went to WW yesterday

so i figured i'd go attend a meeting yesterday. didnt wanna fall of track with attending my weight watchers meetings. i didnt weigh in. but i did weigh myself at home twice. the day after i got back from ohio my bf's scale said i was 166.2. then on wed. morning i weighed again @ home and it said 164.2. eh, so it must be alot of water weight i gained and even if it is just a pound, thank god!

i ate sooooo much in just one long weekend. if i knew ohio was gonna be all about food i would have prepared better. but im fine with my choices. i counted points everyday and tracked on my iphone except one day and even though i ate shitty things i didnt beat myself up. i was happy. i was with my friends and all was well.

since tuesday i've been eating much better. and i'm just trying to be 163 again by next tuesday and then on from there. i wanna make a video tonight. i was totally gonna do it yesterday but i was (and am) stressed and out and bummed from work. somethings gotta change on that end. anyhoo....back to work i go.

weighed in today...maybe i'll call it weigh in #1 :)

so i must be a psychic. because i predicted my weight last week to be 163.2 by this week. and this tuesday i am 163.0!!! that is a 1.2 lb loss. woot! i exceeded it by .2. purty happy. :)

i feel really good about last week. i brought in lunches (mostly healthy choice meals) and when i didn't bring in lunch i opted for a salad and some sort of soup. also i made sure to have my oatmeal and actually stayed within points on most days. i think it helped having groceries and meals available to me. because even though i'm not one to plan my meals (never have been) atleast i have access to foods that will help me stay on plan. (mental note: buy groceries for this week)

i cooked my dinner once last week (i made chicken fajitas, yum!) the other times me and my babes got sushi (brown rice spicy tuna = love). i ate all of my weekly points and my activity points. i gained 14 activity points so you know i was in the gym! lol. i really want to take class though

next week i would love to see a loss. but i have two huge challenges. on friday night i leave for ohio to spend 3 days with my friends (happy eating and drinking much? :/) and also on tuesday i'm schedule to get my period. i may not weigh in next tuesday if i feel like i usually feel on my first day. but i also may just weigh in to face the music. its hard facing that music though.

goal for next week: going to aim to lose half a pound for next week. i'm going to the gym today and tomorrrow. after that i'm not able to do so. so i either need to walk everywhere i go while away or be mindful of the foods i'm eating while i'm away. i will try my hardest to lose! even out of my comfort zone...

i was gonna make a video about my weigh in today but i'm too busy tonight to do it. i gotta pack, go to the gym, make dinner...eh. video not on my top priority (but i made one yesterday!). ill make it if at the end of the day if i have 30 minutes to spare.

weighed in today

i duno what made me do it. but i did not eat ALL of my weeklys plus some for the first time in MONTHS last week. i had 18 points left. i am so proud of me for actually sticking to the plan for a whole week. of course no perfection but a huge step towards improvement

i just weighed in at weight watchers at 164.2. that puts me down 0.6 from 2 weeks ago. a lil disappointed because on sunday i stepped on my scale and weighed 161. but i can't expect my weight to just melt off like that and i shouldnt constantly be weighing myself anyhoo. so i'll take the 0.6 loss! and aim for 1 pound next week. aiming for 163.2!!!!

i've kept at it with the gym. i actually feel pretty sore right now. ugh. i'm not going to the gym today cuz i have a date with my sweety and i usually take tuesdays off anyway to hang out. but i'm going 5 times this week.

on sunday i went food shopping and bought a bunch of frozen meals and healthy staples that i used to purchase. it had been literally MONTHS since i went grocery shopping. so sad. so i had to re stock on basically everything. ive been cooking a bit more and feeling a lot better about my choices. i'm not aiming for perfection. i can't because i'll fail. so instead i have made goals.

the first goal is to get back into the 150's. if i enter 159.9 before i step on the plane to puerto rico in 3 and a half weeks i'll be ecsatic. thats about 5 pounds from now. so i'm working on the steps to get there.

i wanna get back into vlogging. but ive been so out of it that i dont even wanna bother with it sometimes. but i know its something that will help me stay on track. so i'm going to force myself to make a video this week. top priority! no more half assing my weightloss.

on and forward!
