Rough Month

I haven't blogged this month because I have been having some health issues. I was having terrible chest pains for the first half of the month. Everything is getting better now. I have continued on my diet. I have cheated numerous time! Girl scout cookies, pizza, ect. Its crazy now because when I eat that stuff, I can't eat as much as I could before and it makes me feel sick to my stomach. I've had a stomach bug now since Sunday and I am hoping this is the last day of it! I feel sick to my stomach at all times and have only really held down water. I am down 2.4 lbs since my last weigh in. This weight loss is much much slower than I thought it would be. I'm going on 2 months now and I've lost almost 10lbs. I have started exercising 3 times a week and I'm hoping that will shed more pounds per week.

4th Weigh In

So I gained 1.3 lbs this week. I did read online that sometimes if ww isn't working you have to start eating more points. Like I get 42 points for the week plus 49 extra weekly points. I am mostly staying under 42 points.. After some reading on message boards, this may be sabotaging my weight loss. I need to use all of my points and maybe even some of my extra points and see if that helps. I have been eating protein for breakfast and protein for evening snack. I may not be getting all my fruits and veggies that I am supposed to have. I'm going to increase my daily points intake and up my fruits and veggies. So we'll see what happens for next weight in. I will be honest, I am getting discouraged. It cost more money for me to buy the foods that I am buying and eat as much as I am already. So for it not to be paying off is frustrating. I am under huge stress and have not been sleeping at night well. I know this can contribute to no weight loss also. How do I fix that? I can't make my job stress home stress go away! I am going to start my period this week, (sorry TMI!) so maybe I'm a little bloated? I think I may start a food journal also. I am not writing down what I'm eating and its ww point value. But I do plan out my day and know how many points I'm using for that day ahead of time. Ok... starting another week.

3rd Weigh in

I did not lose anything this week!!! I actually gained .1 lbs! I'm a bit annoyed but I will not let it defeat me! New week to make new food choices so see ya'll next week!

Sulking...

So I seem to be at a stand still already! I just weighed myself and I've gained 2lbs. I have been watching my portions and eating 6 times a day. I'm eating alot of fruits and veggies and fish. My snacks are hundred calorie snacks and weight watchers ice cream. I am staying within my points each day so I'm not sure what the problem is. My official weigh in is on Sunday but... things aren't looking so good right now. I am going to do Zumba a couple days before the weigh in and maybe I need to cut out my hundred calorie snacks and just eat fruit. ***Sigh*** just feeling a bit defeated already. I was expecting a decent loss this week.

2nd Weigh in

I lost 1lb only this week.. I'm ok with it. I am going to make some changes to my food choices this week and see if that makes a difference for next weigh in.  AT least I didn't gain!

Pissed

I know I should have waited but I got on the scale today to see if I had lost anything and I've GAINED 1 pound!!! WTF??? I have eaten pasta twice for dinner this week and maybe I haven't eaten as much veggies as the first week. I also was eating protein for breakfast last week and this week I ate cereal... I need to switch it up fast! I still have a couple days before weigh in.. I'm going to do my Zumba dvd's the next few days and see if that helps at all! I want to be down at least 1 pound by weigh in! I'm so mad right now!

First Weigh In

Soooo... I lost 8lbs this week!!! Wooohhooo!!! On to week 2!

Nervous!!!

Tomorrow is my first weigh in and I'm scuuuurrrrred! Aunt Flo came for a visit this week and I don't know if that will affect my weigh in. **Sigh** I have done really well this week with my eating. I stayed under my Weight Watchers points everyday. One day I was able to have a slice of pizza and a sprite for lunch and Friday I had a small hot chocolate from Dunkin Donuts. I was still within my points for the day on those days! I will be honest I feel like if I don't lose at least 4 or 5 pounds, I will secretly be discouraged. I do have daily support from a very good friend/co-worker and she is doing Weight Watchers also. I need to be ok with any loss. Any loss is a victory! At least it isn't a gain! I will post again, tomorrow hopefully, with my weigh in results!
