I lost 2 pounds this week! So that puts me at 15 pounds thus far.
I will admit that I'm not following WW much anymore. It was becoming too time consuming to input everything, but I'm still using their weight tracker for now, until my membership expires. My "method" for now has been to eat something light for breakfast like a bowl of cereal or a piece of toast. I try to stay busy throughout the morning so I don't think about snacking and I usually walk during Cooper's morning nap, so that helps to pass the time until lunch. For lunch I've either been having a turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread with fat free Miracle Whip and a handful of pretzels, or a WW meal that is fairly low in points. Now the stretch from lunch to dinner is the hardest one for me. But I try to make myself wait until 3:30 or 4:00 pm and then I'll eat a snack which usually consists of the Chex party mix 100 calorie packages. I love that stuff! Supper is probably the hardest because I'm terrible about meal planning, so I just try to keep my portions small and do my best. Occasionally before I go to bed I'll have another 100 calorie snack, but that just depends on how late I ate supper. We eat pretty late at our house so a lot of evenings I do ok without snacking before bed.
I did not walk every day last week, but I've stuck with 5 days for now. I haven't done the Shred in awhile now, but I want to pick back up with it soon.

Keep up the good work! I'm proud of you!!! You can do it!
Sounds like you're doing good, Lydia. That's why I gave up WW. It was time consuming. The tracker on MyFitnessPal is time consuming enough. But if I don't use it I totally go off track and eat way more than I should. Have to log it in keeps me from nibbling.:OD Once I lose all my weight I'll probably stick with exercising faithfully and trying to eat sensibly and just maintain. I won't be tracking anything anymore!
