Weight Progress
I have been tracking my weight since I started Weight Watchers on June 30, 2005, as you can see below. Actually, I use Excel to calculate my progress stats and chart. I don’t know why I didn’t think of this earlier but I just realized I could share the template with you in case you were looking for a way to track. You will need Excel to open the file. Give it a try!
Oh and since everyone asks.. I’m just about 5’9”

At this point I stopped going to Weight Watchers. It wasn’t really a conscious decision. Life got in the way. I would hop on my home scale now and then and was reinforced many times I had my weight in control. Click here for a bit on my scale history.
2009-2010 Progress
During this time I shifted my focus to fitness instead of weight. I ran a half marathon AND a marathon. My weight stayed in check during the death of my father, a very stressful move and a miscarriage. THEN I got pregnant.
2011 Progress
I had the baby March 17, 2011 and so I begin a new weight journey.

What's Cooking in my kitchen?
-
I've seen it mentioned in a few of my clean eating and healthy cook books but honestly, I never even thought of Farro as an option for me. I refuse to shop at specialty stores and I try to use only common products that I can keep in stock and purchase from a typical grocery [...] -
I've never had a tuna melt. Is that weird? I guess that's what happens when you grow up not liking mayonnaise. I never ate tuna salad or egg salad or chicken salad. Honestly, they always kind of grossed me out. Then I realized.. hey.. why does tuna salad have [...] -
I have no idea where this idea came from. I was hungry. It was lunch. I had Brussels Sprouts. That was all the catalyst I needed.:) I decided to use a slice of real bacon to add flavor and little fat that would help sauté the sprouts. I'm trying [...] -
WOW was this good. I mean seriously good. It's not vegetarian so don't start throwing stones. I'm calling it a Garden Vegetable Burger because I use the new Laughing Cow Smooth Sensations Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Spread. It was this recipe on Allrecipes.com that inspired [...] -
I drink water 99.9% of the time but every so often it just doesn't cut it. I want something else. Something more. Something slightly sweet. Today was one of those days. I decided to make a refreshing drink based on the famous Arnold Palmer, half lemonade and half iced [...] -
The other day I made a whole chicken on the grill in pieces. It was delicious! Just a little BBQ sauce and an open flame is all I need to make The Husband happy in the dinner department. I also picked up a few ears of corn from the grocery store. They aren't in season [...] -
Let me explain so you don't think I'm making a chili recipe and just put it on pizza. I'm calling this vegetarian Chili Pizza because chili is what inspired flavors. I think I told you. Little Bean is really into, well, BEANS! We go through a can about every 2 days. Yesterday [...] -
I've confessed my inability to follow recipes here on GreenLiteBites many, many times. I don't know why it's so hard for me. I can barely follow some of my own and I wrote the darn things! I think most of my problem stems from not having all the ingredients listed and, [...] -
Leftover brown rice and leftover sauce meet in this quick lunch idea inspired by my favorite food of all time: Pizza. I swear I can turn anything into a pizza concoction. Have you seen all my pizza ideas? I've used everything from pumpkin to zucchini, polenta to wontons. Nothing is off [...] -
This isn't a recipe just an idea I had to share. I can't believe how good it was! I've never had grilled pineapple. Can you believe it? I just never really had the desire to grill it before. When you love something raw sometimes it doesn't occur to you to cook it. [...] -
I whipped this up for lunch on a whim today because, well, I have a baby who's obsessed with three things… Cheese, Beans, and Avocado. No, really. Look... It's my go to meal for him so I find myself with beans and avocado readily available. [...] -
You know that tradition 7 Layer Mexican Dip? The one with the cream cheese, guacamole, salsa, lettuce, cheese, green onion and olives? Yea. That's the one. Well I had a craving for it the other day. Well, not exactly for it as I can never make anything the way it's suppose [...] -
If you go through the archives of GreenLiteBites I have about 5 total beef recipes. Five. Compare that to the 80+ I have tagged with chicken/turkey there's a clear winner in the meat department on my blog and in my home. I don't have a beef with beef (omg The Husband [...] -
I'm a kitchen sink smoothie maker. Whatever I have on hand goes in the blender and viola! A quick breakfast or a healthy snack. Last year I posted an "Elastic Approach" to how I make smoothies but I still like to share specific combinations that worked really well. This was one [...] -
The other night it was just the kids and I home for dinner and I decided to make what I wanted to make no holds barred. Without The Husband home it's much easier for some reason. Hmmm wonder why? Ok, not here to husband bash.. really.. I'm not! I'm here [...] -
*sigh* I was really hoping to share an awesome turkey burger idea. I had grand plans for my leftover ground turkey. The results was alright but they could have been so much better. I added diced pineapple, red pepper, green pepper, oats and soy sauce to the meat and formed 2 patties. In hindsight I [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday having no idea if it would work. To my surprise it did AND the husband actually said he liked it... UNSOLICITED! Here's the story. I had only 4 tilapia fillets defrosted for dinner. I knew it wasn't going to be enough for us [...] -
This is a slight reboot of a recipe I posted last year simply called Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili. Staying true to my use-what-I-have-on-hand roots I, well, used what I had on hand and made a similar dish with a spicy twist. Topping the result with avocado added a cool creaminess that [...] -
Did you hear? The Laughing Cow recently launched Smooth Sensations a line of 5 cream cheese spreads. There's Classic Cream, Classic Cream Light, Strawberries & Cream, Garden Vegetable and my favorite… Cinnamon. It's a sweet wedge of creamy goodness! Today I decided to use my new favorite flavor [...] -
Confession time, I recorded a 30 minute video making this with both kids (partally) 2 nights ago. I miss videos. I really do but they seem so much more difficult with 2 children. I'm also having technical difficulties with my video recording and audio syncing making it VERY time consuming to edit. [...] -
A couple of years ago I shared a modified version of Sloppy Joe's I made for a party. Everyone loved it but I've been wanting to try to make something similar for the family on a smaller scale and without the pre-made canned Manwich sauce. I don't particularly have any issues [...] -
Yesterday I was dreaming about a salad. Not just any salad, but a chickpea filled, cucumber, and red onion salad with a fun, tangy dressing. Unfortunately, I had no cucumber or red onion. Well, that's a lie. I had a half of cucumber but it was a mushy mess and [...] -
Dinner meals are getting harder and harder for me to share lately. I've gone back to just whipping things up without really measuring anything (this meal was going to be one of those until I realized I still had enough light to take some photos.) I've also instituted a few brainless meal nights [...] -
Three years ago I posted a video called "Makin' Hard Boiled Eggs" where I shared my system for, well... making hard boiled eggs. Genius name, I know. I'm smart like that. Anyway, since then I've gotten tons of feedback and comments thanking me but all the information is locked in a long winded 10 minute [...] -
Yup. You read that correctly. BEET as in those red vegetables that stain your fingers pink. Honestly, I have no idea what possessed me to make this. I don't particularly like beets. I mean I like them, but I don't looove them. Two summers ago I made them for [...]

