When you don’t lose one day… try the next!

Is anyone else having a really hard time getting back into a schedule this week? Wow—it has been tough! I am ready for the weekend!

For breakfast this morning, I had cheerios, milk and strawberries for 4 points.

I had to make myself Shred this morning. Did not want to in the least bit. I struggled through the whole thing. I burned 152 calories, but Day 28 is complete.

I was frustrated stepping on the scale to see that I lost a little over a lb., but I was hoping to get all of the weight that I gained off. Why is it that I can bust my butt for a month to lose 4 lbs. and I can gain it back and then some if I so much as glance at a cookie? Ok, so if I may not eat perfectly for one day. Why is that? It’s really frustrating. Hubby has been trying to encourage me and tell me that we just need to step it up like I had been doing before the 4th of July and once I get back into my groove, everything will be just fine. I’m sure that being super tired and worn out probably affects the body too. So maybe a restful weekend will help.

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

For my first break, I ate a piece of toast with an egg for 3 points.

Lunch was a salad made with lettuce, chicken, salsa, 0% Fage, cheese, and tortilla chips for 5 points.

And I finished It up with a No Pudge! brownie for 3 points.

I always weigh myself in the afternoon when I have to weigh in at my WW meeting. I weighed 207 at 2:30 and at 4:30 I weighed 205—lol how does that happen!? But it made me happy!

So I headed to my meeting and I was even happier when I had a .6 loss for the week! That means that my weight must have really dropped today from over the holiday. Yay!! So I guess if you don’t lose weight one day, try again the next day! It was another good meeting, but I was hoping to get a 5K charm for the 5k I ran on the 4th of July—are you supposed to just mention that you ran a 5k when you weigh in? Last week, they asked if anyone had done a 5k during the meeting.

Hubby had supper ready for me when I got home. We had Papa Murphy’s Herb Chicken Mediterranean pizza. I had 2 slices for 10 points.

For dessert, I had a turtle sundae for 7 points.

That puts me right at my points target for the day!

I also ate a banana, probably didn’t need it but I felt like eating an entire tub of ice cream and eating the banana kept me from doing that.

Thankfully, tomorrow is FRIDAY!!! I cannot wait for the weekend!
