Gym and Personal Trainer Pressure!

Anyone on WW online?
I just switched from the meetings to online. I started to do it on my own and only use MFP but I do like the Online WW because I think it helps me keep up with my points better than writing them down.

Weigh-In Day Rituals?

Mini Milestones Symbol Ideas or Experience???
Hi! I am doing both MFP and Weight Watchers and have recently lost my first 5 pounds. Last week we learned about celebrating the mini goals and in the WW Weekly there was an article about someone who would buy a new charm to put on a bracelet for every 5 lbs to signify her journey. Another woman would put a dollar in her…
