Four pounds is incredible for a week! <BR/><BR/>Now for you, MyKidsMom...don't feel bad at all! I have done WeightWatchers successfully twice (although I obviously stopped the program's principles and regained...oops) and learned that it's not at all unusual to lose little, nothing, or even gain even when you are doing the "right" thing. Some things that have contributed to that for me in the past...1.) a big loss previously and my body was adjusting, 2.) losing 1 lb fat + gaining 1 lb muscle = no loss, but better health and fewer inches! and 3.) changing my food routine. After working to lose for a while my body would get into a rut from eating the same foods so all I would do is switch up a few items and voila! Weight loss! I hope some of this is helpful for you! <BR/><BR/>And it's also good to know that at WW, their scale would pick up a 0.2 lb loss when mine at home was "the same" because it wasn't quite that precise! <BR/><BR/>And last trick I learned doing WW--look at not just the low fat food items, but see if they have a sugar free version. It usually has fewer calories than the low fat stuff. My examples of those things are sugar free bread and jello pudding cups (one of my favorite diet snacks). <BR/><BR/>Lastly (wow...sorry for this extremely long comment!)...thank you for the love and encouragement over at my blog. It's nice to know that there are people who care and who you care about and yet you've never even heard their voice! It's crazy, but it is also a good feeling. Thanks for checking up on me and for the bloggy encouragement!Kayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16037837655750384138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32378954.post-32278503594125957182009-01-22T20:59:00.000-08:002009-01-22T20:59:00.000-08:00Well Im with Nikki.

I've lost 2 lbs so far, but my "diet" started about two weeks ago. You'll probably start seeing those pounds drop off next week... I know it always seems to take a while to my body jump started. :oP <BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work, and thanks for the tips! I LOVE nuts, especially almonds. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and the give away sounds fun!

LOL Please forgive me, but I was actually trying to figure out if we were talking about the same visitor here, or whether you had some male relative visiting your family,lol. As you can see, my sense of humor is as odd as always;)<BR/><BR/>And I definitely do pay very close attention to the ingredients in the low-calorie,low-fat items. I don't buy most prepackaged diet convenience items for that very reason. But the cheese and items such as that are mainly made with skim milk as the factor for lowering fat. I've actually considered being a nutritionist when I go back to school (one day) because I find the whole study of eating vs.health quite fascinating.MyKidsMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08829690651886059542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32378954.post-7778821657082822732009-01-22T12:21:00.000-08:002009-01-22T12:21:00.000-08:00Oh, and I wanted to mention something about low fa...Oh, and I wanted to mention something about low fat stuff. They sometimes have more calories than the full fat things. You probably already knew that, but I wanted to say it just in case you didn't.Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01252557235709012777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32378954.post-21512233243082555322009-01-22T12:20:00.000-08:002009-01-22T12:20:00.000-08:00Please don't hate me!

I don't think I actually lost four pounds because I don't think I had actually gained all six of those (definitely four, though). Anyway, there you go. <BR/><BR/>Since you brought it up, I have a visitor, too. He came yesterday, and I don't feel well. It probably has something to do with the fact that he hasn't been here since before I got pregnant with Daniel.Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01252557235709012777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32378954.post-65829882399953218042009-01-22T11:51:00.000-08:002009-01-22T11:51:00.000-08:00wooot - thanks for the shout-out!

That works for me, since I have a bad habit of not eating lunch when the kiddies do (hey, they are seated nicely at a table - it's time to get some stuff done!)<BR/>Anyway, I just started my whole fitness thing this week, so I let you know my weigh-in later on. :) I'm hoping for some pay-off for all the aerobic boxing and stepping and such!Mrs. Frogsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06067224159061270063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32378954.post-76030063445333190732009-01-22T11:28:00.000-08:002009-01-22T11:28:00.000-08:00Marva, there are definitely times when a person sh...Marva, there are definitely times when a person should NOT focus too much on dieting (because we all know how distracting that can be). I myself waited until I was able to get my tooth infection under control, my body had enough going on with that. And with all the sickness you have going on there with your babies, you really have more important things to do right now. But it was sweet of you to take time to comment and be encouraging! I truly appreciate it.MyKidsMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08829690651886059542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32378954.post-71828895932327895592009-01-22T11:17:00.000-08:002009-01-22T11:17:00.000-08:00Hi!

I just wanted to check in......now I feel bad......my weight loss is not going so well....it's actually not going at ALL!<BR/><BR/>I am going to walk this afternoon though and I am eating a LOT less, so those are ++++++'s!<BR/><BR/>I could try harder.....<BR/><BR/>Kuddos to you though. You are doing so well and it'll be great to see this week's and next week's weight loss all at once. That'll be a boost!<BR/><BR/>Many blessings!Marvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05794915425864527938noreply@blogger.com
