The first day was a success! I ended my day right at my Points Plus target. Yippee!
Something feels different this time. I feel more mentally/emotionally ready this time. In the back of my head I am thinking, “I shouldn’t even be saying that…what if I screw up again? That would be embarrassing”, but I am trying not to think that way. This is the time!
I forgot how wonderful it is to be able to eat fruits and veggies without having to count points/calories for them. I had a moment in the late afternoon where I was really hungry but didn’t want to use any points and—”aha—I can have a peach for free!”
I also had fun cooking supper last night. I made creamy chicken enchiladas—2 for 12 Points+. I started selling Wildtree products (more on that later), and I had fun experimenting with the various spice blends. It gave my stand-by creamy enchiladas an all new taste for no extra calories! I want to experiment with some of the blends, etc. and then I will share recipes.
One thing that should help me out is that I move more now that I am not working a full time desk job. Plus, with the baby, I am moving around more often. It was interesting to see the difference when I was wearing my Body Media.
My WI days will be on Fridays—so I will have my first WI this Friday so it won’t be a full week. But that’s ok!
Has anyone else noticed how fall seems to be on the verge of making its appearance? The sky has been a crisp blue. The fields are starting to turn golden. Yellow wild flowers are blooming in the ditches. It just FEELS like fall, even though it’s a tad bit hot out there yet. Fall is coming—YAY! My favorite season of the year.
So, that’s about it! Just wanted to check in and let you know that I did great on my first day back! How are you doing with your plan?
