Dunkin Donuts... why?!!

13 points for a muffin.. really?!

well.. it was a delicious 13 point pumpkin muffin... and too late to take it back since it's in my tummy!

I had a little war with myself while driving to DD's. A muffin wasn't going to help me lose weight.. and that's really as far as I got.. then I was at dunkin doughnuts and buying it... My will power is not strong enough to say no to food yet.. Ofcourse I want to lose weight.. but sometimes i think Im just "interested" in loosing weight..not really committed.. Food is still coming before weight loss..

Anyways.. I had a perfectly good lunch.. a soup in hand and cheezits... then I went downtown to the bank and decided I wanted coffee... which led to the muffin.. I really wasn't hungry.. I don't understand myself sometimes.. I hope I can figure out how to stop sabotaging myself..

stop slidding back!

Just because I said I am re-starting my weigh-in date to Saturday.. does not give me the right to go all out and eat what i want... we know what that equals... WEIGHT GAIN!

WI this morning was 229.8

anyways.. not the best day today food-wise..

Not impressed.. but.. I did plan to eat my lunch I brought to work but was taken out to lunch w/the boss.. so what was I supposed to do. As for the eating Turkey.. well.. perhaps I am a Flexitarian.. eating meat when its the only option.. I will not, however, eat red meat ever again.

Wednesday WI

As expected (beause of TOM), I was up at WI. 230.8, up a pound. I've decided to change my WI/start of week to Saturday Morning.. that way.. I have my WP for the weekend and if I want to go back to meetings.. I can go to the Sat. AM meeting if I want.

Out to lunch again today.. but It was my choice.. and I chose Pizza Hut.. It was ok.. I felt pretty sick afterwards for a few hours.. so.. note to self.. Pizza Hut is not worth it!

Rockin' the VOTE!

What a historical day in the making! Who ever wins this presidential race will be bringing in 'a first' for the Presidency... Obama with being the first African American president.. and Mcain with being the oldest president AND with having a woman vice president. It's pretty exciting to be apart of history making!

Did'nt go out to lunch today.. so I had everything in control.. however.. its PMS time.. so I am retaining.. I know If I have a gain tomorrow morning that it's not the end of the world.. just that TOM.. and my next WI will be better.. I really need to work on not letting the scale be my sole interpreter of weight loss. I also really need to get into a gym. It's near impossible for me to lose weight just by eating right.. I know it works for some.. but because I've been a good exercizer in the past.. my body just needs that component to really get the weight moving..So I will check into a gym this weekend.

working in an office...

We get to go out for lunch.. and I was taken out to lunch again today.. I had brought my lunch.. soup,crackers,apple... but we all went out.. grrr

I made a better choice today.. a foccacia bread w/pesto, cheese and mixed veggies.. I'm gonna say it was 15 points...it was like the size of a personal pizza

I really need to bring my water bottle in.. I'm not drinking at all...

Surprise

actually 2

I woke up at 10 this morning only to realize after turning my computer on, that its was daylight savings time.. whoops!

Also.. I checked the scale this morning expecting a gain.. but it was actually a loss.. I'm at 229.0 even. So.. I guess my body is working for me. I'm going to head out for a walk today and stay within my daily points. That's why I love weight watchers.. You can go out and eat.. maybe not be so strict.. and you still do ok.

 *edit*
So I just ate a TON of halloween candy.. but now it's all gone.. I feel sick..and do not want candy ever again..

Weekends are always tough because I'm not on a set schedule.. I'm thinking of switching my WI day to Saturday morning.. then I have the extra points for the weekend if I need them..and then during the week I am usually ok.. We will see

November already?!

Well.. after yesterdays crazy binge.. WI this AM was'nt bad.. only 230.2.. althought I'm sure with yesterday and todays bad eating.. it will be up tomorrow.

I hung out with my friend eva today.. we walked around the mall then went to get Thai for lunch.. I had veggie massaman curry over rice.. and 2 small spring rolls (fried). She also gave me a mixed bag of halloween candy.. ugh.. I need to put them where i wont see them... Ive already had 5 mini candys..

It's gorgeous today but cold.. really not motivated to go walk.. so I'll just go first thing tomorrow morning. Sometimes I wonder if joining a gym will motivate me more.. since I'm paying for it.. I think it has in the past... I'm just waiting to get my next pay check before I spend any more money.
