Hello, my name is Janie and I am an addict. I suffer from two addictions, food and purses (not necessarily in that order).

I have been on WW since Jan. 18, 2006. I have done well I think. I made my 10% the week before memorial day. As of last thursday (WI day) I am down 36.5 lbs. I have not set a fianl goal, I don't usually set mini goals either. I am only hoping to change my lifestyle. I am extremely fortunate to be involved with a man who loves me for me, not my shape or size. It also helps that he likes large women.

I have wanted to make a change for a while and made a deal with him, if my blood pressure goes up or my blood tests come back bad or borderline I am going on a diet. I told him a tiny fib. Nothing has changed, but I started WW anyway. He is extremely supportive. As long as I am happy. He has even been sort of following the plan with me. That helps alot. I don't have to worry about fixing something for him different from my meals.

I found collar bones the other day, and when laying on my side, I can feel my hop bones. Isn't it funny the small things that can make us happy?

Janie

Hi Janie, welcome to the board. I am Karen, one of the cl's here. I also follow WW and find it works great for me as well. You will find that the ladies on this board follow no set plan.Some count calories, a few on WW.

Hi, Janie and WELCOME to the board!!! Congratulations on reaching your 10% milestone with WW. I also follow the plan (since 3/18/06) and should hopefully reach my 10% goal (27 pounds) next Tuesday. I go for my weigh in tonight though and I doubt I'll lose the 5 pounds I'll need to hit that goal, which is why I think I'll hit it next week.


Anyway, this group is fabulous and offers so much support as well as tips and ideas.


I look forward to getting to know you better.
