Happy Weight Watcher Wednesday! In the video, I talked about the Healthy Choice meal and mentioned it was 1 point. The chicken & broccoli alfredo is 1 point; however, not all are 1 point. Use the app to confirm the points (all are on the app) or if you go to the grocery store, scan with the WW app. The points will immediately show up. I've found the best prices at Target. xoxo
LOVE that you are sharing your weight loss journey! Girls our age generally are the forgotten ones. Looking beautiful and slim and physically fit are ageless. You look beautiful.💜💜
Hi Deborah, thank you so much for visiting and the lovely comment. Yes, you are correct that we are the forgotten ones. I agree with you 100%! It really is ageless. xoxo
I eat EXACTLY like you . I lost and then ‘stopped tracking’ and gained back all entirely … Tracking is essential, my opinion . I am back to tracking, your my shot in the arm !
Marlene, Just love your WW videos because they really do help me to incorporate some new foods. I'm in awe of your WW journey and congratulate you on your progress. It's not easy for sure, and you have done an outstanding job of staying on course and coming up with such great food choices so that it doesn't get boring!
Hi Gabby, thank you so much! I'm so happy you're enjoying my WW video and that they're helpful. I love to cook even though I don't always have the time. I try to take from dishes that I love and make them work for me. Today, I started recording a vlog type video showing what I eat for each meal. My goal is to show at least 5 days of what I eat and hopefully that will help. xoxo
So proud of your results Marlene! 💜 I wrote out my grocery list while watching your video. Your honesty in sharing your weight loss journey with us is so refreshing, thanks! ~ Jennie ~
Marlene you look fabulous!!! I'm so happy for you - you put in the hard work, made the time & dedication to invest in yourself. YOU are beautiful inside & out!
Thank you so much! I am so glad I found your video. I am the type of person I need visuals. LOL! I hope you continue to share foods. I have not joined WW yet but I am hoping to ASAP. I think I could do this program a lot easier than counting macos!
I’m glad I found your channel. You gave me some excellent ideas to have on hand. Bolthouse Avocado Cilantro is also my favorite but I do enjoy the other flavors, too.😊
I eat the exact same as u, smoothies and all, I’m 61 and I’m a Costco Shopper too! Love that popcorn! Sargento is great real cheese and they make 40 calorie thins slices in different kinds of cheese.
I just love it when you do WW foods videos among many others on skin care etc. did you buy all the snack type foods at Costco? I’ve not seen them but may have missed them.
Hi Sharon, I don't get everything at Costco. I do get items such as fruits, vegetables and frozen items; however, many of the snack type foods such as the Fiber One and Premier Protein drinks, I get at Target or Publix. xoxo
Great ideas - I’m also a fan of several of your favorites, including Great Thins crackers (Jalapeño is the best), Premier Protein (Have you tried the pumpkin spice? It’s only 2 pts.) and Velveeta slices (so very nice and melty!).
Hi Melanie! Oooh, I love the Jalapeno Good Thins! No, I haven't tried the Pumpkin Spice! I'm picking up groceries tomorrow and will have that flavor on my list. Thank you so much for letting me know. xoxo
Love, love your videos, do you ever film makeup and fashion, I really look forward to your videos, how about how much have you lost and maybe some before and after pics❤️ anyway, I love your energy and not only are you beautiful but your so sweet too😀
Hi Marty, thank you so much! I'm so happy you found my channel. You can do this!!! Just take one day at a time, don't starve yourself, and don't deprive yourself from foods you enjoy! xoxo Marlene
Help me get started again on WW. How did you manage starting? I am out of control and can't seem to get in the groove. So any help is greatly appreciated💖
Haven't seen you in a while. Hope you are well. I just rejoined Weight Watchers and preparing to start this week. My mind is not in the right place yet ugh! Talk soon I hope
Hi Barb, thank you so much! I'm so happy you enjoyed my video. When I started on WW August 2021, I wasn't doing any exercising. In November 2021, my little Phoenix came into my life, and I had to walk him various times per day. Short strolls with him turned into longer walks. Now I walk anywhere from 7K to 12K steps/day. I take 5 or 6 walks each day; each walk is 15 - 20 minutes. That's the only type of exercise I do. I think the walking has helped tremendously. xoxo
Hi Marlene. I’ve been watching your journey. I lost 70lbs on keto RIGHT before I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I felt the best I had ever. Then the chemo etc. it’s been 3 years out of chemo and a year since my brother died of cancer. I’ve been struggling!!! We live a keto lifestyle. However, I just feel like it’s not working for me anymore. I was wondering, how tall are you? I know you are mid 60’s. I never would have dreamed you were a size 20. I’m 5’7” and am a size 16. But I am BIG REARED. Lolol. I may like to give this a try to maybe balance my body…. Since nothing seems to be working.
Hi Cheryl, thank you so much for visiting. I'm so sorry to read about all you've been through. I tried Keto for a bit, but I just couldn't stay with it. I'm 5'4" and 65. Yes, I was pretty huge for my height and am also big reared LOL. Sending big hugs, xoxo
Wow Marlene that is a lot of weight, congratulations. Your face looks firm, you are lucky that it doesn't show the weight change, good genetics. Do you think any meds that you might have been taking were causing you weight gain?
