  1. All right, my first weigh-in back on program after the baby,
    and I've lost 6 lbs!

    Well, some of that is because I wore jeans last week. I
    figure a lot of that is water weight that my body is letting
    go of from my pregnancy (the baby is two weeks yesterday).

    I'm down about 25 from my all-time high during
    pregnancy of 202.

    The program is going fairly smoothly for me. The 10 extra
    points I get for nursing help! Plus I'm walking 1-3 miles
    each day - as much as the baby and my body can handle.

    Now, if I could only keep up this rate for the next 5 weeks
    I'll be back at goal in no time! (Kidding, I realize that it
    will take at least 6 weeks....)

    Best, Diane

  4. Wow, congratulations, Diane! A whoosh like that is certainly
    motivating!

  9. It's great to see. I do wish I had been able to attend the
    meeting at the weigh-in, but DH was late getting home so
    that I missed the actual meeting.

    Next week, I guess.

  10. As I reread my post, you're right - wet jeans! The other
    factor that's making it easy to stay on program is that the
    baby requires so much of my attention that I don't often get
    to make lunch until later in the day than I normally would.

    The downside to all that is I have a challenge keeping easy,
    healthy snacks. Yesterday, we ended our walk at the grocery
    store and I picked up some fruit and celery. Hopefully, I'll
    have the time today to clean the strawberries for my
    afternoon snack.

  11. Thanks, Anny. It's great to see the weight coming off nearly
    as quickly as it came on.

  12. Thanks, Connie. I'm thrilled that the baby weight is coming
    off so quickly. It was tough during my pregnancy when I went
    over 200 lbs, because that was a 50 lb gain for me. I had
    planned to only gain the 35 that was recommended, but things
    didn't go as planned - obviously.

    Bottom line though is that the baby was healthy and is doing
    well. Now I just need to fit back into my "fat" work clothes
    in 4 weeks.

  13. Hey, it baby takes your mind away from food, so much the
    better. And fruit and veggies are great snacks or light
    lunches. You are still feeding two, so that does matter.

  14. Yes, I'm feeding two, but one of us is only 10 pounds! WW
    gives me an additional 10 points, which translates to about
    500 calories, which is right in line with what my healthcare
    provider has suggested for me.

    I'm not usually eating my FlexPoints, but today I was able
    to eat more and so will use some that I didn't use yesterday
    because that was a rough day.
