds very low to me. I went ahead and tracked my food here, as well as writing it down here at home. On this site, it said I am eating too few calories, but I stayed within my points. Can someone tell me what…

I am back again and needing info
I have recently had a high blood pressure spike and I know I need to lose weight, eat less sodium and less calories and to exercise. My question is, are there recipes that are both low sodium and low calorie?

Needing help because I am very confused.
I tried the new WW PP program, which I noticed someone said they do not count calories, just points. It worked for me on the old plan, but not the new. I am going to try and just count calories. I am confused, though. I found out my BMR is 1505. I saw somewhere to multiple that x 1.2 to found out how many calories I need…

Ready to give up!
I usually do not like posting anything unless it is positive, but I am at my wit's end! I have not lost even an ounce in 2 weeks and I want to give up! I started off great...lost 17 pounds in the first 2 weeks, but nothing since. I have not changed anything so not sure what is going on:( Just needing motivation I guess. I…

I have a question about online etiquette
Say you loan someone something, ask for it back and they act like they do not know what you are talking about, would you call them out? I am in between a battle of 2 good friends. One loaned something very special to them to this other person. Other person is acting like they have no clue what the first is talking about,…

Couple of questions
What does NSV mean? I see it on here a lot. Also, my scale broke (nope..I am not that heavy! LOL), but I need a new one. Any recommendations?

For some reason, I cannot find my recipe for
apples in a slow cooker with sugar and cinnamon. I see all kinds of recipes for applesauce, apple butter, etc., but no low-cal apples in the crockpot with cinnamon and sugar. I cannot remember if you put a small pad of butter or just the apples, cinnamon and sugar, and I am not sure how long to cook them. Anyone?

How about phrases that drive you nuts
One of mine is when people say change up. Redundant! Change is change.

Black eyed peas
I thought they were 0 points plus value. I could not find by googling and it says they are 3 points for a half cup! Is this really true?

Hi all. I am back again.
I started not long ago and lost motivation. Am back and more determined than ever! I would like to lose about 40 pounds to get into some clothes santa brought! That is motivation for sure! I also was thinking of doing a dance video routine to help the loss along, but not sure which one. I love to dance. Any ideas?
