WEIGHT WATCHERS PRO POINTS - OUR THREADS ARE EXPANDING BUT OUR WAISTS ARE NOT

[Blondeshavemorefun]

STEPPING IN FOR NORMA

Welcome one and all to our 5th thread

If you're just starting out or you've been following WW for a while and you're looking for support you've come to the right place! :)

There are lots of regulars who are well on their weigh (get it! ) and others who have just joined us - we're a mixed bag, all shapes and sizes and all with different goals to achieve but we're all striving for the same thing. We're all here to will one another on with advice, support and lots of cheering!

Androbbob is our resident stat checker and keeps us motivated by totting up the total weight loss each week.

We're quite fast moving at times so just dive in - pour yourself a or and make yourself at home :)

debs you havnt lost anything and youve gained weight on ww?

noway grey/black one for me

x-post debs - I can't believe you've not lost anything in 6 weeks! Can you give us an idea of a normal day for you tracking wise? Maybe we can help with ideas?

in debs case i dont think she eats enough, she admits she doesnt always eat all 29 and i think its her body saying, fuck me, im being starved and fat cells retreat!!!

LADIES IT IS SAFE TO COME ON THIS THREAD!!!

noway i measured and have lost 1cm off waist, hips and each arm so 4cm since last week

*IVE LOST 2 LBS!!!!!!

thanks goodness for that - have come to the conclusion that every totm i sts then week after i lose 2lbs

so to lose weight i need to eat some of my weekies fri/sat/sun and then stick to 29 next 4 days and have tons of sex

HOOOOOOOOOOO-BLOOOOOOODYYYYYYY-RAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY

Excellent news about both measurements and weight, blondes - very well done you! TOTM is always a bitch, remember that!

I think your plan of eating more of weeklies at weekend and then being good at week works very well indeed.

well done Blondes on your 2lb!! phewww

NoWay - I like the grey and black one too, very nice

I've also got some stuff to charity shop, I refuse to wear it again. all my clothes are too big - time to hit the shops!

well done blondes!!!! iona and piffle

Noway i like the poppy dress but it is hard to pick without seeing them on

noway I prefer the poppy one but like vnmum hard without seeing on.

Wooooooo Hoooooooo blondes yay so pleased :)

Well done Iheart, piffle and androbbob - and way to go Blondes!!!!!! -all is well in the world

debs - have one week where you eat all your dailies and all your weeklies, exercise every day for that week to bring your flagging metabolism back up and then restart the diet the following week with low carb (not no carb, but low carb) - got to be worth a try? Also eat little and often to prime metabolism, i.e don't go to work and eat nothing all day [wags finger sternly]. I eat around 6 times a day - breakfast, low pointed snack mid morning, lunch, low pointed snack mid afternoon, dinner, and selection of fruit in the evening; touch wood it works for me.

NoWay - I like the black and grey, more sort of sultry and chic imo (although don't know that my opinion counts, I look like a bag lady most of the time )

I love the grey black dress too and dead easy to accessorise
Blondes that is fantabulous news!!!! Well done... Totm is evil I now know that :(
Debs you really need to plan and prepare better your body is grabbing everything you eat and storing it as it never knows when its next meal is coming.
I used to ditch breakfast and could never lose weight
Bizarre but regular smaller meals might be your saviour

Perhaps tell us what you like, your rough budget and we can all offer help?

NoWay - when I packaged all my fat clothes up for Oxfam dh said "Is that wise - you might need them again?"

Finally - if anyone sees me on here again today please could you shout at me and tell me to go and write my boring assignment?

hmc, I believe our DH's must have been separated at birth!

debs I agree with everyone on here - you now have PROOF that not eating your dailies and weeklies stops you from losing weight, so relinquish that control and try to do it properly as you're supposed to - what have you got to lose?

Well done Piffle Iona and Blondes :D

Debs I don't know how you survive with not eating your points. I would just be so hungry all the time.

I'm not brave enough to give away my "fat" clothes. However, they are boxed up in the roof. When they've been up there a year, I will give them all away.

I know that sounds cowardly, but I'm still getting my head around being thinner!

littlefish throw away clothes or you will grow back into them

the clothes you are wearing now may get a tad tight and you climb the ladder to loft and get next size up down and wear them

if you dont have larger clothes you have to diet to get back into your 'now' clothes

blondes went to gym, had a wee (TMI) and was back to starting w8!!!!! so at least am STS!!!!!!! Am snacking on crunchy carrots and eat loads of steamed veg ( not potatoes though)....my 2 maximum 3 workdays - yes, I do struggle to eat maximum but well and truly manage it on the rest.....might just be that I am at that w8 my wibblytummywrinkly old body wants...... but today i don't care as Small Child got into his first choice school.....have I mentioned this before?? Ha ha!! !!!! Hallelujah!!!!!!

ps hmc well done for your self control staying off here!!!!

litlefish am never having another baby, but keep old clothes in loft so can understand....erm...no, I can't!! Mine is sentimental!!! Are you sad you have lost weight, you dafty!!!! Of course not!!!!! Chuck em oooooot!!!!!!! And go shopping woohoo!!!!!! My big sis has 4 stone to lose and when she starts to lose, she never chucks...so she never gets past half a stone..............you have just got to get non green and be a spendaholic xxx Good luck!!!! :)

nwnh the red and black one for definite!!!!!!! You will stand ooot a mile...and that is a good thing xx :) PS have you red bag or heels too as that wld top it off xx

I think I'm just a bit of a hoarder! I have the baby clothes too - dd is 6 and we'll never have another.

I know you're right Debs and Blondes. Perhaps I'll have a sort out this weekend.

lfish i have old jeans still sitting tho so call me a hypocrite....!!! My excuse is that I am a miserly old cow.....plus, can anyone inspire me re buying jeans???? Just tried Baxter from moto topshop as saw them on a WW online post as being brill and yeah they fitted but looked dead casual...for £40+ I want sensational not casual...and Next is great but am in between sizes with them so no luck there!!

im always right littlefish :)

Have you tried New Look? They have some great jeans at really good prices, so I don't mind buying them and only wearing them for a little while

at Blondes.
