The Monday after Easter was my weigh-in day at WW. I wasn't nervous about it- I just reminded myself that I was pretty determined, and stuck to my points , so I should do ok- or stay the same. I was surprised and happy to see that I lost 2.2 pounds! I was happy because I tried very hard not to eat a lot at 2 family Easter get togethers, plus I had to control myself when we had my Dad's birthday cake from my favorite bakery! I split a piece with my husband-so I felt safe on that decision. When we got home, we went for a 4 mile walk to help with the weekend eating-but later in the evening, we had popcorn made on the stovetop by the bucketful! (We counted it as dinner and snack since we had an Easter Brunch that day!) LOLI am now down 5.8 pounds. I have 8 more pounds to go to get to my goal. This week I have tracked my points, drank my water, walked, and self-talked a lot so that I wouldn't binge or over do anything. It's so easy to add on to portion size and add on helpings. I am using a lot of the "anchoring" techniques that I've learned at the WW meetings-they help!
Well, it's only Wednesday, so I have 4 days and a half to continue to do well. Weigh in is Monday- hope it is in the negative again!
Have a great week!
