This is so exciting - I've never done a premiere before! I'm so happy to be back making videos and chatting with you all. I hope this video will motivate or re-motivate you to continue with your weight loss journey! Keep Going - Don't give up!
Found your channel today. I started my weight loss journey in May of 2015. So far I have lost 79 pounds. I want to lose another 14 pounds. My motivation was that I need a hip replacement and need to lower my BMI. I was doing fine until July. I love the summer and all that it entails. I told myself I would return to my meal plan after Labor Day. I have gained about 4 pounds since July. I need motivation to get back to my meal plan. I lost the weight by watching my calories. My Fitness Pal (the free version) has been extremely helpful to me. My goal is to lose 1-2 pounds per week. I am definitely going to try the lemon chicken recipe. This is the kick in the butt that I needed.
💯 with so much that you said. I am finally a final 😊 loser. I have gone well past my goal this time and don’t want to lose any more weight. Been here about 6 months or more now and I feel like I am on autopilot. I can’t believe it...I am 56 and have struggled since I was 14. This is the weirdest feeling for me. Loved your message. I am rooting for you too!!
WAY TO GO VIOLET EYES!!!! I'm so proud of you and I don't even know your name - smile! I LOVE to hear success stories like this. It give us all hope! Thank you so much for commenting! Oh my goodness - the words "I don't want to loose any more weight" have never been spoken from my mouth! ...but some day I will speak those words!!!!! Thanks for rooting for me!
Your mantra really hit me hard for some reason. Probably because I've spent my whole life doing it again and again. I should probably do it right this time. I did attend my very first WW meeting this morning, though! I am very excited and feeling positive! Thank you for all of the very helpful advice. 🙂
Thanks for the tips on being motivated. I need that. Especially the talking to myself. I've neglected myself for too long! What I keep thinking about are these people that are extremely obese. The ones that weigh into the 1000 lbs. I don't see how they survive. I don't want to be one of them. But like you say if you don't stop doing all of these bad habits we might have ,we will continue to gain weight.
I have lost 50 pounds since April 2019 and I have long way to go. For the past couple of months I have stalled. I am on Slimming World but in September SW US shut down. I have been floundering and have to get my mind on what I have accomplished and I know the program by heart but I have missed the support from the online group. I found your channel and I love it! Thanks so much for sharing!
Ok, you are speaking directly to me! I too started in Jan ‘18, lost 50lb’s. By December of 18. & have done nothing this year. I was so proud of myself that I was keeping within 5 of the 50. But all of the sudden..... I’ve gained 10!!!!!!. This week is the first week I’ve felt like I’m back on track. Love all of your words! I just found you, & will go check out more of your videos! In a couple of words.....thank you!
Wow! What motivation! I need to put all these things in practice. The visual reality check is scary 😟 but I'll try it. Thanks for all the help you give. I really enjoy your videos . 😊
Was happy to find your channel, I to am in my 50s . I just finished my first 6weeks on WW. Lost 10lb first 4 weeks now been at a stand still last 2 weeks . Feeling a little discouraged, but I’m not giving up . Thanks for the great motivational videos!! 🙏🏼
Glad you aren't giving up! You will absolutely have times of no weight loss - it happens to most. It can be so discouraging, but it's so worth it to keep going. You may want to take measurements - sometimes you don't see the scale going down, but you do lose inches, which is just as exciting! Cheering for you Lyn!
You are great I am just starting again. Need to lose 30 pounds. You are a big help. My husband is so hard on me that I gave up. But now I am doing this for myself!
Hi Bobbie. I accidentally found you while doing a search. What caught my eye was “over 50” in your title. Gosh, I can relate to everything you say. I just subscribed and look forward to watching your other videos. I see that you live near my old stomping grounds, Bucks Co. Thanks for all that you do.
I found your video so encouraging. I lost lbs last year and only went down one size. My wardrobe did not change and I got so discouraged that I gained it all back. I know I have to get started again but I was under the impression losing that much would make a big difference. I will take pictures this time and a walking video and hopefully that will help. Thanks for this video.
