Kristie, welcome back to WW and BCB.

I've never shopped at Target's. I think I'll check them out.

Even Simon laughed!

Laura,

My first time with WW many years ago, I chose a weight at the bottom of my range thinking of my weight in my 20s. Reality was I couldn't maintain it. Everyone has given good advice. Why not wait until you are near the top range of your goal and then evaluate how you feel and look?

Patsy,

Welcome to WW and BCB! You lost 19lbs during the toughest holiday seasons. Pat yourself on the back, you did great!

Nice job Blythe!

Great accomplishment.

Judy,

Love you attitude!

Michelle,

Welcome to WW and BCB. This site can seem overwhelming at first. Read through some of the forums. They are grouped by interest level. Age, hobbies, amount to lose. Then find a home base and just introduce yourself. You will find the people here warm and helpful.

Kimberley's right. Work your sweets into the Plan. If you deny yourself you tend to overdue and feel like this is a diet and you are depriving yourself. Plan your snacks and make it a life choice.

Lynn, Welcome to BCB.

You tend to loose a bit more the first few weeks but then it goes on a more average rate of loss.

Don't say just -.4. If you did that for 50 weeks you would easily loose 21 lbs. Some weeks are more and some are less. But if you're doing the program you will get results.

Lisa, Welcome to WW and BCB.

That's cute Hoppy.

That was certainly a sign from somewhere.

Welcome Christine,

Go to the Favorite recipe section and look under Appetizers. You'll find some great suggestions.

Welcome back to WW ande BCB.

Welcome to the both of you. There are various forums in this site dedicated to different interest levels. Read through some of the threads and find a home base that holds an interest with you. Most have some sort of daily threads where you can meet the people in that section.

Food for thought...Perhaps even a whole meal!

Happy Birthday, Laurie..Is this the year you turn 18!

I'm so happy I'm a red head.

Mary, Nothing to be embarassed about. You made great progress and you're smiling!

Lillie,

Boredom is my big downfall also. I just pulled out 8 old WW cookbooks and I'm trying 2-3 new recipes a week. I've posted 2 on Delta force 1 is a 4 star and 1 a dud. You win some, you lose some.

Have you tried WW eggplant Parmesian? Or Bulger, Couscous?

I use e-tools and the 3 month. Between the two I catch everything.

Welcome to BCB, Congrats!

There are still challenges to go after reaching Lifetime and there is plenty of support here.

Great slideshow, Blackbeard.....great inspiration for Sam.
