    Weight Watchers - 4th week of April, 2011

    Stacy, sounds like work is busy - just do your best. Shereta - great job getting the workout done already. I'm sure it's a great way to start the day. Yesterday was my official weigh-in day and I lost 1.2 pounds! I have a long way to go but that's a start. My eating has been good. I had a...

    Weight Watchers - 4th week of April, 2011

    I only have time for a quick update. Congrats on your two pound loss, Shereta. Great job! Gianna I know what you mean about it being hard to part with your hard earned money. I recently had a lot of luck finding a couple of work outfits at tj maxx I had a horrible case of the munchies today...

    Weight Watchers - 3rd week of April, 2011

    Shereta - Great job on doing the workout!!! Don't you feel so much better now!? I don't work out in the mornings, but I find that if I'm not busy working out within the first 20 mins after returning home from work, I probably won't. I really hate working out late in the evenings (like 8 or 9)...

    Weight Watchers - 3rd week of April, 2011

    Shereta - Great job on seeing the waist. Its so nice to see visible signs of progress. Gianna - I'm sorry your weight loss is so slow. I definitely feel your pain. I think you have a great attitude about keeping on trying. Had a good day today. I did IMAX 2 (with just the step platform). It...

    Question about the Sale!!

    I was wondering the same. I think there has been an appreciation month with coupons for the past couple years (once a year) but I don't remember the discounts being this good. I also don't remember being able to combine the coupons with the quantity discount. I have been a customer since 2007. I...

    Do you prefer downloads or physical DVDs?

    Interesting to hear everyone's preferences. Perhaps I should get a cable to hook my iPhone to the tv. Good idea to look for a used one cheaper I would probably only have enough free memory on my iPhone for one workout at a time so I would have to re sync every time I workout but that doesn't...

    Weight Watchers - 3rd week of April, 2011

    Stebby, Stacy, and Suzanne - Thanks so much for the welcome! Stebby - Great advice about drinking more water. Actually, about the only permanent, positive change I have actually made since the beginning of this year was to kick my Diet Pepsi habit. Since I was a teenager, I would drink 2-5...

    Do you prefer downloads or physical DVDs?

    I'm a trying to decide if I want to order any DVDs using the Cathlete Appreciation coupons that expire very soon, and I'm having a hard time making a decision. I have about 5 of Cathe's workouts as a download, and several phsyical DVDs. I can't decide whether I prefer the downloads or the...

    Weight Watchers - 3rd week of April, 2011

    Can I Join You? Hi everyone, I've actually been reading this check-in thread regularly since it began, but never joined in. That was mostly because I've been doing poorly with my eating and haven't been losing weight, but I have recommitted and am ready to give it another go! I'm never...

    I hate dressing rooms!!

    Why is it that I look 10 times worse in a dressing room mirror than in all other mirrors!? It is so frustrating. I have quite a bit of weight to lose, and I find clothes shopping to me a miserable experience. It doesn't help that I usually have to try on at least 10-20 pairs of pants before...

    Feet going numb on elliptical

    This happens to me regularly on the elliptical. I had no idea it happened to anyone else. I'll definitely try loosening my shoelaces next time.

    Any medical professionals out there who can explain

    I second Elaine's question. How can you get prescriptions online? I've never heard of that either. As far as waiting at the doctor's office, I know it can definitely be frustrating. Luckily, I only have to go to the doctor once a year, and I've never had a horribly long wait. I did have to wait...

    Is frozen fruit washed well enough for smoothies?

    I often make smoothies with frozen fruit and I don't wash it. I actually never thought about it.

    Washing hair twice a day, is it OK?

    I actually wash (with shampoo) and use conditioner in my hair twice a day and blow dry it. I shower in first thing in the mornings and after i get sweaty in my evening workout. I just don't like taking a shower without washing my hair. I guess I don't feel clean. My hair has always been healthy...

    Food Tracker/Calorie Tracker recommendations

    I have used CalorieKing's desktop software for years, and I love it. It's simple and straightforward. You can enter your own foods and you can also save meals and log exercise. My favorite thing is that it is a huge database of foods already in it, including most national brands foods and almost...

    Which DVD would you save????

    That's a tough question. I would save either Low Impact Circuit or the Shock Cardio HiiT. I would not be sad to let my TaeBo DVD or my TurboJam go.

    Whatcha doing today?

    I started my day going to a 45 minute spinning class at 6:30 this morning. After work this evening I plan to do Circuit Blast from STS Cardio for the first time. I'm super excited about trying it out. I bought it when it was on special a couple weeks ago, but still have not done it, because I...

    Need a blender recommendation

    I recently got this one: http://www.amazon.com/KitchenAid-56-2doz-2e-Polycarbonate-5-2dSpeed-Blender/dp/B000CSNVE2/ref=pd_ys_iyr3 For $88. It does crush ice nicely and I love the design. The blender part is all once piece (except the lid) and it's easy to wash in the dishwasher. When...

    Anyone heard of Miracle Noodles?

    I haven't tried the Mircale noodles, but a few years ago I did try the Tofu Shirataki noodles. I just couldn't get past the smell or the texture, but I only tried them a couple times.
