I weighed in at 208.4, that’s a .6 gain for the week. I’m pretty frustrated. The scale showed a loss all week until it jumped up on Tuesday morning. This morning I lost a little bit compared to yesterday, but not enough! I have been hovering around the same weight for months now. But I did lose 1.6 lbs. this month, so I guess that’s some progress. I don’t know if you could call this a plateau or not, but it sure feels like it. I’m giving it my all and still not getting anywhere scale wise. I know I am making leaps and bounds in the way my clothes fit and my fitness level. Plus, hubby is always commenting on how small I’m getting—so it has to be showing! Maybe I shouldn’t start freaking out until I weigh tomorrow and see where I’m at.
For breakfast this morning I had Muesli, a banana and a glass of milk.
This was my first time eating Muesli and it was pretty good! I think I’ll try it cold next time. It has a great ingredient list:
I have no idea how to pronounce Muesli, but that’s ok.
I was running short on time this morning, so I skipped my usual iced latte but made sure to drink up on water to get hydrated. I have to say I am really good at drinking lots of water. At least 9 cups of pure water a day.
On my first break, I ate an AE Dairy Blueberry Greek Yogurt for 5 points.
For lunch, I had my new favorite food. Coconut shrimp—SO So So good!! I also had green beans. Total of 5 points.
I finished up with a peach for 0 points.
But had a chocolate craving so had 2 pieces of dark chocolate for 2 points.
I was hungry by about 4:00, so I had 1 oz. of sharp cheddar for 3 points. I am getting really good at estimating 1 oz. of cheese. Almost every time, what I cut off of the block is exactly 1 oz. Go me for learning to eyeball serving sizes!
I also had some of this:
1 serving for 3 points.
This stuff is very good! I have a bag of Almond too, which I can’t wait to try.
Hubby came home and suggested we go to Subway for supper because I was still working when he got home and hadn’t had a chance to get supper together. I ordered a turkey and ham sub with avocado- which they are offering for a limited time. I also had baked BBQ Lay’s for a total of 14 points.
Tonight, I finally splurged on something I have been craving for weeks. A brownie with chocolate frosting. YUM. It was SO good and satisfied that craving- FINALLY! This was 11 points. And it was worth the points, believe it or not! This was from Casey’s General Store. Anyone in Iowa knows just how delicious their pizza and baked goods are at this gas station. Unbelievable. They also list their nutrition information online which is awesome. Way to go Casey’s!
I was reading on WW online that many WW leaders say to switch your points up from day to day. Some days, eat more weekly points, others stay within your daily points. So today will be the day I ate the weekly points. 
How do you feel about satisfying a craving every once in a while? I typically stay away from foods like 11 point brownies—hence I’ve been craving one for weeks and haven’t eaten one. Do you allow yourself to indulge? How often? Do you feel guilty? Truth be told, I don’t feel guilty for eating this brownie, the only thing that makes me feel guilty is thinking about the person who will read my blog once (happening to be on a day where I eat like I did today) and tell me I don’t know how to eat right.
I was just curious to see if my weight this morning was wacky, so I weighed this afternoon, after drinking 9 cups of water and eating 2 meals and I only weighed .2 more than this morning. I’m pretty sure I’ll have a loss tomorrow. Stupid scale.
