This week, I lost 0.2 pounds. This week has been an off week for me (I'm still not eating junk food). There was one day that I took a nap (at 9:45 in the morning!) right after I had put Audrey down. I had planned on working out at that time, but I was soooo tired! I've had a major sweet tooth, and I just haven't had any energy. I know...it makes it sound like I'm pregnant, right? Well, thankfully I'm not (we do want at least one more, but not anytime soon!), but the proof that I'm most definitely not pregnant is what's lead to a week of feeling tired, munchy, and lacking energy. I plan on being MUCH better with everything next week.
Some successes of mine this week:
1. We went to Twisted Root for burgers one day. I got a turkey burger. I really wanted something crunchy on the side, so I asked Michel to stop at a gas station for me and I got a bag of Cheez-Its, ha! Plus, the bag had 3 servings in it, so I counted out one serving, and threw the rest away. We don't normally keep chips or crackers in the house because it's so easy to sit there and munch on them and lose track of how much you've eaten. Snack foods of any kind are my absolute weakness.
Here's to a new week of eating better, and definitely working out better! Hope everyone's enjoying their weekend! Audrey and I are going to get outside and walk and enjoy some much-needed fresh air!
I just saw that there's a new Weight Watchers candy that is available at Brookshire's. I don't know if it's at other stores, also, but they have chocolate covered caramels and dark chocolate pieces. Since they are pre-packaged, it's sometimes easier to control the portion you eat. That might satisfy those cravings, at least when you go back to having a little junk food here and there. Yesterday at our WW meeting, they reminded us that ideally we should be losing between .2 and 2 pounds weekly. You seem to be doing things the right way. When you lose slowly, you have a better chance of keeping it off. At least that's my totally "professional" opinion. lol
