-- April 25th, 2008
I am a web marketing strategist who is a hockey fanatic. I play, coach, watch, collect and LOVE anything hockey. I can't wait to get back to it.

-- August 1st, 2008
I joined Weight Watchers at work and have found success.
Since April 25th, I have lost 22 lbs. My goal is to lose another 99 lbs.
I would like to reach this gal by Aug 20/09. Using this site and having such a supportive community here is what is helping me along too.
Hockey is getting closer and closer....

Struggling to get started!
Start by setting small goals for yourself. You CAN do it.
WW for me, isnt a diet....it is a new lifestyle. If you can, join WW and keep coming back to us for support.
Everyone here has a tip or two to share so maybe someone else's wisdom will jump start your journey.

You know, you really have already started, you reached out for support.

Good luck to you and know that you can find lots of support here.

WW Flex Points, Core or Bad Idea?
Don't let the points total scare you. With activity, you can gain points and there is always the 35 flex points per week to fall back on. Don't think about the total, think about the different foods...there are so many yummy 0 point snacks that you can fill the gap and not feel the growl.

Try celery and cucumber as a fast fulfilling 0 point snack or drink a glass of water with crystal light for flavoring to help with the hunger. Or have some soup!

Also, Smart Pop popcorn is a great snack and has less points that Low Fat Popcorn!

Just a few tips to get you jump-started.

Good Luck and keep at it, you can do it!
