Well sorry I am just posting. Life is just crazy.
I had my final maintanence weigh in on Friday - and it is official. I am now a Lifetime Member. I even weighed in at my official goal weight - woot woot. Of course my leader was not there and the substitute did not know anything about Lifetime so now I have to go back this week so my leader can give me my charm and go over all the paperwork.
I started Weight Watchers in 1986 and have lost at least 350 pound since then. For some reason I always got within 10-15 pounds of goal weight and would give up.
I now have lost a total of 128 pounds since October 2007. I did weight watchers on my own the first 110 pounds and joined our local weight watchers 10 weeks ago.
Such an accomplishment and I hope this is the beginning of a wonderful journey for me. I have never felt better and I can honestly say I crave healthier foods now. When I do slip and have unhealthy carbs - I find myself craving breads, chips, and sweets. I just have to remember that I feel so much better and I am so much healthier than I was over a year and a half ago.

Thanks Tory. I am still trying to wrap myself around the idea of reaching maintance and still even to this day I still have to tell myself that this is not over - just a new way of life.
I do enjoy searching the internet finding new recipes and low point items. I feel like I have been like a sponge the last year and a half soaking up everything I have learned.
I still hate to exercise - but I still do it five to six times a week. I have tried running but my knees can not handle it at all - but I do a very fast pace walk. I am actually doing a Gate to Gate run with some friends that is 4.4 miles - but we are going as walkers. This is a run on our air force base from one gate to another. I am so excited. I have never been able to do anything like this before.
I am enjoying my life for the first time in many many years.
Janet

That's wonderful, Janet! Congratulations.
Would you mind sharing with the group what your plan for maintenance is? I
think we can all learn from each other and it's very motivating to learn
about not only how to LOSE the weight, but how to keep it off as well.

How exciting that you are walking a 4 miler! Good for you!
What's wrong with your knees? Running actually is not bad on the knees if
you use proper form and have good, supportive shoes that work with your
biomechanics. However if you have an underlying problem, it can impact that
(like arthritis).
You could look at race walking. My husband was just diagnosed with arthritis
so he can't run, but we're going to look into race walking. He's SO
disappointed to not be able to run. He's already registered for a few half
marathons, so he'll walk those.
One thing you will find about exercise is that whether you enjoy it or not
isn't dependent upon the exercise, but on the attitude. Honestly. I used to
hate it too. I mean H A T E (and if you've even seen a few of my posts, you
know that now I'm a personal trainer and run marathons). What changed wasn't
my fitness or my choice of sports, it was my attitude.
Are you going to continue to journal?

I ran 6.62 miles and did the new Wii Active game for half an hour. I give it
4.5 out of 5 stars.
Hey, I just ran a MARATHON two days ago and the doggone game could take that
into consideration before it criticizes my squat jumps!

Actually if you think about it, when you buy 80/20 you are paying for 3.2
ounces of pure, often added, fat.
So while yes, it is cheaper, you're paying for what should have gone in the
waste bin.
You're also paying more with your health if you eat it very often. That kind
of saturated fat is so detrimental to your health.
