Weight Watchers - 4th week of February

[Stacy]

Sometimes the scale is a mystery....so I havent been tracking points very closely at all, havent been eating that great...for example last night had 3 huge pieces of a chicago sausage deep dish pizza...day before that had 2 huge servings of full fat macaroni and cheese for dinner plus bread and butter. I havent worked out since Tuesday.

Today I weighed in after I already had eaten breakfast, lunch and had a snack....I'm DOWN 1.2 lbs from my official weigh-in on Wednesday...only 3 days ago! What the heck?? I'm not complaining but sometimes I just have to sit back and scratch my head and wonder if it's worth trying to make sense of it all!!

Stacy: At times I have to scratch my head as well. I figure eating healthy pays off in many ways not just the scale, so I know it is the right way to do things.

No workout on the weekend. Yesterday I did do shoveling of wet slushy snow. I also ate 3/4 of a small cheese pizza. I still have 9 wp left until Monday night. I am going to behave and try not to use up all my wps.

Menu:

B: hard boiled egg, oats,blueberries,flax,agave syrup 6pts
L: grapes,4 egg whites,scallion,mushrooms.spinach,ketchup and arnold thin 1 slice of american cheese 6pts
S: apple and sunbutter and maybe a part of a grapefruit 5pts
D: chicken thigh, veggie (? not sure) brown rice or sweet potato ( 7 or 8 pts for dinner)
S: either yogurt and banana and granola or sugar free pudding and banana

my total will be around 27 or 30.

Alright, Ladies, I'm motivated by what I'm reading.

Jennifer, I bought dark Chocolate today. I'm a little scared. Dang, it's 7PPs a serving. I'll have to be carefule fitting it in. Its the 70% kind. its will probably be a good thing if I don't like it, that way I wont eat the whole bar.

Melissa, yeah back to my old kick-butt self was on the sofa in lala land by 1:45 -2:30 today. I had to literally drag myself off the recliner only to do the slow-crawl to the bedroom and drop back down for another hour. Did I do Athletic Step or did it do me? I cant tell. hahahaha. And, man your menu sounds great today. What an inspiration. And I too dread Low Max, I haven't done it in years. Good luck with that one.

Stacy, you got one of those over-indulgent scale surprised, huh? Yeah, I get those on thursday mornings after I've had burger and fries on Wed night. It makes no sense to me except maybe - since we work so hard so many days trying to stap on point, that our bodies think we're in starvation mode. Then we over-indulge a little and the body releases some weight for us. It really can be scary. But that the way it goes sometimes. congrats on that great surprise.
Im liking your menu today. Enjoy that hamburger tonight.

Elaine, you've got a great menu today also. Such variety. I love it. Did you make some kind of pizza for Lunch on that sandwich thin?

My menu:
S. Peanuts = 2
B. 3 eggs, collards, milk - 8
S. small brownie - 3
L. soup, crackers - 6
s. banana, brownie, chicken, apple sauce - 8
D. salad, chicken, - 6
S. ice cream - 4
38 - total

Alright, Yall. I've gabbed enough. i'm heading off to clean house.

I did so well during the day then....not so much. I had 8 pts after the burger...I used 2 on Sugar Free Jello Pudding, about 6 on pretzels....then had about 2 handfuls of potato chips then one chocolate covered caramel

I do feel a bit more in control and determined today despite the after dinner minor catastrophe. We're having dinner at my in-law's tomorrow night and I already know she's making home made vegetable beef soup, so at least it's not a comfort food with heavy gravies, etc. I'll skip the bread I know will be served with the soup, and if I do well the beginning of the day, I'll have a tiny portion of dessert....there's always dessert at the in-law's!

At 11 pts so far today after breakfast and lunch. I only had time for a very short workout today...did 25 min on the treadmill (5 min walking warmup, followed by 8 min jog/2 min walk x 2 rounds).

I caved and ordered another workout dvd set! I ordered Supreme 90...10 dvds for $19.95 says collagevideo! I officially have run out of room in my storage area!
