WW for 2008 Brides

Let's get this rolling again...

Anyone on WW and getting married in '08?

This would be a great place to vent, get tips and motivate us to stay on track. We have a wedding to get skinny for.

Are you in?

I'm in!! FMIL and I just joined (free fees promotion right now!)

I need someone to keep my butt in check, lol. I have a little less time than you my wedding is in August.

Keep in touch,

Crystal

I will be in but I'm not joining until October 8th...I have to go up to washington state the weeekend of the 6th for a wedding that I am in and it's just too hard to travel and do good. So cruch time starting after that...

So happy people want to do this!

I am have great news...I weighed in this morning and lost 4 pounds!

My goal is to lose a total of 50 pounds...and I've lost a total of 8 this month.

42 pounds to go!

I'm in!!! I need all the support I can get. lol

I just started this week and am still figuring out points. And serving sizes. Ack. Who knew they were so small? haha

What are some good zero and 1 point snacks? I am a snacker and it's hard to quit cold turkey.

A good zero point snacks are cucumbers cut up, they are so fresh and remarkably filling.

Also, I love the 100 calorie packs...they are two points and really satisfy cravings.

Congratulations on your success so far --- I'm a big fan of WW. I went after both my children (I gained 60 pounds with my son and I'm only 5'3''!) --- I really believe it is the best program out there ... I'm also an RN so I can also say that it is one of the few that is medically safe!

I always found that paying money to stand on a scale in front of someone kept me honest!

I just wanted to say good luck! And, don't get discouraged ... there were plenty of weeks where I would gain like .3 lbs or lose only .1 ... but if you look at the picture over the long term ... you're still losing! Just stick with it!

Here's a website you might find helpful (someone may have already posted it):

I've never tried weight watchers before, but was thinking about joining. I was trying to lose weight on my own, but I think I need something more structured. I'd like to lose 50 pounds, and my wedding is 11-7-08. Does it make sense to join now or wait until January. I've gone down one pant size so far, but the scale hasn't budged much yet.
