Not sure if you drink alcohol or not but I noticed when I was drinking ALOT i gained ALOT of weight!! My high was 159 and I was miserable.. I totally stopped drinking (only an occasional one now) and begin drinking ALOT of water (like Janet said) with lemon!! I hate working out but I have a trainer and she trains me twice a week!! Also, I go on long walks with my dog after dinner once the weather starts to get nice... I know Jody and I love being outside and are very active.. MAybe you can encourage your hubby to start walking with after dinner so that will cut back on his munchies!! Its always better to go at it with someone!! Make sure to encourage each other and if you do good during the week, treat yourself to a snack on the weekends (ice cream, cake, etc).. Good luck and keep us posted!!

When I was pretty close to reaching my goal weight at Weight Watchers, I also was determined to get there FAST...and I did.
Some of the things that helped me were lots of water, a lot of veggies, fat free everything I could find, no nonsense snacks - like fruit, veggies, or a slice of weight watchers bread with fat reduced peanut butter, lean cuisine or weight watcher's tv dinners for supper and Italian ices(made from water) for desert, fat free Kool whip and fat free or sugar free jello (I think they have no calories), lots of coffee, and walking. I wasn't even hungry I was so determined. You can do this - it's only a bit over 3 pounds/week. If you should reach a plateau and not lose a lot one week or so, keep on going. It's normal. Good luck

....and - this really helped me. I never left the house without a bottle of water and a baggie of my own snacks in case I got hungry.
