Bobbled a little bit over the weekend with my eating. Not too horribly bad. But a little bobble. (we were in Lancaster County PA for a concert and a visit with friends). It's all good. On Sunday morning I was showing a loss of 1.2 for last week! WOO HOO. (this morning I weighed myself after I had breakfast and I was down another 4/10ths of a pound so I'm happy!)
Planning really is the key to my success though. Yesterday I had my day planned out. I was HUNGRY when I was heading home after zumba...but I was still on plan. I got home and went to fix dinner. My husband was like "lets eat on our own tonight, I've got leftovers and all sorts of stuff to eat that's gonna go bad if I dont' eat it" That's ok, responsible even. BUT, that left me planless. While we talked I had some special K chips (they are actually pretty good). THEN I had a grilled cheese, some sweet pickles, potato salad, tortilla chips with salsa. And if that wasn't enough, I had a piece of Cheesecake (it was made with low fat/fat free cheeses and creams, does that count for anything) with some of my home canned raspberry syrup over it. Yeah, can we say 'fall off plan" My only consolation...I had eaten soooooo lightly the rest of the day that I somehow managed to not go over my points....yeah, I had eaten mostly fruits and veggies earlier in the day so I was actually ok.
So I'm all planned out for tonight. :-) Another really light day of eating (the fridge is FULL of fresh fruits and veggies....so I'm eating them all up)...and dinner is planned out. :-)
Makes me want to ponder what other areas I could 'PLAN" and then succeed at!!!
Yea, I have to plan my food out for myself too or I find myself wandering in the kitchen just eating stuff. Glad you have a plan for tonight, me too :) Here's to a good week for both of us.
ReplyDeleteI do so much better when I plan. Otherwise, I tend to make less than desired food choices!
ReplyDeletehave a great week!
Sounds like a great plan!
ReplyDeletei had to let go of my whole raising and learn it's ok to toss leftovers, so i'll toss the spaghetti, potato salad, baked beans and other stuff not on my plan before i'll eat it, so glad you're bein stricy with your points. isn't it great when our "plans" work out! xoxoxoxo
