I was cleaning out our extra bedroom before my sister moved in and came across my old WW WI cards
I had no idea that I had even held on to them.
It was kind of neat and sad to look at them
I really wish I would of stuck with it before when I had joined
But I guess there is a time and a place for everything
And that was not the right time for me
First go around:
I had joined the end of Feb 05 and WI at 238.8...oh how I wish I could be there right now
I stuck with it a total of 7 weeks and had lost a total of 6.6
Not sure why I stopped going
I know I was busy with weddings and was in the process of planning my own wedding
Guessing I was just not taking time for myself
Second Time:
This was a few months after our wedding but RIGHT before I was preg-o
Starting weight at this point was 246...oh how I wish I could be there right now
I was only with it a total of 5 weeks and lost a total of 4.8lbs
The week I stopped going was the weekend I found out that I was preg.
I really wish I would of stuck with it
Third Time:
Joining weight is 290.8...hurts to even type it
Once again we are trying to get preg.
I have an appointment set up with my doc next week
I am going to talk to her about sticking with WW while preg.
I feel like it is AA for eating.
Really do not want the WI's at that point but I would like to join the meetings
Guess I will wait to see what the Doc says and then talk to WW people....I guess first I have to get preg.
I really want this time to work!

I'm in the same boat, although I've rejoined more than 3 times! I found an old weigh in book where it said I was 217.6--I remember feeling horrible about that as I had been down to 193 at one point. However, I'm now exactly 50 pounds ABOVE that! Ugh!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with TTC. I'd be interested in hearing what your doctor says. When I found out I was pregnant, my doctor encouraged me to continue journaling, but told me to take a break from points (I guess for mental reasons more than anything!)
It IS like AA for eating- and this new program Momentum really addresses the emotional issues that most of us have with food!
ReplyDeleteI joined a few times before-once online for 3 months but not having to 'see' people made me less accountable...but I did lose, and again via a friend- I didn't have the moula (student)so she gave me trackers and a slider... that didn't work at all.
This time I signed up in January for 6 months! Now with the pressure on, (membership runs out in July and I want lifetime!!!)I am shifting into high gear!
You are right to check with your doctor...Good luck & keep us posted :-)
I joined in 2002 and lost 50lbs and got to 208, then thought I was "good" and over 6 years proceeded to gain 70lbs. I am now down to 239.2, and it does stink having to lose the same pounds over and over. I feel like this time I am doing it for the right reasons...to get healthy, not to look good!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on getting pregnant!
