Introduction

Well, I guess it's baby weight - I gained with each
pregnancy and didn't lose any! I'm now below the weight I
was before I was pregnant with #2!

Welcome to the group!

Hello, I am just starting my WW journey. I lost 25kg
after my first pregnancy with WW. My second son is now
six months old. I've piled it on again and it's time to
take action.

At least I know it works.

I have 30kg to lose this time, argh! In the first two
weeks I have lost

3kg.

Anyone else out there trying to lose baby weight?

Judy

Yup, unfortunately ... my *baby* was born over 19 years ago.
<grin> But, better late than never is the attitude I took -
and I did finally tackle the weight problem ... reached goal
and have been maintaining for almost a year. YOU can do it
too, Judy.

Congrats on the great loss so far, and good luck wishes are
being sent your way for continued success on your journey. I
hope to see you posting here often.

Hi, Judy, Congratulations on re-joining Weight Watchers. I'm
not trying to lose baby weight but I am trying to keep any
extra weight off.

Hi Judy and welcome to the group. I don't have a baby to
blame the weight on unfortunately, but I did lose just over
20kg, and have kept it off for 6 months. Here's the welcome
notice to get you started in the group. Hope to see you
posting often!

Welcome to this great newsgroup where you'll receive lots of
support, advice, and encouragement. Once a week on Sundays,
I post a list of links that newcomers to asdww might find
useful. You may want to look for that later in the week, or
do a backwards search for last Sunday's post.

In the meantime, here's our FAQ:

Frequently seen acronyms on this NG: NSV = Non-Scale Victory
WOE = Way of Eating WOL = Way of Life (Living) OP = on
Points or On Program DH = Dear or Darling Husband
DS/DD/DGD/etc = Dear or Darling Son, Daughter,
Granddaughter, etc WI = Weigh-in

Other acronyms:

Here's a short synopsis of the USA program by Joyce -

How many points you can eat is only based on your current
weight, as you lose weight those points allowed will
decrease (logic is that your body will need less to
operate). At 183 pounds and based on the new US flexpoints
system, you will have a set point target of 24. In addition
to this you are allowed 35 flexpoints to be used throughout
the week ... as well as any activity points you earn on a
particular day. When your weight drops to 175, your target
drops to 22 points ... weight reaches 150, target once
again drop to 20 points. 3 servings of dairy of recommended
per day, 5 servings of fruit and veggies, minimum of 6
glasses of water.

To calculate food and activity points, I love this computer
desktop calculator ...
zythra.compoints.exeOpen ↗

The basic plan is easy. Eat at least your minimum daily
number of points. Points do not carry over from day to day.
You are allotted 35 weekly flexpoints to be used at your
discretion ... can divide them up and use daily (would be an
additional 5 points per day) or save them and use them for a
special occassion during the week. Activity points are
earned based when exercising, but can ONLY be used on the
day they are earned.

If you can afford $15/month, the online ww program might be
a great thing for you to look into. There is lots of
information available, as well as the food point database
and journaling system.

Joyce WW starting weight: 228.8 - 2/5/02 current weight:
133.3 Lifetime: 4/4/03

Please note that if you live in onther countries (UK,
Australia, NZ, Europe), the Points plans are different. The
UK and Australia/NZ calculate points based on saturated fat
and total kilojoules. Most of Europe calculates based on
total fat and total kilojoules. The desktop calculator above
can handle all of these programs.

Disclaimer: As an unmoderated Usenet newsgroup, asdww is
unusual in that most of the people who participate are
respectful, considerate folks who freely share their
experience with and knowledge of WW, weight loss, and
maintenance. Yet occasionally, spammers, trolls, and flamers
show up to post advertising, false information, insults, and
the like. Nearly all of the time, people like this are just
trying to yank someone's chain. Most of the regulars on this
newsgroup offer their experience as a suggestion to try if
you're stuck, but are quick to advise that each person has
to find what works for him/herself. If someone posts
something that doesn't sound right to you, ask the
newsgroup, ask your WW leader, or ask your health
professional.

Much success on your weight loss journey! WW works!
