For reals...

Ok y'all I have been hesitating to write on here because it seems like when I do I end up saying I am so pumped, but then the next day I mess up and go off plan. But the last week and a half I have been counting my points!!!! Last week at weigh in I lost 4.2 pounds. It is amazing how that works. :)

I am sitting here in my house, alone (well Ian is in bed). Justin has gone to get my medicine at Walgreen's. I so desperately want to go open a bag of chocolate chips, but I must resist! I already ate more than what I should have for dinner. I justified it because of being sick (I have bronchitis). So I now need to open up my points tracker and put my points in.

One thing that I think has helped me over the last week and a half is starting my day at 4pm. Not literally, but as far as tracking my points goes. I count my dinner as breakfast, my breakfast as lunch and my lunch as dinner. I find that I enjoy my dinners a lot more and don't end up using as many of my flex points as I did before! It has been great.

Please pray for me as I get my butt into gear, for reals this time. I have a wonderful husband who said "do we need to stop paying for Weight Watchers?". When he said that I decided I need to really get serious again. I love my meetings and I know that if I had stopped going to them I would have gained more than what I did.

Wouldn't it be awesome if I could be at 65 pounds lost by the end of September? That would put me out of my plauteau!
