Back on Track

This past week I have felt like I am in a groove. There were days when I didn't exactly count, but I could read my hunger queues a little better and for the most part I made good choices. Weight loss this week, 3.6 (again) for a total of 9.8 in 5 weeks. I am feeling good. Last night, I was out and saw a friend that I haven't seen in a couple of months. He said that I looked less stressed, more relaxed and pretty. Nice! I also have a date this Saturday! We shall see how that goes.

Goal for this week? Make it through LOL! Pace myself day by day and not beat myself up for small slip ups.

I GAINED weight???

Ok. So the 4th week not so good. I got lazy and STOPPED counting last Saturday. then I didn't count Sunday, even though my WW buddy and I went to hours of trouble to make WW friendly Super Bowl snacks. However, you can only eat SOME of them, not ALL of them. I have to say that I had my monthly visitor on my weigh in day and that could account for part of my 1.4 gain, but probably not all.

The question is, did I get back on track this week? Kind of. I made myself accountable even when I ate over what I should have. I paid attention to my choices. Was I perfect? NO. Is the weekend still coming? YES. Are there parties? OF COURSE. And the biggest question- can I do it? YES!

My current goal is to lose a total of 15 pounds before I visit my sister on March 17th. I have lost 6.2 pounds. About 4 weeks to lose 9 more pounds. VERY doable.

Big Loss and Feeling Good!

Weigh in today...I lost 3.6 this week! I am down 7.6 total and feeling pretty good about it. I am back to not feeling deprived, although I did purposely take it easy drinking this weekend for fear of water retention. My WW leader suggested flushing with lots of water after over-indulgence :)

Right now I am feeling good and motivated. If I could only find a boyfriend....
