Today I was feeling so full after work that I wanted to throw up which I know is gross but that's how I felt. I only got in 2 AP's today because of that but at least it's something. At lunch there were leftover Cinco De Mayo treats and there was this chocolate brownie dish with lots of chocolate icing (the kind you get on store-bought cupcakes) on top from Wal Mart and it was just amazing. Heaven. I had TWO big slices and OMG I have no idea how many points that's worth.
Tomorrow I plan to get in 4 more AP's. I think I will be weighing in officially on Monday with my mom so I am really trying to get my butt in gear. It's funny how thinking about WI makes me that much more motivated. Maybe I should go back to Weight Watchers every single Monday just to hold myself accountable? It's something to think about because I tend to slack off when I know I'm not going to WI the following week.
Hope everyone has a good weekend! It's Friday!!!

WI
I would go every week if you could Leanne. I know that WI keeps me real accountable. If I didn't have to go weigh in every night I would give into temptation. We have quite a few lifetime members that come to almost every meeting. It's really inspiring. I'm sure you could inspire others!
I miss weighing in. I mean, I weighed in weekly when I wasnt in and that kept me more on track and where I needed to be. If you cant weigh in with WW, then keep a log for yourslf and weigh in on the same scale, every week. You are still doing great!
I'm not on WW but the weigh in thing sounds like a good idea to keep you on track. Sometimes it can be easy to slack off when you don't have someone checking up on you.
I know that feeling of overeating and you feel so bloated from it. I try not to overstuffed myself when I eat. Sometimes it's hard not to when the food is really good!
Thanks for letting me know that the elliptical machine is a great way to burn all of those fats! I love it!
Hi, thanks for your response to my post. My boyfriend wasn't being unsupportive, he was amazing the first time I lost weight and since we had the talk he;s been great. He just doesn't want to have to worry about if it's a fad, but I've shown him how great I can be and how healthy I've been and the next day he saw how serious I was and has been great ever since. I don't blame him for feeling like that, I've told him so many times and he's just ended up getting upset cos I end up biting his head off! Well done for your AP's.. I need to do more exercise, haven't been cycling for daaays!! Turrah.. I'm off x x x
I am new to EP and I am so motivated by your story. Do you mean I at 195 could go down too 115 lbs? or even 120? I am not sure I can do it, good for you!
I do agree with the slacking off, now that we have our heads in gear for maintanence I agree that weekly weigh in's are crucial. I usually weigh in everyday but once a week on Wenesday I still hold myself accountable as the offical weigh in for the week. I do agree it makes you more accountable for your eating and it makes you stay on track. I hope you have an awesome week ahead!
hey leanne - thanks for the support... had to laugh when i read your last blog b/c it sounds like we're going through the same things (even though I'm not officially on maintenance yet)! i definitely think that the weekly weigh ins keep me more accountable and hence i continue going in even though i dont really buy food anymore or talk much with my consultant.
hope your weekend shaped up to be a good one. ...and on the plus side, at least you didn't waste your calories on a brownie that didn't taste good!
It's terrible, but I haven't gone back to WW because I'm already lifetime and have to be within the 2 pound goal of 140 to go free! Isn't that just horribly cheap of me!
I should get my butt there anyway - heck with the money - if I'm eating better I will be saving money on junk food anyway - right? Haahahaha
That's it!!! Stick with it. You're doing great with the AP's!!!