Thank you for this video!! I really need to re motivate myself. I have gained some of my weight back and my skinnier clothes are getting tight!! Yikes!! Thank you also for mentioning the prayer aspect as well. I have been doing the same thing with my ww program. I also love the video to take of you walking (front and back) and also the full body shots!! Love your videos. I'm in my mid 50's and having a struggle.
I feel so good after watching this video. Thank you so much for your efforts to do this. Hope you get more and more strength each day and motivate us like this. 🙏🏽
Great advice Bobbie, I especially like the tip about having someone film you from front and behind. You are an inspiration. I managed to loose a bit of weight on my cruise, which is a first for me. I'm struggling to get back on WW after getting home from vacation. I will rewatch your first video for motivation. Thank you for being so positive and sharing your journey with us. xo Cathy
Hi Bobbie! You inspire me. Just starting my weight loss journey with WW. Staying successful for a month now. Need to do this for my health and my family! Thanks for all the great ideas!
So needed to hear this, thank you. Ready for the second half ( lost 40lbs so far ). Just getting through the holidays. Almost (3lbs) to where I was before Thanksgiving.
Thank you Bobbie for valuable information. I came across your video looking for Help to get unstuck restart my weight loss journey. I have senior parents who don't have the best health and we've had some scares in the last couple of months, that was a chunk of my Why to how I got off track stress and anxiety flooded me I'm going to make a stronger effect (as I have made many efforts before) to fast and pray to make a fresh start. Definitely don't want to " start again" w losing all progress. Thanks again!
Bobbie, measure myself helped me to be motivated, I realize that I have more way to go. I ask help to God too, it is important to have that connection, I am doing online and it is the first time that I am loosing weight without a doctor or a counselor checking at me every week, at least; and I think I am doing pretty well and happy loosing weight eating what I want with boundaries, of course. I like your videos, inspirational and helpful.
Thank you! Thank you! I’m on WW, and my weight loss has been so turtle slow 🐢 that I have begun to lose motivation. I’ve only lost just over 14 pounds since July 3rd. Ugh! I can do this!!!!!
There is no ONLY in weight loss!!!! 14 pounds is awesome - it may not be as fast as you like, but that's why it's called a journey, not a destination. Keep going Amy!!!!
This was an excellent video...thank you!! I needed to hear everything you said. I really need to meal prep, as well as overcome my snacking urges in the evening. I will be re-watching this video often to help keep me on track.😊
I just started watching your videos and I am so happy I found you! Great tips and inspiration! I will continue to watch your videos and try the lemon chicken!!!
What a great video! I saw myself in a store window and I couldn't believe how big my middle looked😏 I have got to get moving to lose that extra 20 pounds. No wonder I'm so tired all the time. Got to pray and get moving 🙏 Missed you so much Bobbie, glad you are back♡
Thanks Bobbie! Very motivational. I'm a slow loser, and I know it's because I don't count points on weekends (if you don't track, it doesn't happen, right?! Ha). Not to mention the fatigue, mood swings and cravings that seem to go with menopause. I'm also not very good about praying about my weight loss. I don't know why I hesitate, but after hearing you mention it, I'm going to make a conscious effort! Thanks again!
Tracking can absolutely get tedious, but I know I stay on track when I do!!! Keep praying - He is waiting to hear your every struggle and wouldn't it be so much easier to have the creator of the universe come alongside you for each of these struggles? I'll be praying for you as well Carla!
Thanks, Bobbie! Since last October 6th, I have lost 51 lbs! And I have lost my motivation. I want my Kettle-cooked Salt n Vinegar chips! 😲😵😩 So, thank you for pointing out all of these great tips. I have a wedding to go to in December and I'm determined to wear a particular dress that I've only worn once, 15 years ago, to my oldest daughter's wedding. I am GOING to wear this dress! (Not to mention all the health benefits, extended longevity and such!) Phillipans 4:13! 📖🙏👗 Thanks again! 😘
Oh boy - we all have our snacks that are hard to give up. I believe you ARE going to wear that dress. When you do, send me a pic on Instagram!!! I will cheer for you!
