I Just Can't Lose
I just can't seem to get to that 5 lb loss! It's so aggravating! Normally when you start a weight loss program you lose that fairly fast. Not this girl, grrrr.......
I'm just stuck on the point this or point that loss and gains.
I've decided to give the all in mode a try for at least a week. If you have the new app and can't change the mode; log out of the app and back in and then try. That's what worked for me.
All In Mode screen will look a little different wanting you to aim for Protein, Fiber and Water Goals. Slide that screen to the left to get your points. Basically you only have your daily points. No weeklies; I'm unsure about activity at this point. So you really have to rely on the zero point list.

A Picture
Every so often I take a picture that I consider a good picture or it just turns out interesting. This is one of them.

The New App
Yesterday I received an email from Weight Watchers inviting me to try the new app; just click the link.
I clicked it and now have the new app. Word is that everyone should have it by February 1, 2026; but don't depend on that as that's the word.
Anyway, once you find your way around the app it really is nothing more than another app. Don't rely on updates....this is an upgrade. I'm so sick of people posting they got the update and the app is exactly the same (that was indeed an update, the new app is an upgrade and will look entirely new). I'm also sick of people whining that they don't have it yet - it's coming! More than anything stop complaining about all the problems with the new app - it'll work out and you'll learn to use it.
Weight Watchers is always bad about these things; they rush and then it isn't entirely ready. That's just Weight Watchers.
As far as the new app? I like it!

Update
I'm just .3 away from a 5 lb loss; POINT 3......I so want to be there tomorrow!
It's been an ugly week; we got about 8 inches of snow topped with ice. Work was closed yesterday, but I was back today!
My birthday is Friday and CC is taking me to dinner and a movie. I've chosen Mexican for dinner and though I have a movie picked out; the theater doesn't have the times up yet; which seems really strange for them.
And that's about all I have for this post.
Oh - I still don't have the WW app update.

Weight Loss and Weather
So I'm back using this blog. I just like the title better and I think it is more me. I've moved everthing over to here, sorry if you see reposts though, it just happens and I'm doing my best to clean it up.
I didn't make my 5 lb loss yet, which is rather upsetting. Shapa still kept me in the Blue, but this morning put me down to Teal. However, my scale has me down in weight from yesterday. I'm so confused!
And that's what comes from too many scales and opinions - LOL!!
I didn't exercise yesterday nor did I eat correctly and yet I had a little loss. That's one good thing!
Today it is snowing and it's suppose to continue all day and then turn to ice before stopping. I hate winter.

Instead of starting another post for today...I'm just going to keep adding to this one if I feel the need.
I just did my walking video. I highly suggest you get to YouTube and look up Walk Away The Pounds. There's many different videos depending on your need. This one is my favorite:
I've done a beginners one too but it shows the timer in the upper corner and I find myself watching that and even though the beginners one is shorter; it feels so much longer with that timer.
Anyway breakfast this morning was 2 slices of 647 Multi-grain bread toasted with 1-1/2 tbsp of peanut butter, banana and coffee. Just needed something a little different. I'll have yogurt or protein drink for a snack later.
