Last night was weigh in and I didn’t do as good as I was thinking I did. I didn’t lose anything, I stayed the same. I didn’t meet my goal of losing 3-5lbs this mouth and that is very disappointing, I don’t like to fail, I worked hard, followed the program, counted all my damn points, and nothing………WTF!!!! So at the meeting I talked to the people that I think are doing great so have met their goals and others are almost there so I went to them for information and what I got was good. They seem to think that its because I’m stuck in a food rut, I eat the same things all the time. If you look in my freezer there is nothing in there but chicken, turkey and veggies. It’s all we eat, everyday I cook chicken, so this week I’m going to try to eat fish, red meat, & chicken meals. I’ve also changed what I take for lunch, I almost always have a salad and a frozen dinner, well today I have a ham sandwich on WW bread with out cheese…….yes thats right me the rat is trying not to eat so much cheese this week. I also discovered that I was only getting one kind of dairy, so this week I’m going to try to have a yogurt and glass of milk for my dairy. I hope this will help to break out of the 160’s for good, I’ve about the same weight for a while now.
I’m still going to be answering the questions everyday and February’s goal will be to lose 3-5lbs. I hope get there!
I also want to congratulate Kristy for doing a great job and meeting her goal, she’s on a roll and hope she can keep it up!
Tonight is weigh in for me and feel like its going to be a good week for me. I’ve counted my points, drank all my water and even got a bit of activity in the form of playing with the puppy. I hope the scale reflects how I’m felling, wish me luck. I’ll be back with official weight loss tonight after the meeting!

The new week starts again today, not a new points week but a new work week. I was in such a rush today that I left the house with out my cell phone, turning the tv off and brushing my teeth….gross I know. Anyway I did manage to grab a low point lunch as I was pushing the puppy out the door. Today is a dare care day and I didn’t want him to late, because then I would be late for work and I hate that. Anywho for the first weekend in a long time I didn’t over eat. It feels great to know that I’m having a great week and the weekend didn’t undo anything I did the week before. Thats really all I wanted to say today, I’ll be back on tonight with answers to my questions and a new recipe that I got off line, creamy lemon pie

Oh the weekend is upon me and I don’t want to blow it like I did last week. I don’t know what it is about Saturday and Sunday that I forget to track and count and drink water, the things that are part of every day life for me. But this weekend my goal is to track, and drink water.
Tonight is a crazy night for me, see my mother-in-law called Monday and asked if we could come for dinner again this week, thinking we didn’t have anything to do said yes. That’s same night my husbands aunt called him and asked if they could come over to see the house, they haven’t seen it since we redid the bedroom, my hubby thinking we didn’t have anything to do said yes. SO NOW we have to places to be at the sometime, we I called and ironed it all out. We are eating dinner at my in laws and then its off to his aunts. Not the way his aunt wanted it, but hey what can I tell ya, call me and not my clueless husband. He never knows whats going, he forgets things doesn’t write them down, he’s like every other man that I know, but hey I love him! Then the rest of week end is okay. I think that I have to go to dinner at moms on Sunday we’ll see.
So today I want to have another good day on plan and continue that through the weekend. Have a great weekend everyone!
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Yesterday was another good day on plan, sorry I didn’t get this up last night my Internet wouldn’t work at home.

Here is the recipe that found, I made it and it came out very good. I got this recipe out of Weight Watchers Simply the Best cook book.
- 3 1/3c all-purpose flour
- 1/2c unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2c granulated sugar
- 1/2c plain non-fat yogurt
- 2 egg whites
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
- Preheat the oven to 350. Spray a 13×9 baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl combine the flour, coco powder, baking soda and salt.
- In a large bowl with and electric mixer at medium speed, beat the sugar, yogurt, egg whites, vanilla and vinegar until fluffy, about 2 minutes. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture, stir until just combined (do not overmix). Add two cups of water and stir until just smooth.
- Pour the batter into the pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool completely in the pan on a rack. Dust with confectioners’ sugar before serving.
I hope you guys like it, its my new go to chocolate cake!!!

Sorry I haven’t been keeping up with my blogging lately, my husband invited his family over for this Saturday for dinner so I’ve been running around like a nut trying to get the house in order. We don’t live like pigs or anything, but when you live in half a house this tend to get messier faster. The house we have is already small, so the living space that we have now is half of what it will be once he gets the bedroom and the office done. Then its on to the bathroom, dinning-room, living room and last but least my favorite room in the house……the kitchen! So never the less I’m trying to move stuff around so that people can walk through my very tiny house and possible find a spot to sit. So I’ve been putting things in plastic bins and taking them to the basement and all that jazz. Its really starting to look better, but you know there are still holes in the walls that haven’t been fixed yet, and the room we sleep in is still in the middle of the house, its just not what I want to show people you know. Well I’ll guess they will have to get over the fact that my house is clean but disorganized.