Oh Bobbie!! I forgot you are an hour ahead of me so I was late! Your video is very motivational and you hit the nail right on the head! Thank you for doing this video! I am going to re-watch this later tonight.
Thanks for the video! 💗 Definately hard @ times to stay motivated. My weight has not moved for a mth, so I have been loosing that motivation. Evenings are the hardest for me. Just introduced a new food/ recipie (been stuck on my tried and true..but getting bored as u mentioned) oh! Didn't think of pinterest with food??!! Thanks for the tip! Was also so focused on getting to Onederland (16 lbs away)... that I did not realize that 50lb goal loss is 7.5 lbs away!! But taking it 1lb @ a time. Just realized that if I can lose 40 plus lbs... then 7.5 lbs is definately achievable!! (NEW Motivation!!🎉) It'll just take time 😊. NEVER going back! 💪💗
7.5 - Yeeeeesssss! That's your smaller goal - Onederland is your next! Be sure to set one after that - maybe the next size down in pants or shirt!!! Evenings can be hard - be sure to brush your teeth when you know you need to not eat anything else!!!! I'm amazed at how much this can help. Cheering for you Zoe!
Hi Bobbie i think your video's are great and your honesty is on point. I have been a long time ww ww member lifetime. But i fell off the wagon about 8months ago and want ti get back on track i gained about 7seven lbs.i want to try a new meeting to change it up..Do u go to meetings? I hear through some WW ambassadors the plan is changing in January. A new plan always gives me inspiration. I wasnt a big fan of Free style, i like all the 0 point foods but its calories in calories out ..well i went to wish you all the best on this journey! Glad i found your channel keep them coming 👏👏👏💯💯
Thank you Bobbie you have been a God send on this new journey. I am new to WW but have no real support from family, even though my MD told me to lose30lbs My family has seen me loose the weight and put it back on so they are not going to back me till I lose alot. They don't get the daily struggle with food. Plus being 56 and 5 1 and started at 160. Lbs most people don't think I need to lose the weight. Sorry for rambling i just wanted to let you know your tips have been helpful and to remember to pray for strength. Thank you again and praying for you on your journey
Eat carnivore I'm 61 and I'm losing weight like I did as a teenager when I was starving myself and I'm now not starving because I eat plenty of meat and low-carb vegetables

Bobbie Koppe thank you! It is the craziest feeling of my life! My name is Lori 😊 you are beautiful!
It's so nice to see someone who isn't in their 20's talking about this...
I understand completely! It’s so different then when I was even 40.
Yes, Yes, Yes. It is so true. I lost 60 pounds in 2018, and I need to re-motivate myself to continue losing.
Your mantra really hit me hard for some reason. Probably because I've spent my whole life doing it again and again. I should probably do it right this time. I did attend my very first WW meeting this morning, though! I am very excited and feeling positive! Thank you for all of the very helpful advice. 🙂

OMG...I'm on Keto and I pray too. Prayers do work!
Amen, they do indeed Millie!
I am on Keto too! I love it and with this lifestyle, I am not hungry......try chaffles!
Just starting this weight loss journey. This is exactly what I needed to hear. My pics were very eye opening 🙄😱😰. Great advice and inspiration!
Hi Joy! I know how hard it is at the beginning. Good for you for getting started-you reached your first goal 🤗! Yay You!
Plateaus are hard. Your body has stabilized. Be patient!

50 is amazing! Well done!
Another great motivating video, and I’m not even on a weight loss journey, but it just is overall good motivation for any goal.
Excellent video and checklist! I am going to re-start and do this the Right way -- and not again!
That’s awesome Kathy! ...NOT AGAIN!

10 lbs is still a big deal! Think about how big even 10 lbs seemed at first! 💕
pick up a ten pound bag of sugar or flour or two 5# bags! That’s what you’ve lost!
You are great I am just starting again. Need to lose 30 pounds. You are a big help. My husband is so hard on me that I gave up. But now I am doing this for myself!
NEVER give-up on yourself! Cheering for you Debra!
