Great job Maybride! I would take any loss happily! Congrats on a fresh start Lisa I will be joining you soon

Hi ladies!!!! Hi Mrs. D and Lisa!!!!!! Memorial weekend is over and a new week has begun!!! Thank goodness for me!!! Back on track now although I haven't weighed in since right before my birthday but I do plan on going this Saturday so I'll let you all know how that goes Hopefully I haven't done too much damage I've been so wishy washy for what seems like forever but I haven't lost hope. I'm headed back to the gym again tonight and have to get serious (this feels like deja vu) !!! I was in a bathing suit all weekend and it was fine but I KNOW how much better I would have felt if I had been getting my butt to the gym!!! Soo... since summer is officially here I have to get a move on!!! Mrs. D - Great job on the 3 lbs!!!! I'm getting there... it's been a struggle for a while but I need to just stop being lazy Seeing your great progress motivates me to try and do the same You go girl!!!! MayBride - Don't worry! Today is a new day so you get to start over!!! Sofylina - Great job on the excercise!!! Hope weigh in payed off for you! I wouldn't worry about it though, as long as you're being active your body will definitely thank you for it even if the scale doesn't Lisa - I feel like we've been in the same boat lately! Don't worry! Today is a new day so lets start doing fantastic NOW I will make it to this Saturdays meeting NO MATTER WHAT!!! I don't care how many more BBQs and get-togethers get in my way now... I'm going to count my points now if it kills me!!! Hahahaha! We can do this!!!!! Sandra - That's the great thing about WW! You get to start over every day! I know holiday weekends are killer but now we can all get back on track and serious about what we need and WANT to do Anyway, good luck everyone and here's to a great week!!!! We can do this!!!

Some great stories to keep us all motivated. well i haven't changed - thats been well over a month! gutted! but i haven't been doing as much exercise as my knees have been giving me a bit of bother - 26 and getting knee problems already! there is no hope for me!lol weigh in is tomorrow, and i'd quite like to have lost a wee pound, but probably not! staying the same isn't too bad tho! on a positive note, i have found a dress i absolutely love! i'm going to try get an appointment to try it on this week so will update you if i get one and how i get on. i really want to buy a uk size 10 dress, which i think is an american size 8...just now i'm a uk 12, so i want to try the 10 on, to see how much i need to loose to get into it..to see if it is realistic to aim for this. anyway, i'll update you with my weigh in details tomorrow ladies. Thanks Mrs. D! Yes, I was SUPER BAD.... but I have the rest of this week to try and make up for some of it at least That's great that you found a dress!!!! How exciting!!! Good luck with weigh in!

Hello ladies! I'm still here!!! I went to weigh in last week to get my new "start weight" and I had gained .8 from the last time I was there. Not great but at least I know where I stand now. Well this weekend is my birthday and we're all supposed to go out to dinner tonight so I doubt I make it to weigh in tomorrow morning. My family likes to party so I doubt I get to bed at a decent hour Nice to see all of you on here! Keep up the great work!!!!

I would say that it was probably close to 90 but it felt more like 85 because of the breeze. The sunset around 7:15 and I knew that going in and that is why we wanted to have our family photo session prior to the ceremony otherwise all of the photos would have been in the dusk. Thanks Camie!

That's fantastic! Keep up the great work! Lisa! - I know what you mean! I've been following points (but not writing down, only in my head! LOL) but haven't been to a meeting in a couple of weeks . I think I need to change my day to Thursday nights instead of Sat. morning because we always have so much going on over the weekends. I just hate weighing-in in the evening. Adurrell - !!! I think you are my WW twin! LOL! I LOVE my wine too! I have been REALLY unmotivated for the past couple of months but this thread has really helped me to not slip backwards until I can get back into the swing of things! I'm an April bride too... but 2010 so I gotta get my butt into gear ASAP! Good Luck!

I've taken lots and lots of pictures of everything and will be sure to share those as well. The resort is currently running at about 35% occupancy which means there are no issues finding chairs by the pool and getting quick service. The downfall of the low occupancy is that MP has decided to cut costs by closing the disco (they actually said it is closed for maint but we believe it just isn't economically feasible to keep it open when there are so few people). They have also closed one of the pool bar restauant but the other restaurant is not far and any of the wait staff will take your order and deliver your food. We've also heard that their occupancy is going to be even less next week - it's crazy the effect the media has had (swine flu blowout). Moon Palace Grand is amazing. Switch your reservations to that side if you can. Camie Congratulations Cami! You're a married woman now! I can't wait to read your review and see some pics I'm glad everything worked out for you! Just a quick question whenever you get a chance, was your wedding at 6pm? What was the weather like during your ceremony and what time did the sun set? My wedding is around the same time next year at 5pm. Is it still really hot at that time? Thanks!

I have not been exercising, but I have not cheated once, so hopefully that pays off. I am getting married on April 27, 2010, in Grand Cayman, off a cuise. We already have 39 guests booked Can't wait to lose this weight! and Good Luck! Wow, that's a lot of people already booked! Congratulations!

I find if i don't go to them, my eating plan suffers for the rest of the week. So i went last night for the first time in about 5-6 weeks...and man did i suffer! felt great today for it! hoping i lose something this week, even if it is just a half pound...fingers crossed! That's fantastic! Keep it up!

