Good end to the day
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 2 of my 5 APs, that brings my day’s total down to 30.
And that would mean that I’ve used just 2 FPs for the day. (Of course, if I factor in the fact that I probably used up a week’s worth of FPs on Friday night, that’s not so great … but I’ll ignore that fact and hope to still see a loss on the scale at tomorrow’s weigh-in.)
I’m still hopeful that it’ll be a good weigh-in. After all, I’ve had worse weeks (less exercise and more bad food choices) and still posted a loss.
Keep your fingers crossed!
P.S.: While I was at the gym Saturday, hanging out at the smoothie bar after Zumba class, the guy making the smoothies said he was one of the PT students who took our measurements at the start of the Lose to Win program and again just a week or so ago … and he said he remembered that I’d dropped my body fat percentage! He couldn’t remember how much, though … and they’re not going to tell us our results until the end of the program in another two weeks.
I’m thinking it had to be a pretty spectacular drop for him to remember … but the scale hasn’t budged all that much, so who knows? And after my earlier post today, we all know what I get for thinking!
I’ll keep you posted when I find out those changes.
Almost forgot: AAC — 7/3. (I definitely aimed too low!)
Hey There…Sounds like you have been on a very similar journey as me…and thank you for your great comment the other day. I have been having a very difficult time committing to the WW plan. Every day I start out saying this is going to be a great day, but I let other people (the husband mostly) get in my way. I know ultimately I am the one putting the food in my mouth, but he really does make it difficult on me to be “good”. How do you deal with this when your boyfriend tempts you?
Not very well, unfortunately. A lot of the time, I’ll give in and eat whatever he’s trying to get me to. Last night, fresh from a WW meeting, I managed to just say “no.” He brought out a container of that yoplait whipped chocolate mousse yogurt, which I love … but I calculated its Points value (4) and decided it wasn’t worth it. Ate a 2-point chocolate delight bar instead. I know, in the scheme of things, yogurt is a much better snack than the ice cream he foisted on me last week, but I decided I didn’t need it and substituted something else with fewer Points.
Ideally, that’s what I’d like to do every time … but so often it’s easier to give in.
