    AARRGG!!!!

    I overslept!
    I missed the meeting this morning.
    I will be at the next one on Saturday, you can bet on that.
    How did it go ladies?
    Anyone else oversleep?:lol:

    I am so miffed.
    I was really looking forward to going this morning.

    Me too!!! I just now got out of the shower ... I'm going to go to the Monday night one as my 'free' one and then sign up on Saturday, I think .. since I know I want to do it.

    Well I'm glad I was not the only one who overslept:lol:

    Wed2x, how was it?
    I am really interested in it.
    I want to go to my free meeting and most likely sign up at the same time.
    Do you think it is worth it?:allears: do tell

    Well I am lifetime, so yes its worth it. I hit my goal almost 4 years ago, then got pregnant with my last. I had to stop during the pregnancy, but resumed after she was born. I hit my goal again about 4 months later.
    I have maintained my weight since (my daughter is 2-1/2).
    I went back since I feel like I need the accountability. I have been shoving whatever I want in my mouth and I just don't feel "good". I also would not mind losing another 10.

    Went

    I went, although I couldn't stay for the whole meeting. I've struggled with not knowing people too! Everyone is really friendly thought. I'm down another 2.8lbs this week. :)

    Thanks elims! It was much needed, as I've had 2 weeks of low loss or a slight gain and I was getting discouraged:lol:

    I get discouraged easily with those sort of plateaus ... so it's great that you fought thru it!! :)

    What actually happens at the meetings? After the pre-meeting weigh-ins ... enough to keep you interested in coming back each week?

    Hey Bren, this sounds like an idea that might work - Monday nites are pretty convenient and maybe i can stick with this, we know how well my joining the gym went:lol: Did you guys already sign up online or do you wait till the meeting? Where exactly is the church? i know i know a lot of questions, it is just this is the first time i have seen this thread:)

    Ok, I've got a dilema. I got sick last Thursday with Strep throat. Doc gave me Z-Pak for 5 days. I was no better this morning than I was when I went last week. So I went again. Doc gave me a different antibiotic, pain pills (because it kills me to swallow), and steroids for the swelling in my throat. I've been told that steroids make you gain weight. I certainly don't want to join WW tonight if I'm gonna bloat all up for the next 6 days, only to weigh in next Monday night and have gained 10 pounds. What do you girls think? Would it be a waste of my time & money to join tonight or should I just wait til next Monday?
    BTW, I'm not contagious. Since I've already taken antibiotics for 5 days, I'm good to go. At least that's what my doctor said.

    Aw girl, sorry to hear that. Now if it were me and there were any chance that my very next weighin would show weight gain, i would probably wait, but that is just me. If you do decide to wait, i will too so we can go and be newbies together - hope ya feel better.

    Ok, I'm at work til 4. But I know you have my cell # too. Either one is fine.

    And no, I'm thinking of the right person. You're gonna die when you see how much weight I've gained in the past couple of months. Can you say oink oink??? (Because I've sure been pigging out) :lol:

    I am in on MOnday night

    I would love to go and lose about 30 pounds. It would help me if someone told me what I needed to eat instead of what I don't need to eat!! LOL! I have gained too much weight this summer with a desk job and no exercise.

    Do I just come to the meeting on MOnday night and decide then? I have never done this sort of thing before and would love to try it!!

    Every week you discuss something different. One week we talked about preparing to go out to dinner and rehearsing in our heads what we'd order so we would make good choices. With the start of the Olympics we began discussing sports and getting active. I think the Saturday meeting is great because Tonia is really upbeat and fun. She is incredibly motivating. The other people at the meeting share their successes and everyone helps each other. There's a lot of celebration and encouragement. For me I go back because I'm the only one in my house watching what I eat and trying to lose... so it helps to have that big group of people that are also working through it too!
