The weigh in

So my weigh in on Friday didn’t go soo good. I actually gained2 lbs. However I think it came from being stressed out the night before and I don’t know what else…but i think that only because I wasn’t feeling very well. I hope anyway that that’s what it was from. I felt slightly depressed after I weighed in and even kind of mad becuase I hadn’t lost weight. Then I read your guy’s comments and I was encouraged to take measurements too that way I can see if I’ve lost in other areas and not just weight since my weight could gain in muscle so either tonight or at my next weigh in I am going to start with measurments so that I can see if I really am loosing. The weekend was quite stressful becuase it was my best friends birthday. I was tempted by all kinds of goodies including cake and food from Fazolies since that’s where we took her to eat. But I did pretty good I would say and I can’ wait to see where I am at at the end of the week.

Nervous about tomorrow

So my weigh in is tomorrow and I’m extremly nervous because I don’t know what to expect. This week has been really crazy but I haven’t weighed myself at all yet. I hope it went good and I lost weight but with my weight fluctuating so much I just really don’t know what to expect but I am also really dreading it. This morning I ate a fiber one bar for breakfast and for Lunch I have a turkey sandwhich with provolone cheese low fat white bread, low fat mayonaise, and a little bit of mustard. I also have an apple and a plum and a bottle of water. It seems like I’ve been slacking on the water lately. I used to drink like 10 glasses or bottles of water a day and now I don’t think I drink more than about 4 because I’ve been so busy that I don’t sit and drink constantly. For dinner I don’t know what I’m having it depends on what my dad makes if he makes something really fattening then I’m going to eat one of my weight watchers smart ones. I am also going to do my running and walking for three miles like I did yesterday since I have to weigh in tomorrow and I really want a sucessful weigh in. I am going to finally post some goals and rewards on my profile today because I keep seeing them on other peoples profiles and they look like a really good idea so I’m going to post some for myself. Also does anyone have any plans that they follow for eating everyday because if you do I would be interested in knowing them. I just kinda try to eat foods within my point range but I never considered that they may be all the wrong foods. I mean I eat fruits and veggies a lot but I keep all the food within my point range so if I get offered a piece of chocoalte and if I’ve only had say 6 - 10 points and the chocolate will only give me 2 -4 points I will eat it and I’m realizing that its not a good way to do this so if anyone has an eating plan that works and gives you a reward every now and then please let me know thank you

It’s Been a Crazy Week So Far

Today I have only eaten 14 of my points for weight watchers and about 730 calories. I just started a volunteer teaching camp and I had my first teaching session today with 2nd graders and went awesome. I have to teach 1st graders all next week and I am so excited. Even though this week has been crazy busy and I feel like I haven’t had time to concentrate on anything the week has been great. Hopefully I haven’t gained any weight in the process but I shouldn’t have. I am adding this to my blog right now because i just went running for three miles well running and walking on and off but I feel so much better now that I did it. My goal is to run three times a week and a little farther every time so that sooner or later I will be able to run the entire three miles and then work my way up to more.

The Weekend

I was at a wedding Friday night and at my boyfriend’s house the rest of the weekend so I didn’t have access to the internet. However I did pretty bad this weekend or at least I I think so since I couldn’t stick to weight watchers so I’m not sure what my calories or points were but I tried to only eat a little so hopefully things went okay. Its hard not weighing myself everyday but I’m determined to just wait until the end of the weekend. Blogging everything is really helpful though so I’m going to try to find a way to do it on the weekends when I’m gone because it really helps. I also wanted to say thank you to everyone who has been encouraging me and giving me support it really helps to know that others are in the same boat I’m in and that you guys are encouraging me.

Understanding the Food Journal

I don’t really understand the food journal and the whole basal and lifestyle and the total amount that says I should be b/w -250 and -750 I don’t understand how I get to that or what it means so if someone could explain it to me it would be appreciated thank you

Last Night…

Last Night when I got home from work I took my boyfriend and we went to the store so that I could buy weight watchers food and just some other healthy things that I can eat. He doesn’t really agree with what I’m doing because he doesn’t want me to loose weight but he still encourages me the best he can. I finally feel like I am really taking this seriously because I actually went out and bought my own food and I picked it out so that I have something for breakfast, lunch and dinner and I even got some of those 100 calorie snack packs just in case. I guess the only thing that I still have yet to understand is how my weight can fluctuate so much. I was 196 yesterday and then last night I was 197 so I just decided that I would weight myself this morning for my weigh in and now I am 193. My weight does this all the time it goes from high to low constantly and I will loose 10lbs and then gain it slowly back and I have no idea what to do. Basically I weigh 193 right now at 9:32 in the morning but after I eat food I will gain weight back and then i’ll exercise and loose the weight I gained and then weight 193 again.

My First blog

I just joined buddyslim for about the 5th time in my life lol. I am actually going to keep up with it this time. Along with doing weight watchers, I am making a promise to myself to get serious about this whole weight loss thing. I am always upset with my weight and I always complain about it, however it seems like I try and then less than a week later I give up. So this time I am not giving up I am going to weigh what I want so that I can feel better about myself and be happier. No one understands how I feel, I don’t even understand how I feel. Most people would have already lost the weight by now but no not me I’ve been trying for almost 8 years now and it feels like I will never loose it but here I go I’m finally ready. I’m making the commitment and I’m leaping into a promise. I will track in my blog everyday how I feel and what my weight watchers points are. For weight watchers I can eat 22-25 points a day. I have already tracked my calories on here and so far I have eaten 723 out of my 1200 calories that means I can have about 4 hundred some more. My only other meal for the night is dinner so i think i will be okay. As far as weight watchers goes I have eaten 12 of my 22-25 so I can eat 13 more if I need to but hopefully my dinner will be less because I always feel guilty about eating the most amount. I like to eat the least amount. As far as excersise points that I earn I have to figure them out still but on here it said that I have burned about 800 cals. doing excersise and I haven’t even been home from work yet. I am feeling really good about myself right now and I hope it lasts.
