My "Abso-freaking-lutely Amazing" Breakfast:
Doesnt it look "yummy to your tummy"? I takes me all morning to finish it but it also stops me from overeating or snacking in between meals. I swear breakfast has become my favorite meal (actually that's a lie hehehhe, every meal has become my favorite)!
Part of my lunch ;-)
Green Beans are the best!! (I got these at Trader Joes, they come in a bag (big portion, this is leftovers from dinner last night) that you throw in the microwave for 5 min - all I can say is they are FANTASTICAL and Drew loves them - Sweet!!!)
So it's been one week since I've started weight watchers and I've lost 2.8 pounds - which to me is AMAZING!!! (especially since the boyfriend surprised me with a night out on friday (I'm a lucky girl), didnt eat too horrible but still the meal was def not in my points range but that's okay - date night was wonderful and much needed). I've tracked every day, anything that goes in my mouth goes on my tracker (amazing how much it helps you stop from putting bad stuff in your mouth) and haven't had one soda!! Woot Woot!! Not sure if I had mentined it before but I've given up on soda, can you believe it? I'm a icetea/water kind of girl now LOL! For some reason this time around with Weight Watchers seems stress-free easy going loving every minute of it, am I making sense? Is it because I have a goal set? Is it because of my thyroid? Whatever it is, I'm not complaining - Bring it on!!!
"Discipline is what you really
want."
What works for me is figuring out my points every night for the next day (that includes breakfast, lunch and dinner) so I'm prepared and now what will be going in my mouth.
Every Thursday night is Double Date (sometimes Triple Date) Chuck Night where we switch on and off at each other's houses. I was worried at first that I wouldnt be able to stick to my WW point system on those nights but so far so good. It was our turn last week, so I measured out all the food and figured out the point values the night before so when it came time to eat, I had a plan and stuck to it. I also made myself a WW smoothie instead of eating the brownies. The weeks that really concern me are the weeks that we dont do the cooking but I think I've got it covered. I always know before Thursday what is on the menu so this time, I've asked for the recipes and have calculated how much points everything is worth. (I wont be joining in on the dessert this time - its a WW bar or skinny cow ice cream for me, to me wasting 15 points on a slice of apple dutch pie is just not worth it to me - rather save the points for dinner or something else). Well duty calls back to work I go...
P.s...Now onto week 2 of Weight Watchers..WISH ME LUCK! :)
