Jen - That's an awesome loss!

So I weighed in this morning (1 lb heavier than my scale at home), so I have 21 lbs to get back to my Lifetime goal.

But I am excited to start. It was a good meeting, lots of new/interesting tools being rolled out, lots of energy in the room. It wasn't as crowded as I remembered, either, which was a plus.

I am just going to focus on the basics - tracking all of my food this week, measuring, planning healthy meals. I can always incorporate activity, and higher tech apps and stuff like that down the road.

I have a birthday party at a restaurant tonight, so that will be my first challenge, but that's life. I know when I've been successful in the past, I've been able to enjoy parties and functions in moderation, and just get back on track the next day, and it never hindered the weight loss process. The "flexible restraint" model is definitely better for me than being overly restrictive, so I'll just try to make some good choices, enjoy an indulgence or two, and track it all.

I just weigh in and have to go back to do so on Mondays (I basically do drop in hours) but feel like I need a meeting..it's hard with the baby (not so little baby, but too big to take and not be a total distraction)

I agree- GREAT JOB!!

And good job Christine, getting back on track. Let us know how the party goes. Those are always the hardest for me!

Good luck Melissa!! You can lose that in a week or two and you'll be back to where you are in no time!

Re: OFFICIAL WW 2013 THREAD

I rejoined again on Saturday. Have about 33-34 lbs to lose. Going away in 2 months I would love to lose 20 lbs though I know that's not so realistic. But if I do lose the 20 lbs I will probably buy myself a bikini to wear.Chat Icon I haven't worn one in 3 1/2 years.

I am so excited and focused this time. Hope I can keep it up. I've been eating healthy since Wednesday so....

Good luck to everyone!

Re: OFFICIAL WW 2013 THREAD

I joined in early December (online); weigh in day is Friday.

I had a total of 15 to lose and had gone down 6.8 but over the holidays I 'took off' and gained back 1.4 Chat Icon

Got back to the program today, hoping to lose what I gained back by weigh-in this week so I can really start fresh next week.

GREAT job with the WI, Chikita!

Just wanted to say that I am NOT a technology person at all, but I downloaded the barcode scanner to my phone and was loving it when I went food shopping yesterday. I was trying to figure out which yogurt would be best to buy, so I scanned a whole bunch of them to figure out point values. I probably looked insane - LOL - but it was pretty cool!

Re: OFFICIAL WW 2013 THREAD

Where did you download the scanner?

I just downloaded the app, but don't remember seeing that option.

Is it quicker to use the barcode or enter the points in the calc?

It's actually a separate app you would have to download.

I think it is faster to scan - BUT - I wish the scanner was attached to the regular app like it is in my fitness pal (you scan and it will pop right into your menu).

Yes, as azoodie said, it is a separate app. I just searched "Weight Watchers" at the app store and it brought up the WW mobile app, as well as the barcode scanner. They are both free.

The scanner is quicker because you can just point and it pops up on your phone, but I noticed not all products scan (at which point you can either enter the barcode manually or use the calculator).

I think there are still some glitches being worked out, but it's still pretty cool. Just another tool to have in the arsenal of making life easier. I set my mom up with it, too, and even she is using it (and she's a total technophobe).

It keeps a list or "history" of what you scan, too, so you can go back and look, and I think the list is even sortable.

Re: OFFICIAL WW 2013 THREAD

Today was my first official weekly weigh in, and I lost 5 lbs. in my first week.

I'm very happy that it's a loss...but I'm a bit confused as I was down 6.4 lbs. after just a few days, and I haven't gone over my points at all.

Oh well! Hopefully the number keeps going down!
