While I am still officially doing Weight Watchers I haven’t logged my points or for that matter logged on at all for a couple of weeks. I eat the same thing everyday (except for dinner) so I know I’m within my allotted points*. Plus I’m still losing weight so I’m not worried. I am however finding myself thinking eh, I’m over it. I am 1.5 pounds away from my original goal of 12 pounds and all of my clothes fit, I feel good, and minus the twin skin I’m overall happy. Now if only I could get my booty to the gym and get some muscle!!!!!
Weight Watchers Week 6 Weight Loss: 1.5 pounds
Total Lost: 10.5 pounds
*For those curious I drink my cup of coffee with Sugar Free Vanilla Creamer. I eat a Dannon Light and Fit Vanilla Yogurt with 1/8 cup of Back to Nature Apple Strawberry Granola for breakfast. For lunch I eat a frozen Weight Watcher Pasta Primavera which I add 1/2 cup of raw carrots. Snack is espresso with Sugar Free Chocolate Sauce and Fat Free milk with a Weight Watchers 1 point Zinger like thingy (the Chocolate and Lemon ones are really good). Dinner I eat whatever I cook and I don’t limit my portion. Weekends are harder because Jeff is home and we get take out. So far I’ve been sensible, but it is getting harder and harder. I want some 50 points Olive Garden and breadsticks!!!! So I think my Weight Watchers stint is coming to an end. Now it is all about maintaining the 12 pounds I lost and getting fit. Wish me luck!!!

I’m in the same place… at a good weight but needing to tone up more to be bikini ready. I was feeling on top of the world until I went swimsuit shopping last weekend
PS. I’m reading Jodi Picoult’s Mercy. Not a good book to read right off a family vacay to the beach when I’m all sappy about Jon. It’s about a guy who mercy kills his sick wife. For the first time in my life, I am considering googling the ending because I can’t help but worry about life without Jon while reading it.

12 lbs. is great. I have been thinking of weight watchers. But I am horrilbe with sticking to something.
How is the YMCA? I never joined.

I got down to 5 pounds below pre-pregnancy by 4 weeks after I had them. Then I slowly blew up. I am dangerously close to my 36 week pregnant weight now and have been for months. It’s so depressing especially when I really don’t eat that badly (way better than I ever have) and I’m more active than I’ve ever been in life. What more can I do??
I have some ww books that a friend gave me. I should see how many points I’m eating.
Congrats on your weight loss and sticking to it.

Congratulations!! Your such a good dieter, me not so much. I totally understand you wanting to take a break from it. Exercise is just the only thing that works for me but I LOVE to exercise mainly doing group classes…they are so so much fun. Try them I bet you will have fun and let me tell you that hour goes by so much quicker then doing the treadmill or whatever kind of cardio trainer you would use. If you can make it on a Monday night about 6:30 the Cheyenne/Rainbow club has kick boxing and an abdominal class that I could get you into without membership, just let me know. I also took a look at all the past blogs, haven’t been on in awhile. Love all the pictures and hearing how the twins are doing. They are both so adorable when they are giving affection, it does melt your heart when they do that all on their own. Just wait soon they will say “I love you mommy”

I’m fighting the funk, too. I went back on Weight Watchers last month and was doing really good until my kids and I went out of town Easter weekend. Since then I haven’t been able to get back on it like I need to be. But I’ve got to get back into my routine of keeping my food journal again. I know that will help me a lot.

You look fabulous! That does not seem like enough food so I can see why you are in a funk :)! Take a break and see where it takes you…you have done a great job!

Congrats, that’s awesome! I am impressed that you can eat the same thing every day
(until dinner) because I thrive on the variety, but that’s probably what gets me
in trouble.

You look awesome!!!!! Congrats. As long as you feel good about yourself … that’s all that matters.
