First of all, let me WOO HOO intrepid reader, Dawn, who has joined WW Online and will be struggling along with the rest of us. Way to fight the good fight, darlin!
As for me, I wasn't as good this weekend as I might have been. MoVo came over on Friday night and we got hammered, then I had pizza on Saturday because I was hung over. Then there was a T-Giving party last night.
I didn't do as poorly in these cases as I would have before WW, but I also didn't do great. Still:
Weight as of today: 201.0
Weight loss since last weigh-in: 2.6
Total pounds given away since start: 4.4
I'm feeling, if not exactly elated, a little pleased and smug today.
How are you doing this week, fellow weight-loss Peep?

Awesome! That's great.
I'm having an okay week - I have 5 weeks and 3 pounds more to go to hit my Christmas goal. I've been at this for seven weeks now ("this" being WW online), I've lost 13.5 pounds, and it only became challenging this week, in which I almost couldn't find my house because I ATE IT.
Still, last night I was faced with major temptation AND I hadn't slept much the night before, making me weak for greasy, comforting food. Still, I resisted and had one egg roll rather than a whole plate of Panda Express (one of many of my weaknesses), and even though I'm going to go into Thanksgiving lower on flex points than I had hoped (at this rate about 20) (assuming I don't cave in the next three days), I'm still going to have some which is a big win.
By the way I dropped under 175 last week which means 22 points instead of 24, but have decided not to switch to 22 until after the zarking holiday season. Which might slow things down a bit but I'd rather do that than go over - because once I go over a little, I tend to go over a LOT. I love playing mind games with myself, heh.
Lots of travel and holidayness coming up. My sister's WW meeting leader reminded them "it's a holiday, not a holiweek or holimonth", which I'm trying to keep in mind.
Overall I'm proud of myself (exactly 20 pounds to go before I'm not overweight by BMI standards...wowee), I'm proud of you Krissy, I'm proud of Dawn. We're tackling weight loss at the height of eating season and we're kicking ass. Yay!
High-fives to you both!
I'm.... wahtever. I'm craving all the yummy holiday stuffs, and giving in bit by bit (office potluck, ag*@!. My weigh-in today was a resounding MEH, with no additional loss. I am feeling some definition in my upper arms for the first time in my LIFE, though, so there's something.
"I have 5 weeks and 3 pounds more to go to hit my Christmas goal."
Daaaaaaaaaaaamn. I'm seriously impressed. And good on you, Kate, for eating only one eggroll. If I had the fortitude to eat only one egg roll I wouldn't be in the position I'm in now.
And ELEE, sometimes maintaining is all anyone can ask. Maintaining is still on-program! And upper arm definition is incredible.
I was going to say "do you know how many people I'd beat up to have upper-arm definition?", but then realized that the question is more quantitative than rhetorical. "How many people would I have to beat up to have upper-arm definition?
Anyhow, I'm jealous.
Way to go, Ladies!!
Thanks Krissy! Woohoo to you, too! 4.4 pounds is AWESOME. I'm on Day 3, with a monster headache and a sick kid, and the Wheat Thins and Cream Cheese are staring at me (a fave comfort food since jr. high!). But, I put up the Christmas tree two days early in order to give me a huge distraction, and I probably burned a few calories in the process. I also caved and ate a WW choc. cake thingy, but that was worth the whole one point!
After only 2 days of this, I know just how bad eating my son's leftovers are to my diet. Or, should I say, non-diet. Eating the last 3 spoonfuls of his pudding yesterday cost me 3 points. Stupid, stupid me. I could have had 3 apples for that. But I'm beginning to stop myself when he has one cracker left, or 3 fruitsnacks, etc. So, see, it's working!
