Hi Connie, good for you! I use sugar in my tea ...everyday I add 4 pts for 3 cups of tea per day for the sugar, its 1 pt for 1 tbsp and 3 pts for a cup of l% milk. Watch the diet soda because even though its no sugar or points, the sweetness does make you crave more sweetness. I drink Crystal light iced tea but alternate it with plain water. Best of luck, we CAN do this! Oh and give Leslie Sansone
Walk at home a try. heres some you tube links, you can do along with that to see if you like it.

i found a coupon for "truvia" , i love home brewed sweet tea,drink it all year.
as soon as this last 2 quarts are gone, i will make it with the truvia.

Should i start a new thread for WW and quilters? i don't think i can change the title of this one..

i feel so good! i just got back from the pool,spent 45 minutes,just walking back and forth, then hit the hot tub to loosen up the muscles, the fibro gets wicked if i don't!
i think my weigh ins are Sundays.

I joined WW in Feb and have lost 11 pounds. I get the monthly membership which comes to $9.95 a week. I go to the meetings every week. Really had a hard time this week..don't know what happened to me.. so looking forward to meeting so I can get back on track. Nice to go to meetings and hear from others. Then you are reminded you are not alone and others have same problems. Like this new program as all fruits and vegetables are free...well..a few have points but majority is free. Once you get the hang of it, so much better program than before.

I joined on the 8 of March. I have lost 10.4. I am going to meeting and keeping up with on line. I'm almost 58 and have never been thin and just once I would like to be able to buy any clothes I want. DH joined also and he is also successful.

Thanks for posting this! Just went there and it seems easier for me to use than others I have tried. Free is always good too.....

I joined Weight Watchers at Work, although it's not really at work, it's run through our home owners association. We rec'd 12 weeks of on-line WW with our membership. We have a great leader, a fun group. I'm doing well so far, but must admit weighing and measuring can get tiresome. It's mainly taught me portion control and to think before I grab anything from the fridge even if I'm not hungry. Good luck with the program.