Hi Xassy, thank you so much! I think it's genetics as well. I have never taken any prescription medication. I take D3, Omega 3, Multivitamin gummies and nothing else. I believe my weight gain really piled on after losing my son. I was depressed and turned to food for comfort. It was perhaps the lowest point in my life. I really have nothing to blame except the constant eating from the moment I woke up till I went to sleep. When I wasn't eating, I'd be sleeping. After 2 years of this, I realized my eating habits were only harmful to me. Nothing was going to bring my son back, and I still have another child that, while an adult, may still need me from time to time. xoxo
I want you to know this is helping me. Having you share your tips is extremely helpful. I am big on my upper body a 1x and size 14 pant. I can afford to get my boobs made smaller but I know for my well being its better to watch what I eat and the biggie is portion control. And as my doctor said it's what I'm eating. Please please continue to share. I may join ww
Hi Suzanne, thank you so much for such a sweet comment. It brings me so much happiness to know my videos are helpful. I will certainly continue to share! Something that helped me with portion control when I first started was serving my meals on a dessert plate. Whatever I was going to eat had to fit in the dessert plate (no seconds). As time went on, I realized I didn't need a full dinner plate. I hope this helps xoxo
Hi C, the girls are great! I saw Steph in Sept when I was in WA for a business trip with Wigstudio1. Christie is doing well but they both work endless hours. I will let them know you asked about them. Big hugs, my friend! xoxo
@@MarleneFabGlamOver50 I'm happy to hear that they are well. I'm glad that you got to see Steph. I'm glad to hear that Christie is ok. Take care. Big hugs.
Hi Joy, thank you for stopping by. I only use the app on my phone. I don't go to meetings. There's nothing wrong with going to meetings, and they're very helpful to many on the program, but my preference is the app. xoxo
Hi Theresa! Thank you so much for visiting and the sweet suggestion! I'd love to be a WW coach! Please keep me posted on your progress, feel free to ask any questions, and remember to just take it one day at a time. xoxo
Hi Mariel, I don't have a lot of loose skin, but I do have some (upper arms and neck); Even when I was at my heaviest, I had a pretty flat stomach (genes, I guess). I carry the excess weight on my arms and lower body. I don't know if walking has helped diminish the excess on my thighs. xoxo Marlene
Hi Debra, yes, you're correct. However, I only make my smoothies with almond milk, protein powder, and frozen fruit (instead of ice). But, yes, anything else the points are different. Thank you for pointing it out. xoxo
Thank you so much! You've made my day! I can't remember when I posted this video, but I know it was earlier this year. I did have a neck and lower facelift in Sept. Just want to be transparent. xoxo
I think it really depends on where you're located. I'm in FL and the prices here may be less than say CA. In Florida, this type of facelift can run between $10K and $15K, perhaps more in South FL. I'm in central FL and prices her may be a bit less. My suggestion is to make sure the surgeon is Board Certified, interview different surgeons, and ask for references from family and friends if you can. xoxo Marlene

Hi Marlene, next time could you make a salad that you eat so we can see the portion size, I tend to overdue it. Thank you❤
Hi Bea, yes, I can do that. However, salads are zero points on WW so I pile it on with all non-starchy vegetables. xoxo
I love Bolthouse Dresings!
i just found your channel today. Great video!
Thank you so much, Jill! xoxo

Alright. .I'm singing up for WW. Maybe you could add being a WW coach to your resume 😉
Hi Theresa! Thank you so much for visiting and the sweet suggestion! I'd love to be a WW coach! Please keep me posted on your progress, feel free to ask any questions, and remember to just take it one day at a time. xoxo
When you make 0 point stir fry what sauce do you use/make?
Hi Stephanie, I use the Low Sodium, but I only use about 2 teaspoons or less which doesn't amount to any points. xoxo Marlene
Help me make the right food choices. Started ww 3 was ago and stagnant
Did you have a lot of lose skin?? I am a little older then you and see the lose skin.
Hi Mariel, I don't have a lot of loose skin, but I do have some (upper arms and neck); Even when I was at my heaviest, I had a pretty flat stomach (genes, I guess). I carry the excess weight on my arms and lower body. I don't know if walking has helped diminish the excess on my thighs. xoxo Marlene
@@MarleneFabGlamOver50 thank you
WW "charges" you more points if you make a smoothie or shake rather than eating the food whole. Just saying.
Hi Debra, yes, you're correct. However, I only make my smoothies with almond milk, protein powder, and frozen fruit (instead of ice). But, yes, anything else the points are different. Thank you for pointing it out. xoxo
Are you telling me that you are 65?????!!!!!!!
Hi, thank you so much for visiting! Yes, I turned 66 this past September! xoxo Marlene
@@MarleneFabGlamOver50 is amazing! You look less than 50!!
Thank you so much! You've made my day! I can't remember when I posted this video, but I know it was earlier this year. I did have a neck and lower facelift in Sept. Just want to be transparent. xoxo
@@MarleneFabGlamOver50 ohhhhh!!!! I want that too!!! Is it expensive???
I think it really depends on where you're located. I'm in FL and the prices here may be less than say CA. In Florida, this type of facelift can run between $10K and $15K, perhaps more in South FL.