I will post the recipe if anyone wants it.
and the well needed weekend is on it’s way. This past week has felt so long to me, plus my puppy hasn’t been feeling well. He’s been pooping like crazy….not that you needed to know that or anything. Any way have a bunch of things to do tonight that involved driving with the puppy that can’t stop pooping in the car.
First thing on the list is to take Lucian(thats my puppies name) to his interview tonight to get into doggy day care. Seems crazy but they only take so many dogs and that have to be able to play nice with the other dogs and the people that work there. It’s a very nice place and the people are great, my mother-in-law takes her dog there.
Second thing to do is go to in laws for dinner so that the dogs can play and we spend time with Austin’s rents. I’m not sure what we are having for dinner but I do know that we are having fat free chocolate cake for dessert because I baked it last night. It looks and smells so good. Anyway I’m sure I’ll be fine there will be salad and veggies and most likely chicken so I shouldn’t have a hard time sticking to my plan.
Third thing on my list of to dos is get to the gym. I didn’t have time this morning to go because the weather was bad and I wanted to get to work on time blah blah blah roads were not that good here. Anyway if I don’t get home to late I want to run down to the gym. I should probably call and see what time they close.
I just hope that I can get the dog to these places without him pooping in the back seat of the car. Wish me luck
have a great weekend.

Know how many times have you all heard me say that, “this week I’m going to do it, I’m going to track!” I can tell you that I’m very good about keeping my promises unless they are to myself. I seem to have no problem giving in with it comes to me. Somehow I always find away to justify my bad behavior when it come to food. I’ll say things to myself like….” well hubby isn’t home no one will never know you had 3 pieces of candy” or ” you’ve had a bad day how about some ice cream you deserve it after what you’ve been through”. The truth is some days I just feel like eating, for no reason I just want to eat and eat and eat until I’m so stuffed I feel like I have vomit. These are the behaviors that I’m having the hardest time changing. It wasn’t hard to add veggies into my meals or eat chicken instead of beef……those are things that I started to do before I even started doing weight watchers.
I really feel like my lack of success had to do with the fact that I’ve addressed the issues that I just spoke about. i don’t know where to start, what I do know is I have to start controlling my feelings, and mood swings. My husband has turned me into a spoiled brat and I’m not so sure thats a good thing. I get what ever I want when I want it and he gets it for me. If I say I don’t feel like cooking lets go out, he’ll say why don’t I cook tonight I don’t know if we should spend the money. All I have to do is stomp my feet a little and look sad….he gives in every time. It should be said that this behavior that I’m not proud of. I should also tell you that I wasn’t always like this, in fact I was an easy going person at one time who do what ever and went with the flow. My father past away 3 years ago, during his 2 year battle with cancer my personality changed from this easy going, care free person….to mega bitch. I don’t know what happened I started acting out, demanding things I turned into a monster and I havn’t found my way back to who I was. Of course I stress eat when my dad was sick and that didn’t make things better as we all know it never does. Anyway the whole point of this is that life is to short not to do the things I want to do, and I want to lose weight.
So if anyone reads this post and has any suggestions on how to change my very bad behavior’s please help me. I need you guys badly. Sorry its so long and it might not make any sense to you, but I need to let it out. Thanks for reading
Also I will post answers to my questions this week!
came to visit me this weekend. That’s right my fat chick came back after all the hard work I did last week tyring to chase her away. Friday I was really good until dinner my husband and I decide that we would go to Red Robin for dinner and I had every intention of getting a salad. Well by the time we got a table I was hungry every good intention that I had went out the window….I got the burger with the fries! Then Saturday morning I was waiting for my husband to get out of bed to eat, well it was like 10:30am before he told me what he wanted for brunch. Well once again I let myself get way to hungry and instead of eating 1 sandwich I had 2 and tater tots that I didn’t keep track of how many I was eating. Then we went to dinner with friends and I had some calamari and a Salad for dinner not to bad…..oh I almost forgot the cannoli that I ate. So Sunday rolls around and once again I let myself get to hungry. I think I see a pattern here…do you. Anyway I had a bagel with a piece of cheese on it in the morning then for lunch I had a jr hamburger and child fri then we went to Aldis and when we got home I started dinner. Well I was snacking while I was cooking and before I know it I ate the whole box of wheat crackers. Not mention I was cooking stuffed shells (home made not frozen) so I ate like four of them with a salad for dinner. So as you can see i have a lot of damage control to do today. I packed a good lunch and I had my cereal this morning. Dinner tonight is going to be fish, so I should have a good day. I’m not posting my questions for the weekend but I will post again tonight with how well I did.
So now I think I need to learn how to plan better for weekends so I don’t get so hungry, and think that will help keep the fat chick away.

