Back On Track Together
Recent Posts
Oprah makes that statement in her WW commercial, and it struck a chord with me. I was struggling to get back on track....about three weeks ago I recommitted to following my program. I had reached 220 several months ago. For reasons I won't go into, I "fell off the wagon". I managed to "hold on" to a degree ...... I stopped losing weight (because I was eating too many carbs) but it wasn't until last month I actually gained weight. The scale read 239. Ouch!!! I knew I'd be in big trouble if I didn't get back to basics ....I've been trying for a long time. I know my restriction still works...so I went back to following one of the Golden rules: Dense Protein First! The scale is down to 224. I keep thinking of Oprah's words "If not now, when?". I'm getting too old to waste time -- I need to reach goal - for me.

Good morning botts:
I am back to 208 this morning. 40 lbs. to go. I can't wait to be in onederland once again. At my current weight clothes are loose on me so I have a new size when I am under 200 lbs. When I get there that is going to be my forever goal to not be in the 200s ever again. For now I just want to be back to 207 tomorrow (I saw 207 for a flash last week). I think 2016 is going to be a year that a lot of us can turn things around. I hope everyone has a great day. Tri

You can relose 5 lbs. Think 1 lb. 5 times. It's easier. Good luck to us. Tri
I like your "pick myself up..." That has helped me so many times over the years. I am going to set a 5 lbs. limit like you have when I reach the goal weight. Happy new year to you and all the botts. :) Tri
Great job! You've got this.
I've got to get back on track as I let the holidays get me sidetracked with more grazing and eating things not on plan. I've gained about 5 pounds and I'm determined to get that under control before it gets worse. My head just hasn't been in the game, but I vow to get back to the healthy habits that work.
Happy New Year everyone
Congratulation !!! 20lbs loss is a huge deal. You really did well. And your deteminstion paid off.
Good luck in the year.
As me - I am maintaining with +/- 5 lbs... Not bad but not as good as I would wish. So close to my goal , that when I get withing 5 lbs..I just lose motivation... The closer to goal we get the harder it is to lose...
This year I am determined to get healtier. Really avoid foods that I am allergic to, and concentrate on geting strong and fit.

Happy New Year botts:
I weighed in this morning and I am 209 lbs. Down 20 lbs. since 2014. Down 10 lbs. since June 2015. Down 3 lbs. since the beginning of Dec. 2015. I wanted to be 208, but I'll take take any movement in the right direction and try to pick up the pace a little this year. I hope to get back to my Weight Watchers lifetime member goal weight of 168. 41 lbs. this year...double from last year. My goal is to ear 3 fruits and 4 veggies every day and cut back my portion sizes. Have a great day everyone. Tri

I went through photos and began rebuilding books that have been torn apart over the years. I was looking at photos from 1988 (my highest weight). I am so glad I turned it around. I want to get back to my Weight Watchers lifetime goal weight of 168 lbs. I will do it one way or another. We are changing health insurance so I will find a new surgeon and try to get a revision if need be. I am aiming to eat a lot more vegetacles today. Have a great day everyone. Tri
