Sweets Cravings

This morning I weighed in at 207.8, which is a .4 gain this week. I can’t be mad at myself or beat myself up, because I can say with confidence that I followed the plan. I tracked my points, I exercised for 5 hours and 19 minutes. I earned 32 AP’s. I did use all of my weekly points and used 6 AP’s. But with all of that exercise- I would think I would be ok. So I am proud of my week. I am going to give it my all this week again, knowing that I am taking better care of my body and that I am getting healthier—even if the scale doesn’t want to show me any love. Plus, come on, .4 lbs.—that could be anything.

I slept in this morning instead of getting up with hubby at 5 AM. It was raining and perfect sleeping weather. I felt much more refreshed this morning after a good night’s sleep.

It’s easier for me to eat breakfast when it’s not so early in the morning. Today, I ate a Bagel thin egg sandwich—a little different than my recipe because I had to use what I had in the house. I also had a glass of milk and 1/2 cup of strawberries for 10 points total.

Before signing in to work, I made my iced latte for 1 point.

Later on in the morning, I had a Fiber One bar for 4 points.

For lunch, I had a baked potato topped with broccoli and sharp cheddar cheese for 6 points.

And for a little something sweet, I had banana soft serve with a VitaBrownie for 3 points.

We’ve been trying to use up food that’s in the house before getting groceries—so I’m finding lots of things in the freezer.

On my last break, I ate 2 Cuties clementines for 0 points.

I ended up working a couple of hours overtime tonight. I’d rather get off early on Friday- but we’ll see!

For supper, I had stuffed pasta with spaghetti sauce, garlic toast, and green beans for 9 points.

I have been craving ice cream for the past few days and didn’t want to eat it before weigh in—so I had some today for 6 points, including a little caramel syrup.

I have been craving sweets like crazy lately. Not sure why. Later on in the evening I had a Reese’s PB cup for 6 points.

Yeh, probably wasn’t worth 6 points- but it was good. I also had a banana later- but I didn’t get a picture.

I have been feeling like I want to eat all of the time lately—sometimes I’m hungry, other times I know that I’m not really hungry, just probably trying to fill an emotional void that I can’t quite put my finger on. Why can’t I just be a normal person? lol

So I’m ending out the day using 11 weekly points today—a little excessive, but it won’t happen everyday!
