WW Update – Week 34

February 2nd, 2010

Pounds lost in Week 34: .8 pound

Total weight lost so far : 26 pounds

When I texted my husband to tell him that I lost weight this week, he responded “How did you manage that?” – to which I responded, “Hell, if I know.” This weekend was CheezWaster’s birthday and while I did a fair amount of going up and down the stairs at our church hall doing set up, I still ate cake and brownies and pizza…..and the list of crap food goes on. I did try and plan for it by saving up points as I knew I was already in the hole with my pound gain from last week and it looks like it paid off. I’m still down .2 from my original low weight, but now that the holidays and all of the birthdays are over, I’m vowing to see the numbers 27 and 28 and well, you know.

WW Update – Week 33

January 26th, 2010

Pounds lost in Week 33: -1 pound

Total weight lost so far : 25.2 pounds

Well, it looks like January is going from bad to worse. Last week, I lost no weight, but didn’t gain either. This week, I gained a pound. But, I did go and stand on the scale, even though I had a sneaking suspicion that the scale was going to be up….unlike some other people who read this blog who shall remain nameless (you know who you are!) LOL – friend guilt…gotta love it!

I know what the problem was, though, so that is at least a step in the right direction. Since the Destroyer’s birth, I get raging migraines the day before and every day of my period. I’ve talked to different doctors and outside of a very expensive, fabulous little pill that makes them all go away, but that my insurance unfortunately won’t cover, I can’t seem to get rid of them. This is a not an uncommon occurrence for women, I’m told. Anyway – the one thing that keeps me going for that special week of the month is my little bottle of Excedrin Migraine and Coke (the caffeine helps the Excedrin work better and faster – no lie – my doctor told me this!) Last week, the migraines were BAD. And I drank A LOT of coke. Oh and then there was the cookies and donut I ate on Sunday.

I’m sort of dreading this week foodwise, too. Saturday is CheezWaster’s birthday party. Then, there is the party at his school next week. So, this week the normally Dorito shaped devil sitting on my shoulder will be replaced by the cupcake shaped one. Here’s to hoping that the scale shaped angel will be sitting on the other shoulder this week!

WW Update – Week 31

January 12th, 2010

Pounds lost in Week 31: 3.4 pounds

Total weight lost so far : 26.2 pounds

And I’m back in the game!!! Tracking is clearly the key to my success. I went back to writing down everything that went into my mouth. Last week my WW leader said, “If you bite it, you write it” and man, was she right. During all of my previous success, I did the tracker. Then, I stopped during the holidays. STUPID MISTAKE……and a lesson learned. I also did some things that I didn’t even do during my previous success. Firstly, I said No to the Almighty McDonald’s. While the rest of the family ate McD’s, I ate a cauliflower souffle and salad. It was hard, but I really enjoyed my souffle, so it didn’t seem that bad. I drank more water. And I listened to Kate Moss….well, sort of. Kate once said, “Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels”. And while I don’t advocate stick thin figures who maintain their bodies via a diet of starvation and cocaine, I do advocate thinking about the food choices you make. I could have eaten McD’s. I had the points. It probably would have tasted better to me – AT THAT MOMENT. But, the souffle was a better AND healthier choice – AND I enjoyed that, too.

WW Update – Week 30

January 5th, 2010

Pounds lost in Week 30: -1.4 pound

Total weight lost so far : 22.8 pounds

The last two weeks of loss shocked the hell out of me at weigh-ins, but alas, my holiday eating has finally caught up with me. I honestly think that 2 weeks ago, I was too busy to eat. Not this week, though! But, as my WW leader said last night, that is all in the past and this is a New Year. So – back on track. Back to tracking, starting to exercise and back to losing!

WW Update – Week 29

December 28th, 2009

Pounds lost in Week 29: .2 pound

Total weight lost so far : 24.2 pounds

Well, Christmas has come and gone and in the past 2 weeks, despite eating my fair share of crap, I’ve managed to lose a pound (.8 last week and .2 this week)! WHOO-HOO! I didn’t hit the 25 pound mark (again) like I had hoped, but I didn’t gain either and THAT really was the MAIN goal. So, here is a to HAPPY, HEALTHY, CHOCK FULL OF WEIGHT LOSS NEW YEAR!

PS – Happy Anniversary to my weight loss partner in crime, Chris and her super-athletic (why can’t I run a 5K like him???) husband Brian!