I know, I know everyone is always so happy for the weekend to roll around but not me. That means tomorrow is Saturday and do you know what happens to me between the hours after lunch and Monday morning? No I don’t turn into a werewolf…its worst then that I turn into the dread fat chick. I know I’ve been posting about her alot lately but I’ve been battle myself for the past few weeks, its an on going war and I’m sure all of you have your own fat chicks to deal with at time. Now back today, I’ve been doing really so far, I got up and went to the gym, had a low b-fast and lunch and I’ve controlled the Friday afternoon snacking. I have the fat chick under my thumb for now and I’m so proud that I’ve been so good this week. But tomorrow is another day and I’m going to carrabba’s for dinner with friends and you know what thats the fat chicks favorite hang out. I don’t know how I’m going to handle it. I do know that I’m going to the gym to earn some activity points tomorrow morning and I haven’t used any flexees, but still I really want to do well and I don’t want to get out of control just because I have 35pt to play with. That’s what the old Sabrina would have done, the one that fat chick controlled. The new fat chick free Sabrina, oh no I’m sticking to the plan this week no mater what!

Well today I had a really good the first I’ve had in a long time. Tomorrow I’m going to try to do just as good. Like my leader says “take it one day at a time”
good night everyone, hope everybody had a wonderful day!
So last night I gain 0.6lbs not a big gain but still I don’t like moving in that direction. When I was driving home from the meeting my favorite Cake song was playing and the refrain to the song got me thinking about my fat chick problem, so when I got home I had a nice little chat with her. I looked right at her and said “I want you out, out of my head, and out of life!” and then I put that cake song and danced around the room singing ”take your economy car and your suitcase, take your psycho little dog, take it all away.” because thats what I’ve been tyring to say to her for years. She has over stayed her welcome and I don’t need her anymore! I’m sure she is going to put up a fight but I can take her.
I will be back later tonight with the answers to my challenge questions. Thanks for listing and thanks for the great comments that you left yesterday!

Well as I said before I have fallen off the wagon, it ran me over then backed up and ran me over again. And do you know who is driving the wagon…….. the fat chick that lives inside my head, the chick that wants to eat and eat and eat until we can’t move, the one thats always wispering “you know you want the candy just eat it, who cares you like looking like this!” And as she was running me over fat chick stopped and waved and said to me ” see you later Fatty McFatty, I win today!” Well guess what fat chick get out of my head, because I’m not listening to you anymore. I’m back and I’m not going to let you win, you can’t make me eat that, I’m stronger then you are and just to prove to you fat Chickie that I mean business I’m going to answer my questions even though I didn’t do well!

I’ve set a new goal for myself this year, I want to be able to run ( at a competitive pace) a 5k by the end of December 2008.
Today is officially my first day back to a normal routine. This weekend was great I turned 24 on Saturday and had a wonderful day with my husband and an awesome birthday dinner with our families. I didn’t that great eating wise but I did track all of it. For some reason the only thing that I want to eat is candy but I made the husband hide in places that I can’t find. So I was reading another site and found some questions that I’m going to be answering daily to keep me on track to lose 4 pounds this month.

Thanks to Kristy for coming up these really great questions, I know that this will help me keep tracking in mind all day long.
and like I said yesterday I was up 2lbs. I knew it was coming, but you know what I had really good holiday season and 2lbs really isn’t that big of gain. This week its back to counting and writing everything down and all that jazz. If any of you have looked at goal page I wan’t to be 147.6 by January 1st….didn’t happen so I have to rethink my goals. Today has been very good so far eating and point wise, I post a journal today we’ll see.
Have a great day!:)
and I feel great, I can’t wait to start my year off right. I know that I gain weight over the holiday like 2 or 3lbs but it doesn’t matter because I’m back on track today. Since its the new year and a new me, I thought it was time to write the good old resolutions down for the world to see. This year all I really want is to become more active, not just going to the gym and working out. I want to enjoy being outside more and spending time with my hubby and the puppy riding bike and taking walks and all that. I don’t want to be to busy to enjoy life like I was last year, I really want to become an outdoor person. There are other things that I want to work on to like my self respect level, I need to stop being so hard on myself because I’m not at goal weight at-least I’m trying to do something about it. I want to buckle down and really start living this program instead of doing half hardily. I want to work on me and become a person that I like that has confidences in herself not matter what she is putting in her mouth or what size paints I’m wearing at the time.
On another note I did go to the mall with my mother-in-law and I had a great time. I think we really needed that time to get to one another a part from Austin. I think she needed to know that I’m not there to take her baby away and all that jazz. I think we’ll being more outings like that more often. I just wanted to share that with everyone who commented on my last post. I’m starting feel okay around her and more importantly I’m starting to feel okay in my own skin as I move closer to my goal of becoming a happier, healthier person!
Have a great everyone and thanks for all the support I really do need this!
