Loser!

And I don't mean weight either. I've been goofing off! Up until this weekend I was faithfully recording everything that went in my mouth. But somehow I got all caught up in kids, cleaning, and something else that I just never sat down to log my points on the weight watchers website. Which isn't like me because I have been so good. And I have had plenty of time at the computer too. This past week I was introduced to "Second LIfe" - an internet role playing simulation game. (I know - most of you… Continue

The good the bad and Chinese food

Been a great week - and most of weekend - I ve stayed op and actually had fun planning meals and grocery shopping. Then came Sunday afternoon - my 18 yr old daughter, who we don't see to much of anymore because of boyfriends and job, wanted to go out to eat as family. I think she's getting nervous about graduation and thoughts of moving on with her life, going to college etc. So everyone, me included, wanted to eat at our favorite Chinese restaurant. I had planned on just having some beef and b… Continue

Weekend check in

Well - my week has been going fine so far. Staying on track, eating more veggies. But now its Saturday and I'm beginning to panic becasue there isn't any healthy food in the house right now. I just ate a peanutbutter and jelly sandwhich - not proud of that - but I'm still well within my points for the day - with plenty for dinner and lots of flex points too. I need to make a grocery list and plan out the next few days so I don't freak out and pig out. I have learned a few tricks to get me throu… Continue

Week 1 - down 1.5 lbs

This was a successful week for me in so many ways. I journaled absolutely every single thing that I consumed. I documented my activity points. I tried to drink as much water as possible. And I have begun walking daily. I made it through on entire week without eating restaurant food. And - I am down 1.5 lbs. That might not seem like as much as I would've liked - but it was a loss - and that feels good. Blogging has really kept me on track. I am so inspired by other's thoughts and actions that… Continue

My 2-Point Italian Quesadilla is:

1 low-carb (1-Point) tortilla
1 T reduced-fat cream cheese (I've been using the chive flavor)
Tomato paste (I just use a knife-full, because it should have 0 Points)
I just spread the cream cheese and tomato paste on the tortilla, fold it in half and heat it through on the George Foreman grill for 3 or 4 minutes.

Thanks MelissaLynn...thanks for the encouraging words...I'm ready to do this...I just ordered 2 weight watcher point tracker journals...cause I cant make it to the meetings right now with my crazy schedule...but I am a freak about writing everything down...so I hope just being aware of what is going into my mouth will make a difference. Thanks again for the comment and I hope that you have a great day!

I feel the same way when I look in the mirror, even 50 lbs lighter, I hate the image standing in front of me.
