So I didn't see a 2010 thread for WW Brides yet so figured I would start one on my own. I have been on WW before and love it because it really works and makes sense. I got lazy in the last couple of years with tracking points and some of the weight has crept back on. I'm now ready to get back into tip-top shape for our wedding and look forward to becoming healthier. I am doing WW Online as well as going to the weekly meetings because it keeps me on track and accountable. Having to actually go to the meeting to weigh in once a week is very motivating when you're thinking of having that extra glass of wine or snack when you know you shouldn't...lol Happy posting

hey, i'm not on WW - i've done a similar one before and it didn't work for me, really didn't get anything from going each week - i didn't have alot to lose at the time, and felt people weren't happy i was there. So i'm doing it myself....weigh in each week on my own scales - at the absolute most i want to lose 2st for may 2010, but ideally it would be 11/2 stones...how about you lady?

Hey Mrs. D (To Be)! Yeah, I used to feel that way when I went to meetings too but I don't even worry about it anymore. I just like to go to weigh in and then get some new recipes and tips while I'm there I'm trying to lose about 25-35 lbs. depending on how fit I feel I'm a size 8 right now but was a size 2 not that long ago (well it doesn't feel like it was that long ago anyway!) but I think I'm happier and feel healthier when I'm wearing around a size 4-6. So hopefully I will be there again by April of this year

I've been on WW a couple of times over the last few years. I've actually liked it. I did lose 75lbs on it, but then life happened and I've almost gained it all back now. Since Sept 08 though, I've lost 17lbs again, by going back. I had surgery on my knee in Nov, so I was sorta of a slacker, then Christmas and New Years happened again! I'm back on track now! My mom and I are heading to meetings again next week. I'm looking forward to losing weight again. Good luck to everyone, I know it's not easy but we can do it!!!!

Hi Lisaloo....just wanted to say good luck with your class next week....we should check in after each weigh in and give each other some motivation and well dones! My first weigh in of the start of my healthy eating is on wednesday....see you all then!

Hi girls!

Great job on the 17 lb. loss Lisa!

So, I had my first weigh-in this morning to get my "start weight"... and wow.... was I shocked by the number I saw on that scale!!! I am actually really surprised that my pants still fit me after seeing that number (I guess they have been a little tighter than usual though)! ...lol! I am SO glad I didn't wait another day to get started again! I have my work cut out for me. I will check in again next weigh-in with good news hopefully. I'm optimistic. I've done it before and have even more incentive to kick butt again I can't wait to start trying some dresses on so I have to get to work! Good luck!

Good Luck vgirl17 - I'm going to keep track of my weight loss on a spreadsheet, but i'm going to print it off and put on the fridge - means i see what weight i am everytime i go for the yummy stuff!lol

[vgirl17]

Oooh Mrs. D! I love your weight loss ticker! I'm going to have to steal it! What a great idea about keeping your weight loss progress posted on your fridge! I would consider doing that too but I'm too embarassed to let my fiance know how much I weigh now! Uggh! Just more motivation to stay on track.

phewt dont worry about your man seeing it, if he is anything like mine, he won't know whats normal weight for a girl and whats not!!