We know it works (if you stick to it and will have us brides in great shape in no time! Good luck and feel free to post away!

Great job Royal! Keep it up! I stayed the same this week. Better than a gain but still shows my lack of motivation. I keep hanging on hoping to snap out of it. Hopefully it will be sooner than later. This thread helps me from completely going off track

Quote: Originally Posted by Mrs D To Be! Hey ladies Well I have to be honest, i'm doing absolutely rubbish these days! Over the past 2 weeks i've gained 2lbs and fear it may be more this week...we went away for the weekend and since then i've just not been able to get into it. Only went to one class last week, and the same this week...we haven't had time to go our shopping either, so thats been a big problem for us...means at dinner time the only real option is takeaway. I'm aiming for starting back on monday...I know I should be aiming for this weekend...but its easter weekend! bad fiona, i know! Hope your all doing better than me xxxxx I know what you mean Mrs. D I've had a hard time with focusing on WW for a while now and I'm just realizing that my wedding is a year away now! I haven't even started to try dresses on and I keep procrastinating with getting REALLY serious. You've done so great so far and you're my inspiration Keep it up! We can do this!

Quote: Originally Posted by JCrosby Hi guys, Just wanted to check in and let you know I lost a pound. Every pound counts right? Keep up the good work ladies & stay strong through easter this weekend. Jennie Great job J! Yes, I will take a pound loss in a heartbeat! So, I'm just posting my progress from last weekend .... and I lost .6! Not quite a pound but I'm happy with any loss at this point!

Quote: Originally Posted by Royal_lady10 Hey ladies keep up the good work..! just did a weigh in.. and am down 2lbs.. small but still a little less of me Great job Lady!!! I hope to have as good a week as you!! 2 lbs. is Great!!!

Well I finally made it back to a meeting this last Saturday. I wish I had good news but I gained .6 since the last time I went three weeks ago. It could have been worse I guess. Making sure that I post my progress on here helps to keep me accountable. I don't want to have to keep changing my ticker in the wrong direction so I have to do good this week! Unfortunately this week has already gotten off to a rocky start. We went wine tasting in Napa for one of our friend's birthdays this weekend so now I have the rest of the week to try and make up for it. Hopefully I can do it! I have been lazy about tracking my points the past few weeks so this week I have already entered everything from this weekend and today. Wish me luck!

Jennie! You will get LOTS of great support on here! Well ladies I know I've been MIA lately but I just got over being sick for the past two weeks and have been a bad girl missing my meetings I'm finally starting to feel normal and me and my 16 y/o have been going to the gym since this past Tuesday so hopefully weigh in this weekend will not be a total shocker! LOL I know what you mean Lisa! Don't worry, we are on the right track to success! All of the gym workouts will eventually catch up with us in a good way

Well looks like we've all been pretty busy! I've been hitting the gym since last week and feel great! Unfortunately the scale does not match how good I feel right now and I gained 1.2 this week I know I'm on the right track so next week I'm SURE will be a good one! Well, I'm off to go look at my ring to see if it's finished! Hope to hear from you guys

I did work really hard at the gym last week! Went up the loft at the weekend, and brought down loads of clothes THAT FIT ME now!! so feeling great! Lets hope it keeps up! HOLY MOLY!!! HOW did I miss this post!!! That's fantastic Mrs D!!!!! Way to go! We just started our new gym membership and I took my first yoga class last night Tonight is cardio for me so hopefully I will start to see more results. Gotta get my lazy butt in gear!

I got up and went to a meeting this morning (in a snowstorm) and when I got there was told it was cancelled. I did WW a few years ago and had results but need to get bacl on track. Graduate school has been bad for my body and I am getting married in less than 3 months and need to feel good. So.. here I am. I just wanted to say hi to all you WW ladies. Yamille! Great to see another smiley face This thread has really helped me so hopefully it will help you too! We have some really great gals on here. Good Luck with WW!

He proposed to me with a pink sapphire (he knows I LOVE them) so that we could pick the diamond out together My man really knows me! LOL! I'll let you all know when I've posted pics in the Engagement ring thread once it's set

Oh, we also just switched gyms so hopefully that will give me the kick in the butt that I need. We can take our kids to this one so it will be easier for us to get over there! Hopefully I will be able to post a nice loss next weekend

Hi girls! Don't worry we all know that we will have some ups and downs along the way but we are still going in the right direction in the end Great job Royal! It's still a loss and I would take that any day! I was a bad girl this week (well what's new lately huh?), I didn't make it to the weigh in BUT we did finally find my cuhion this weekend!!! We drove down to the City yesterday morning (that's why I missed my weigh in) to look at some cushions that our jeweler had brought in... and OMG! He had "the one"! I am so happy the search is over! We forgot to bring our camera but my fiance managed to get a couple of blurry ones with his blackberry camera. Here it is!:

Liz I guess they must be behind because I signed and faxed my contract last week too and I haven't heard anything yet...

Hello ladies! Well even after having not such a great week and dreading weigh in today I still lost 1.2 lbs.!!! Guess the rest of my week evened out the few bad days! Woot Woot! As long as that number continues to go down I'm a happy camper
