After being on vacation for a week, I have fallen off the weight loss wagon. Losing 27 lbs in 13 weeks with the help of Weight Watchers (3rd or 4th time member, I lose count) our little family reunion/vacation was the large bump in the road that threw me off. After a week of not tracking, not exercising and not paying attention to the amount of ice cream I ate, I decided that Monday (today) is the day, I get back into it. I've got 40ish lbs left to lose, so I'm starting the week off right. Weighed in yesterday and gained 1.2 lbs, making the total weight loss to date, 26 lbs. At least it wasn't 3 like I thought it was going to be, but still not horrible for what was consumed last week. Today I am starting my day off with a Weight Watchers Milk Shake (WW Coconut Smoothie mix, 1 cup FF milk, 1 banana, blended), I am quite surprised at how well it tastes, and it counts as 2 milks! Yay! I hate milk so getting it in wherever I can is a bonus for me, and well... ice cream with peanut butter (my choice of milk serving) should be a once in a while kind of thing not an every night one like it has been the last week. I am also planning on joining a friend who teaches a step class at a local gym to get in those activity points and to boost my metabolism. If you've had a bad week, bad day, or even a bad meal don't fret... everyday is a new day to start over and start fresh. The whole weight loss thing for me is about planning and having point friendly foods at my fingertips. So clean out the pantry, plan your meals, and get in some exercise, you'll be happy you did and you'll feel much better!
