Ok kids… I’m getting fed up with this.  I’m at 172.4 this morning…. and I haven’t used all my flex points for this week.  I am so fed up with eating what I think is well and not losing much!  This is the end of almost 2 MONTHS on Weight Watchers with only 4 pounds gone to show for it…. that is NOT okay!  What is wrong with me?!  My eating habits have drastically changed and I have nothing to show for it!  I mean, yeah… I’m eating healthier foods and smaller portions, I’m drinking water, I’m moving as much as my 16-hour work days allow me to, and I’m still stressed which means cortisol which means a barrier to weight loss… but STILL! COME ON, SCALE!  BUDGE A LITTLE!  I read about the Wendie Plan this week of varying your points each day to use up the Flex Points in a way that is “even” throughout the week, allowing for one “Splurge Day” and I think this is a good idea.  Biggest Loser does this, allowing their contestants to eat a splurge meal (and they lose way too much each week!) after weigh-in… so maybe I’ll try that this coming week.  I’d like to start on Tuesday I think in order to make my Splurge Day be on Saturday, which is always the biggest eating day for me.  Anyone tried this?  Anyone in the same boat as me: eating well, using points wisely, and STILL not losing after a full 7+ weeks!?  Is something wrong with me?  I feel fine, my thyroid is just fine, etc.  UGHGHLKJGKLJGH
