I have managed to lose another 5 lbs and have now lost 35lbs in total. I am very happy with this and feel quite proud of myself. I have however, enjoyed my weekends continually since I asked this question. I think that I was actually looking for direction from someone who I respect in the WW department who wasn't my leader that I see every week at our meetings. I already knew what her answer would be! I guess I was hopeful that Roni you would have some magical way for me to eat what I want on the weekends, not journal or exercise and still lose weight quickly! I know - stupid. Roni - I agree. I should start tracking on the weekends even if I do go a little overboad with my points. I think that I have only lost an additional five lbs since writing that quetion because of my splurging on the weekends. We moved and stuff like that as well but I should have lost a lot more weight by now. I am sure it is hard on my body to raise my insulin, over fill my belly etc over the weekend and then do the complete opposite during the week. It can't be good. I like the suggestion made by Tara from Portland...perhaps it will be a one meal splurge and not a two day splurge... Thanks everyone and thanks Roni for answering my question. I know I comment a lot! Hope you have a wonderful vacation! Tanya P.S. LOVE the new site! Loved the video and thanks for answering my question about weekends off.

I have lost 30-35 pounds so far and the reason I have the 5 lb variance is because I took weekends off. It was really hard for me to get over the concept of not being able to take the weekends off since I did it for so long (4 months). I didnt even go that crazy but the weekends would gain me 5 lbs and I would lose it during the week. This weekend is the first weekend where I took the "weekend off" concept and made it only one meal off. I chose a meal to splurge on and the rest of the weekend I mentally tracked what I ate, but it was all good light food. Hopefully this works for me. Like Roni said, give us an update! I would love to hear what you did. I wanted to comment on the weekends off question. I have lost 30-35 pounds so far and the reason I have the 5 lb variance is because I took weekends off.
