Weight Watchers Tuesday

Weigh day!   I didn't mind going to Weight Watchers today.  I knew I had lost but wasn't sure how much.  Ended up I lost 3.6lbs!  This put me at my 5% goal of 10lbs.  Wow!!    I lost what I had gained from Spring Break and then some. 

This past week I tracked pretty faithfully.  I believe for me this is very key to my success.  Sometimes I think I've had way too many points but then I track everything and find out I haven't done near as bad as I thought.  What I have been doing is dividing my 49 extra points up into an extra 7 per day.  This gives me 36 points plus.  I almost always use ALL of these points and then some.  I really try to stay below 40.  I don't keep track very well of my activity points. I know I have activity points most days so I figure that 3 or 4 extra points are not hurting me.  To date this is working for me.   

I had lunch with my best friend and her daughter.  We ate at Chen's Chinese restaurant.  I only had a 2 point bar for breakfast and knew I could find something there to eat.  I choose the Pepper Steak with an egg roll and fried rice.  I didn't eat all the fried rice or pepper steak but I did eat the whole egg roll.  I think it ended up being around 20 points.  It was very good and I have left overs if I decide I want to use my points on the rest of that fried rice - tomorrow, of course.  

I decided to give myself a challenge this week of no carbonated drinks.  No diet or anything.  I really wanted my Diet Cherry Coke from Sonic this afternoon but I came home and had Lemon Water.   This will be hard at first.
