Tomorrow is weigh in day! I haven’t worked out as many days this week as I would have liked, but more than the week before, and I even conquered 30 minutes of Les Mills Combat last night (very, very sweaty!) I am hopeful for a good weigh in this weekend.
I’ve been logging my food on the Weight Watchers app, and I definitely have to make some adjustments. I’ve already mentioned that soda uses a LOT of points, so I need to cut way back on that, which will be a good thing. But some things I eat a lot of, like my meal bars for breakfast, surprised me by being so many points. I need to find a new, quick, no-cook, take-to-work breakfast.
I surprised myself by eating more grapes, carrots, watermelon, blackberries (with Cool Whip, oh yeah!) this past week. I never eat fruit or vegetables, but since they are zero points, I’ve already learned to pack those with my lunch or gnaw on them for snacks so I don’t rack up points.
All in all, I’m really glad I joined. I’m still surprised that there aren’t more support features on the Weight Watchers app, like message boards or groups or challenges, but my weekly group is great. Seeing them get rewards and applause for 5 pounds lost, or 50, is motivating because I want to be in that position someday, being recognized for my hard work and weight loss.
Thank you to everyone who is now following me on the app! I have returned the favor and am following you too. I don’t post much on there yet, but hopefully soon I will have milestones and weight loss and victories to brag about 🙂
