Before After

One week later...

So, tomorrow is weigh-in and will bring my days OP 10:10.  That in itself is an accomplishment given my recent history.  In the past, to drop pounds fast I would cut my points to 10-12 a day.  Now, logically I knew that wasn't something I could follow long term, but it usually gave me a big drop in pounds... enough to keep me motivated to keep going.

This time I've been eating my daily points and (last week) most of my Flex points.  I finished the week with 5.5.  It would have been 21 had it not been for my run in with the box of Red Vines (15.5 points!!!).  This week I've been having a few Flex a day so tomorrow will be a bit of a litmus test.  If I have any loss at all I think I will continue on as I have been, with the addition of earning some APs - but not necessarily eating them.  If there is no drop, or the dreaded gain, I will tighten the proverbial belt.  After all, I have a goal to reach!

Until tomorrow...

YES!

You are doing a fantastic job! I can't wait to hear about your awesome weigh-in! It has to be good! Today was my Day 1 - for the billionth time! But it was successful, and that's all I care about right now. I don't know if I'm going to keep going to meetings or not but I know I will stick to this program. It's amazing just how good I feel after one little day! It's hard to find the right mix of FPs & APs to eat. I usually eat every single POINT I can scrounge up! Have a GREAT weigh-in!

Those Red Vines

Don'tcha just hate it when those boxes attack you like that - outa nowhere they come at you and make you eat, eat, eat!  I have the same problem - think we can call a Red Vine exterminator or something?
