Well I got knocked down last week with a gain of 1.6 pounds. At weigh in today I lost 2.8 pounds which was amazing! So I lost the 1.6 I gained and added 1.2 more pounds to boot! So I am now down to 270.2 pounds and about ready to say hello to the 260's. I am 1.2 pounds away from a 30 pound loss. I have lost a total of 28.8 pounds! I am proud of me.
I did not write down 100% of my bites. I petered out on Thursday at dinner. One day this week I hit 103% of my daily activity goal, it is the first and only time I have done that. It is so blasted cold right now. I have taken to taking the long way to the bathroom at work when I am at work. I walk all the way around the perimeter of the call center to and from the bathroom. That helps get me closer to my activity goals.
We have had some fruit in the house and that has helped this week. One day, Tuesday I got off of work starving because I didn't take lunch with me and I stopped at Wendy's on the way home. I got a cheeseburger deluxe at 9 points and a small chocolate frostie at 15 points! Yikes! But I didn't eat when I got home and actually came in that day using all my daily points and none of my weekly allowance.
At a meeting months ago I briefly heard mention of meal planning sites. I went looking and found "Shrinking on A Budget" last Sunday. Some enterprising woman puts together weekly meal plan using foods and ingredients that you would normally have in any kitchen. Each week you get the meal plan for Weight Watcher meals and snacks with the recipes for those meals and the shopping list! It costs $10 for a year! I absolutely love it. The meals are reasonable, have you ever seen recipes in magazines and cookbooks with these wild ingredients? This is not like that, it is real world. I joined and love this! I print off the weekly meal plan and then put them in a 3 ring binder. LOVE IT!!
It has been a great week, really, and I will sign off for now. Until we eat again!
