maliksmommy wrote: Well I have officially started my diet today! I am going to try and go by the points for WW that booey2 so graciously shared with us I tried on some swimsuits this past weekend and let me tell you it was not pretty I start that swim class with Malik in a month a would like to lose a couple of pounds before then. I think my biggest thing that is going to help me is that I am drinking water right now instead of a 32oz pepsi! I even actually brought and apple to snack on today~something's got to be wrong with me My goal is to lose about 10-15 lbs so wish me luck, I am sure I will be letting you guys know when I need your support I have such a hard time sticking to diets and exercising!

Good luck and I'll try to be a cheerleader for you!

ediep replied: Good Luck Ladies....I'm right there with ya! Thank Goodness the weather is warm and sunny and I can take Jason out for a walk today!

supermom replied: I'll definately be with you in spirit, and will be right there with you in a few months after this baby gets here - I'm sure it won't take you that long, thought, and I'll cheer you and then you can return the favor later - woowoo!! Good luck, and hooray! for you!!

MommyToAshley replied: I am going to jump on the bandwagon with you too... it wil be hard though, no more potato burritos. LOL! Maybe we can help each other out!

maliksmommy replied:

Man I didn't think about that! One of those is probably 30 points by itself! Oh how I am going to miss them

Maybe we could do weekly updates to see how we are all doing. If I have to actually tell someone I might stick to it

MommyToAshley replied: Good idea... you are just full of good ideas today!

What day do we want to weigh in? Should we start off the week with it on Mondayor end the week with it on Friday?

maliksmommy replied: I like that idea we could weigh in today and then give updates every Friday-does that sound good? I won't be able to weigh until tonight but I will post A.M tomorrow. I haven't weighed myself forever, I am scared to see what it says!

MommyToAshley replied: ok, I'm game! I will weigh in after my walk with Ashley. hehe.

Mom2_my3boys replied: Wishing you all the best of luck! I'll be there in about 5mos. Ughhh not looking fowars to it!

Kaitlin'smom replied: I with you! I weight myself this moring. Still the same as I have been. So I want to first loose the last 10lbs for the baby then we will go for more!

I think if we have each other for support we just might all be loosers! Heeheh so are we gonna start a separate topic each week or continue in one?


Good luck to all

kit_kats_mom replied: Good luck ladies!

One thing I have found that helps me stick to my diet, is that I give myself a "free day" once a week. That way I don't feel deprived. So, if you want the potato burritos, have them occasionally!

My free day is usually when we go out for dinner. I always order dessert and I don't really worry about what the points are.
