Boo!

Weighed in yesterday. I'm up a pound from last week. BOO!!!!

I probably ate too much over the weekend. I have not been super diligent about tracking on the weekends, trusting that since I had x number of activity points and 49 weekly points (that I always save for the weekends) that I was safe. And it's been working...

On one hand it annoys me. Adds to my feeling of being overwhelmed. I mean, it's not like I spent the weekend shoveling food in my face nonstop. And during the week I don't always use up all my points, either.

On the other hand, I kinda wonder if I should be making a point to eat more during the week. At the very least, using all my daily points. That and maybe not show up hungry to parties.

Ugh...

For weeks I've been "weight loss, yay!" But today I am feeling overwhelmed by how far I still have to go. It's the beginning of month 4. Month 4 of.... 12? 14 Maybe? Who knows how long it will take.

I'm not tired of the diet or anything. Not right now anyway. I'm kind of used to it now. And I'm also so used to eating low fat foods that many of my former favorite things now make me sick. It's a great deterrent. I don't miss pizza at all anymore. Last night I had some points to burn and I had Chex Mix. But I nibbled at half the bag. I didn't "need" to eat the whole thing. Huge progress!

But still, I guess I'm just anxious to reach the finish line.

10%

As of today, I am down 29 pounds. According to WW, I have now lost 10% of my body weight. Woo!

Let's hope...

I called my insurance company today to find out if the membership fees for Weight Watchers Online counted as a reimbursable expense for my flex account. They said maybe, but I have to get a letter of medical necessity from my doctor first. That should not be a problem, considering joining WW was her idea in the first place.

Gonna have to make a doctor's appointment!

Cool.

I feel like I ate a LOT today but somehow I still have points left. Weird. Awesome.

Dang.

I made rice krispie bars for a dinner party on Tuesday, and even ate one. I have been craving pastry the last couple of days. Damn you, sugar, and your crack-like qualities!

This week's visual.

I lost the equivalent of about 200 sliders from White Castle.

That's 2 Crave Crates




According to a google search I did, I also have lost the equvalent of 5 bags of sugar or an average-size toddler. But 2 Crave Crates makes such a better mental image for me.
