And the weekly weigh in is...

Hello Everyone! I hope you are all doing well! Yesterday I had my weigh in and yay...I am down one pound!!! Again, I seem to be losing about .8 - 1 pound a week. A slow and steady process, but probably the best way to do it. Last week I had one really crazy day where I ate a lot of cereal and had a bagel with cream cheese in the morning, and did not eat a proper dinner. I'm quite sure I used all my 35 weekly points that day. Anywhoo, since last Wednesday was so bad, I made sure I got some extra exercise in and ate well the rest of the week -including the weekend :-) What I did realize from last Wednesday's blow out was, when I do not eat right or overload my body, almost immediately I do not feel well at all. I feel bloated, cramped and in a not so happy mood. So, another reason to keep eating well is I feel so much better! How have you guys been doing?

And the weekly weigh in....

Today is my weekly weigh in day. Drum roll please...... .8lbs. That's correct people, I've lost .8lbs. Which means I am now down 7lbs. As they say, slow and steady wins the race. This seems to be my case as every week I have either lost just shy of a pound or a pound. When added up though, this does make a difference. Monday's are always hard for me as a weigh in date. Only because I know I have to get through the weekend in a good way. I record my weight every Monday, but I do weigh myself 2 or 3 times a week, definitely on Fridays. Every Friday, I weigh much less though! Although, weighing in on Monday's does help me keep things organized throughout the weekend. For example, if I know I have a party to go to Saturday night, Ill make sure I get my workouts in during the week, to bank points. This also helps me carefully plan out my 35 extra weekly points. Even though I had lasagna (soooo delicious) and ricotta cheesecake Saturday night, I still managed not to gain any weight, and lose .8 pounds.

As they say, slow and steady wins the race!

How have you guys been doing?

Week One of the New Year...

Hello Everyone! So, week one of the new year is coming to a close. Were you able to keep up with your healthy lifestyle this week? This week has been a good week for me. My breakfasts have been almond butter with agave nectar on an Arnold's Whole Wheat thins, except for one day where I made myself non fat greek yogurt with a teaspoon of slivered almonds and a weak drizzle of agave nectar...mmm..delicious :-) Lunch this week has consistenly been lean proteins with veggies. I even had KFC, GRILLED chicken (a drumstick and thigh), I did not eat the skin and it was so juicy and delicious and definitely a light option! My snacks have been 1/4 avocados, almonds and grapefruits...not bad. Lastly, dinner has been seafood or chicken with a veggie of some sort. Now, I've also had the occasional sweet tooth and I've been calming this by having a MINI chocolate, not more than 2 a day. My exercise has also been good this week. I've managed to log in about 13 miles of running!!! Not bad!!! All in all, a very good week and down 2 pounds...now to just get through the weekend :-p How did you guys do?

And the results are in...

After a week of getting back on track and watching what I eat, excersising and utilizing my Points Manager, I've lost 1.6 pounds!!! Not bad at all! However, the toughest part of the week is always the weekend, so I need to make sure I make wise choices! Have you guys had your weigh ins yet?

Weekly Weigh In...

I am going to be brutally honest here. I've gained 4 pounds. Yes, probably mainly due to the lack of exercising I did and not watching my diet as carefully as I should have since I was adjusting with work. 4 pounds...seriously...in a week and a half! The only thing that I can do now is stay on track. How did you guys do?

***Weekly Weigh In***

This morning I went to weigh myself and see that I am still 132....not bad, didn't gain or lose!

Weekly Weign In...

Good Morning Everyone, So, I was a bit nervous to get on the scale this morning, given all the Indian food I ate on Wednesday! However, like I said, I know I did not over eat on my portions. Needless, to say, I got on the scale this morning and I was 132 :-) YAY!!! Only 12 more pounds to go!!! I'm pretty sure my regular workouts are really helping me out. How was your weekly weigh in?

Weekly Weigh In...

Good Morning Everyone, So, I had my weekly weigh in this morning. This morning I weighed in at 135! No change from last week, but no change is always good :-) Atleast I didn't gain weight! I noticed as I get closer to my goal weight, the weight comes off much slower, but it does come off.

Weekly Weign In...

Hey Guys, Stay tuned tomorrow for the weekly weigh in!!

Weekly Weign In...

Good Morning Ppls, As promised, today is the weekly weigh in. Last week I weigned in at 135, 15 pounds away from my goal weight. This morning I woke up a lil nervous to weight myself. As you all have probably read, I had a really bad day this week! However, thank goodness I've been going to the gym because this must have helped me out a lot! Today, I got on the scale and it read 134!!! Go me...I know it's only one pound, but trust me, as you get closer to your goal weight, some weeks you won't even lose weight! So this is a big accomplishment. Now, only 14 more to go :-)

Sooo...Here's What I'm Thinking

I'm thinking about posting my weekly weigh ins, which I usually do on Friday's. Would anyone be brave enough to do this with me? If not, I understand, but I'm not ashamed to say that as of right now, I weigh 135, and my goal is to get to 120. Hopefully doing weekly weigh ins will help ME stay on track!