Roni,
Since you are a lifetime member, why do you weigh in every week? Is it to keep you on track?
Wow, it is great that you can keep on track week after week. Thanks again for sharing daily with us.

Roni,
When you started losing weight, what weight were you when people started to notice?

Good Morning
I noticed that “Tonia” mentioned sharing the excel template to track weight loss. Would it be possible for you to send the template to me also? I went to my meeting Saturday, and lost another 2 pounds which brings me to a grand total of -8.6 pounds in 3 weeks.
I shared your website with the other WW members at the meeting. I just cant tell you how much I love reading your daily messages.
Thanks for the support!!!!

Do you find it is easier and faster to be on the core program or flex.
10.
on 05 Mar 2007 at 9:24 pm10 Roni
@Kathy – I found the most success with a mixture of both. I like the portion control help Flex gives and the healthy food options CORE has. So I try to eat mostly CORE foods while counting points. That worked the best for me!

Roni,
I just had my first gain (OP 15 weeks) and I came right to your page to see if you have been through them too, and it made me feel a LOT better to see that it happens to all of us.
Just a note to let you know you helped me today.
Elizabeth :)

Wow, I just realized I am only 12 pounds away from your weight! I am so excited. I think you look healthy and strong and that is how I want to look! I am having a hard time looking at myself in the mirror and realizing I am not over 200 pounds anymore. When will my mind catch up with my body?
Check out LeeAnns last blog post..Lost respect
Thanks LeeAnn!
As for … When will my mind catch up with my body?
Give it time, I STILL struggle with this 3 years later!
Have gotten a little discouraged the past couple of days and looking at how a realistic weight loss works (general downward slope but with a few bumps) it makes me feel better. Thanks again, Roni!
Check out Jens last blog post..Awesome Beef Stew
Go back and change your final entry to -5.4, not +5.4 You lost those pounds, girlie!!! Way to go! You continue to be such an inspiration to me. I really like that you include BMI in your table.
I’m not even sure how I stumbled across your page, but OMG I am so glad I did. I just had my 2nd child in October 2008 and started WW last week. At my first weigh in (yesterday) I was down 5 pounds. I am starting almost exactly where you did so I thank you so much for your page. It gives me the motivation and inspiration that I need! I also have my mom to thank to. She has lost 45 pounds on WW and looks great. I know this won’t be easy but I am committing myself 100% to this!
Thanks for the template
Oh. My. Goodness. Being a data nut, this is *aweseome*! Thanks for sharing!
Hello Roni, It has been a year since I have been on your site (and on WW)…I just rejoined and downloaded your tracker!!! I love this! Great idea and thanks so much for sharing. You were such an inspiration then and I am so happy to see you are still blogging!!
am 14 and i am wondering how can i loss weight fast for my graguation
Wow, you really have the consistency and discipline in your weight loss plan! You could be a good role model to those wish to slim down for their body, but nowadays most of them are looking for rapid weight loss plan, instead of looking for long-term healthy weight loss plan. You are doing the good job!
You’ve been plateaued for years and need to make some changes! Start reading up on paleo/primal, reinvestigate intermittent fasting, research high intensity interval training, blood type theory, leptin etc. You aren’t making progress, you’re going backwards. As long as you *think* you have an ED, you do. Mark’s Daily Apple has a lot of good info, you might want to head over there.
Not sure what you are talking about. I’ve maintained for years. How THIN do you think I should (or anyone) should be?!?
Roni, you are a HUGE inspiration for me, not only on weight loss, but on keeping it real and enjoying life while being healthy! It’s really discouraging to see trends out there that tell me I can only lose weight/maintain by cutting out this or that or doing some extreme form of exercise…I love coming to your site and re-acknowledging the simple truth – put in less than you put out and move everyday. Keep doing you!
