Finally!
I put off blogging once again because I was so dissapointed. Last week I only lost 0.8lbs. I was a little bit discouraged. This week though I was very surprised. I lost 4.8lbs. That brings my total loss to 11.6lbs. Not bad for one month, I have to say! I have lost almost 5% of my total body weight. I am much happier tonight!

Disappointed!
I am a little behind. I was trying to procrastinate for as long as I could. I only lost 0.4 lbs last week. I was very sad. I knew I had lost less but didnt know it was less than a pound. My total weight loss so far is 6 pounds which isnt too bad for 2 weeks. Hopefully I have lost more this week. I will find out in 2 days.....SCARY!!! Time is going by so fast. I havent been as good at working out the last few days. I have had a bit of a cold and just havent felt like it but I know that I need to get going again. I feel SOOO much better when I do.

Oh well...
I can pretty much gaurantee that I havent lost as much weight this week. But thats OK! I started working out with the exception of yesterday but I plan to work out extra today to make up for it. I have started eating much healthier except the fries I have ate a couple of times. I still stayed within my points though! I have been getting in all of my fruits and vegetables. I eat only low calorie, fat free wheat bread. I switched to spray "butter". I eat turkey on my sanwiches rather than ham and I quit putting miracle whip on them. I switched to diet Pepsi. I wish I could quit drinking soda all together but as long as I go to school and work nights I need my Pepsi! I have had way less heart burn/acid reflux!!! Yay!! Working out feels great. I am very out of shape so I cant do much to start out with but I am able to do more than I thought I would have done. I have been using the Gazelle at my moms house when I go over. It hurts my feet a little but its a great little piece of equipment. I know I should go over to the club house and jump on the treadmill but I am still a little nervous! I dont have an Ipod or anything to listen to. Thats just boring! I think I may go buy one tomorow though! They are $150 for an 8 GB at Target right now. Thats not to badof a price. I know I would never regret buying one, its just getting up the nerve to spend that much money at once.

Lessons learned....
I know that I said I wouldnt blog again until tomorow but I thought I'd type a few things while I wait for Jaydens bus to get here. In the last couple of days I have learned a few things. #1. Apples taste really good. Its not like I never ate apples before but I forgot how sweet they can taste. #2.Teriyaki sauce must have some sugar in it. I have never ate many teriyaki flavored foods because I didn't think I really liked the taste. It is low in points though so I thought I would try it on some chicken. After tasting just a bite I realized it was nasty and mixed the rest of my sauce with a little bit of brown sugar and it was tasty! #3. Low fat sour cream tastes pretty good! #4. I can still eat everything I love while on Weight Watchers and be satisfied.
#5. I need to eat small amounts often if I want to prevent myself from starving. I have been eating snacks like string cheese, 15 garden vegetable wheat thins, 100 calorie snacks(many kinds), and granola bars. Each of these are 2 points. I can have 30 points every day. Any vegetables that are green are 0 points. I love celery!!! I have 35 points I can eat each week for special occasions. I am kind of pretending these points dont exist but at some point I may use them like on Birthdays, or family dinner once a month, bunko, or whatever. I will try to save points up throughout the day by eating lots of 0 and low point items. Such as Progresso soups that have 1 or 0 points. I really hope that tomorow I have lost a couple of pounds or at least 1 pound. I have been doing pretty good although, I have yet to start working out but now finals are over with I will have lots of time to get started.
