I actually have Points left over. Yep. I’ve only had 25 of my 28 Points today, so I get to have a legal snack tonight. Haven’t decided what it’ll be yet, but I’m leaning toward a quesadilla. That tends to be my go-to snack.
This is after I had a HUGE dinner. OK, dinner wasn’t all […]

Thanks for the encouraging comments on my last post. You were right: The week wasn’t a total loss!
Yep. I actually posted a loss … down 1 pound from last Monday’s weigh-in. (And since I did the evening weigh-in instead of my usual noon one, and I’d just taken a 40-minute walk, I may actually have […]

I’d been having such a good week … but blew it today.
Exercise-wise, things were good. I did a Zumba class and took the dogs on a 40-minute walk. But food was a different story.
Breakfast and lunch were OK. I had an egg and a tablespoon of LF cream cheese on half a light English muffin […]

I think I’ve made a discovery: Eating a little of a really good food is better than eating a lot of junk.
Sounds simple, doesn’t it? But I tend to “treat” myself with larger quantities of fast food. Not today. This time, I went to a gourmet pizza place and ordered the lunch combo: a slice […]

That makes two in a row!
The best part of today was the workout. I went to another “boot camp express” class at the gym. 45 minutes of rebounding, jumping rope, kick boxing and jumping jacks was hard (I slowed down a couple of times to the standard “step-touch” move) but afterward, I felt great. […]

I actually needed a snack when I got home from work tonight. Usually I want a little something to eat but don’t need it because I’ve already had all my Points for the day.
Today, I slept through my alarm (’til 11 a.m., actually) and didn’t really eat breakfast (had half a 1-Point bagel and 1 […]

Come Thanksgiving time, I’m going to be an aunt … and I want to be a healthy one!
I’ve read a lot of blogs that say “I got healthy for my kids.” Since I don’t have any, I’ll use my brother’s impending arrival as an extra push to reach that weight-loss goal. I have about 57 […]

Sorry this is a little late. I was at the Boyfriend’s last night and didn’t have access to my computer. Then again, I wasn’t all that excited to post about weigh-in anyway.
That’s right, the scale didn’t budge … not even one measly tenth of a pound. With the Friday night I had, I suppose I […]

The rest of my Sunday was fine … maybe even better than fine. We finished the paper early, and I didn’t let my food choices get out of control. My dinner was a total of 9 Points, with 2 Points invested in after-dinner snacking … for a total of 32 Points. If I subtract […]

After spending nearly 2 hours at softball practice, I was starving. And after spending 2 hours at softball practice, I figured I could treat myself to a cookie while I was picking up my Subway sub and baked chip lunch.
Little did I know that, at low intensity, nearly 2 hours of softball practice only racked […]
