Hi Everyone

 Hope everyone is doing good. I've been gone for about 3 weeks . went to Germany for my sisters 60th and my 55th  Birthday. Had a great time. Now it's back to business.... I put on 5 pounds while I was there. so now it is a total of 15 since Jan.2007. Anyone in the Waldorf area in WW? If you are please contact me. I've joined on line but need to go to the meetings. Would be nice to know there is someone else going.....

Hello, I know being out of your element can sometimes make it hard to stay on track.  Just refocus and use your tool. I used to to to a great weigh****cher meeting on Wednesday nights at 6:00 at the WW in Waldorf. It is in the shoping center where Shoppers and K&G Superstore is.  The leader is a great lady named Kathy. Good luck. We met at the last support meeting and I thought you looked great.   Happy Belated Birthday!

Thanks,

I guess I will try that meeting in Waldorf. I just don't know how else to get back to eating right.

Welcome back!!  I am sure you can get back on track and work that tool and you lose those 15 pounds.  Up your protein go back to basics and of course exercise. Best wishes!

Thanks for the welcome back.... I know this may sound dumb but what is the basics? I know I need to up my Protein. I do drink a protein shake everyday.  I use to get this milk that was low carb and low cal. But Giant stopped careing it. And there is now where else that has it. I sure mis it. It's made be HOOD. Anyway, I sure you all can help me. I'm so scared to gain anymore. Have a great thanksgiving. Hugs Elie

Happy belated birthday! hugs, Mo

Thanks MO..

hi ellie... glad you're back... hope you had a great time.  my daughter-in-law is from germany and her mother was here in maryland to help us celebrate our Thanksgivings... i go to the WW meetings on fridays at noon (weigh-ins begin at 11:30) so maybe that time will fit better for you.  i actually thought i had a "handle" on not eating the wrong foods, especially for the first 2-3 years post surgery... but, all of a sudden, about 2 years ago... i started craving the wrong foods AGAIN!!! i thought i had put all that behind me... but, alas.... not so! so i have been going' to WW for the past couple of years to try AGAIN, to re-learn portion control and eating the healthy choices.  glad to hear you want to do something now... before it gets out of hand ... take care... kay tri-county WLS group waldorf, MD

Kay, That would be great. So next Friday is the first of Dec. And so is the Party right. I will go to the meeting on the first unless I forget but I will right it down on the calender. Where is your daughter-in-law from???
