= 7.00 over 30 days | I posted a few weeks ago that I had joined Weight Watchers and was doing very well. I weighed in this week and met 3 goals all at once. For the first time my weight loss exceeded 70 lbs...total loss of 73 lbs.  Secondly, I weighed less than 200 lbs for the first time in 30 years ...198 lbs. Weight Watchers celebrates each 10% loss of your initial weight and I hit my third 10%. I guess that means I'm only 70% of the man I once was. .gif "Drogar BigGrin(DBG)") I've been on the program for 26 weeks. My ultimate goal is 190 lbs so only 8 more to go. I plan to gnaw on a pork rib or two and eat a small amount of pulled pig at the picnic this Saturday but it will be in moderation. This weight will NEVER be gained back. |

That is awesome. How long have you been on the program? I just started back today and have very similar goals. I hope I can do as well as you have. Great job!  | |

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

I know that it probably hasn't been easy, Stuart!
Kudos to you for hanging in there. I can see a completely new wardrobe in the picture for this Fall!!!

Good for you and I am sure that you feel a whole lot better to boot!
Congratulations on such a fantastic achievement!

CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!!!!
I hope your goal is reached quickly and maintained for the rest of your life~
I lost over 80 pounds a few years ago, walked 6-8 miles 3 times a week and ate all the things "THEY" say we are supposed to.
BOOM - HEART ATTACK
Hit me hard. I thought good grief - if this is the result I don't wanna be healthy...
Finally a doc got it through my think skull. If I had NOT done all the things I had been doing; I never would have survived the heart attack.
That was 7 years ago, and I've back slid and gained and stopped walking( injury and never started again)...
LOML just survived a cancer incident.
We've just gotten started back on track and hopefully will be able to do well. Can't hope for the success you've had - but anything's got to be better than what I've let myself work back towards 
Thanks for the motivation and again-
CONGRATULATIONS to you!!!!!!!!! | |
