Fridays are usually my ‘at home’ weigh in day (I don’t go to WW meetings). Since hitting my goal weight a few weeks ago I’ve gone up and down by 2 or 3 pounds. This week I’m happy to say I’m a pound less than last week :-) But the weekend as usual is really hard for me. I just never want to track points, and I think I will just start accepting that. I mean, I don’t really need to lose any more weight at this point, I just need to maintain and get in to a good exercise routine, so splurging on the weekend (not going crazy but eating the things I like in moderation) is something I should allow myself to do.
So, if I want to have a glass of wine or two with my girlfriend on a Friday night and nibble on yummy cheese and crackers, then I should be able to do so, without always worrying about not tracking the points – I just don’t know how I can track points without standing there measuring out a 1oz piece of cheese or counting out crackers?!! It’s ok doing that during the week, but I really don’t want to do that in front of people, they will just think I’m weird, or obsessed with food and weight!
Food in the past few days consisted of . . . .
Lunch on Wednesday, half a baked potato with 1 cup of tuna (not a cup size but the little cups it comes in!) and a side of leftover mixed veggie. I added a tablespoon of light mayo to the veg! Total 6pp.
Breakfast on Thursday, 1 ‘alternative’ blueberry bagel. I found these in Walmart! The nice thing is they aren’t ‘skinny’ bagels, it’s as thick and dense as a normal bagel, a little smaller and only 3pp each. Topped with a tblsp of whipped cream cheese and some bananas and grapes on the side. Just 4pp.
Lunch was turkey and bacon/salad sandwich on light bread. 10 popchips and a pickle. Total 5pp.
Later in the afternoon I made another latte :-) Bought the fat free caramel sauce to drizzle on top too – I’m liking these a lot.
I went out on Thursday night to Book Club so didn’t eat dinner but had some wine and nibbles at the meeting!
