You would think that I should be happy about my weigh in and being down but the truth is I am not. It was an awful week and my eating was not good at all. I really deserved a gain and know I could have done so much better.
We are away this weekend in Watertown, New York for a baseball tournament and some shopping and I know my eating is going to be horrendous which is why I think this week I was off track. Everytime I know I am going to go away and take it easy with WW I always end up screwing myself over the week leading up to it. It is awful!
What does everyone else have planned for this weekend?

Falling Already!
It has been a few days and I have not been a good girl. I am seriously debating whether or not I am going to weigh in tomorrow. I have a love/hate relationship with being a lifetime member at Weight Watchers. Since I don’t have to weigh in every week I sometimes take advantage of that even though I know I should since it helps me stay on program. I haven’t decided what to do yet.
I haven’t been terribly off program but I have splurged the last couple days and went over my points both day. It is purely stress related. Since I know why I am doing it you would think I would be able to stop but it is a lot harder said then done.
My plan today is to stay 100% OP and drink 3 liters of water.
So far today I am down .5L…. I will keep you posted on my water consumption throughout the day. Maybe this one small goal will get me started and back on track!

Back on Track (Again...)
Why is it that weekends always go so quickly? I can’t believe it is Monday again already!
So the weekend was pretty much a write off. Yesterday I actually managed to stay within my points although the food choices I made were not great. I had my first binge in a very long time. It was 10 points worth of cookies… gross! I forgot how awful you feel after you binge, I had a tummy ache all night.
In any case, I am back at her tonight and I am going to have to work very hard if I want to see something pretty on the scale on Friday.
Here is my menu for the day so far:
B – Toast with peanut butter (3)
S – Apple (1)
L – Raw veggies (0) lean cuisine macaroni & cheese (5)
S – 2 Lindor chocolates (3)
That leaves me with 10 points for tonight which is doable because I am staying in to watch the hockey game with Matt and cooking dinner. I also walked to work and will be walking home so I am feeling good about that.
Now all I have to do is drink 1000 liters of water and I will be doing just fine!

Weekend Woes
Why do weekends have to be so hard?
It is only Saturday night and all of my flex points are gone for the week I am sure. The funny part of the whole thing is that I don't even feel good about it and the food I ate def. was not even worth it.
The husband and I had a date night yesterday since Easton was staying with his Nonna for the night. We went to see The Hanger (funniest movie ever by the way) and on the way home decided to stop at Red Lobster. I had a chicken cesaer salad and 2 buns which isn't the worst choice but not the best either.
Today in attempts to make up for it I took Easton for a lonnng walk with my sister in law and neice. We walked to the mall and back (45 minutes each way) and walked in the mall for an hour and a half. Afterwards though I came home and had left over Red Lobster and a caramel drumstick. How dumb is that?
Anyways... at least I have the rest of the week to make it up starting now!! Water is going to be my new best friend for the next 5 days!
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend... at least the weather is finally gorgeous!!

Weigh In - 163.8!!
Holy weight loss batman!
That is down 4 from the last time I weighed in (which was 3 weeks ago) but I think I stayed around the same for the 2 weeks that I missed. I didn't think I did that good this week but I guess it was a lot better than I had been. I am sure the walking helps as well. I also believe that some of it is still baby weight that is falling off.
Minor annoyance: I hate when Weight Watchers rounds and put 164 on my card. I worked hard for that .2 pounds! Oh well it will reflect it next week when I lose even more!
Not sure whats on the menu for today. I brought my lunch (soup and a salad) and had toast and peanut butter for breaky but dinner on Friday is always scary because I feel like I just weighed in and now can "cheat".
We are going out to a movie with another couple and probably for a bite to eat afterwards. I will let you know tomorrow how it goes!! Wish me luck!

Happy Hump Day
This is when it start to get hard and I give up. Not this time though.
The last couple days have been pretty good and when I did my midweek weigh in today things were looking up… or should I say down. The frustrating thing is when I go to Weight Watchers on Friday I know it will be more than at home because it will be in the afternoon after I have eaten and with clothes on. Oh well, as long as the scale is going the right way and I am being consistent with my weigh in it shouldn’t matter.
I had a good plan for today but everything got screwed up with my husband and sister showed up for lunch with my son! I think I did pretty good with the temptation.
Here is todays menu:
B – WW muffin (3)
S – Raspberries and cool whip (2)
L – Turkey club with no cheese, no mayo and side salad with no dressing (8)
D – (My lunch) Chicken with mini pasta soup at hand (2) turkey sandwich on ww bread (3) raw veggies with ff caeser dressing (1)
That leaves me with 4 left over points that I am not quite sure what I will use for. I bought these delicious frozen yogurt bars that are only 80 calories that I will probably indulge in. I also saw WW muffins in the grocery store for the first time in Canada yesterday and got excited. Although I had one this morning and it wasn’t very good to be honest and I don’t think I will buy them again. The ones in the States are much better (and bigger!!)
As for exercise I walked to work today and I am meeting a friend of mine from prenatal class to go for a walk with our little guys. That should be a lot of fun to get together with someone who is going through a similar stage right now.
I really love how a lot of bloggers take pictures of their food to post and I think I might try that. I think it will really help me keep focused!

Chug-a-lug!
I am so not good at drinking water… I think it is something you have to get used to and I am trying again but it is tough! I always forget. With that being said… chug a lug!
Yesterday wasn’t perfect but it wasn’t bad either. We ended up going out to Swiss Chalet for dinner and I had a quarter chicken white meat with a salad, bun & sauce. I did give into a chocolate chip cookie in the afternoon though. I find between 2pm-4pm is the hardest snack time for me! After 4pm I know I am going home soon so I can wait but it is the mid afternoon that kills me. Today I gave in to some Hershey kisses but only 3 points worth so I am still fine for tonight!! It is TOM which I think is part of the reason why I want chocolate so bad!!
Krista suggested bringing in fruits & veggies to have at my desk and I am going to try that for sure. I know that I need to get things prepared before hand so I am going to take 20 minutes tonight and cut up a bunch of veggies to have handy to bring for lunches!
Anywho… I did walk to work today, which was good! Again the weather isn’t too great so I may not be walking home but we will see.
Here is my menu:
B – apple & cinnamon oatmeal (3) all bran bar (2)
S – granola bar (2) … I was supposed to save this for the afternoon but was starving!!
L – sweet & sour chicken lean cuisine (6)
S – Hershey kisses (3)
I am not sure about dinner yet I only have 7 points left unless I use some AP so I will have to figure something out!
I haven’t stepped on the scale since last week so I have no idea what it is going to look like but I am hoping for a good number on Friday. My goal would be 165 at Weight Watchers at lunch (down 2).
