Sorry I haven't mentioned my Weight Watchers Take Two progress lately. I just can't seem to get into the routine. I'll get there though!!So this is week 8 and I am down 1lb. Hooray! That means one more pound of food going to feed the hungry through Weight Watchers Lose For Good Campaign!
My goals the last time I posted were:
COUNT ALL POINTS EVERY DAY. I may have to go back with doing a daily quick post or at least a twitter on my points for the day. Any twitter people out there who will be my accountability person??Scratch this one! I've been counting ever point for the past two weeks!- Eat those fruits and veggies. This has gotten better, but still not where I want to be especially with the veggie part!
- Use the treadmill at least three times this week. I did manage to get in two during one week. But, funny thing about that treadmill...I downloaded a new workout playlist, which rocked. Got on the treadmill for the first run and ran my best mile and I do mean RAN! Next night went to do it again and my Ipod fell on the track, got caught under the sides, and well no more Ipod with rockin' playlist. I did get a new Ipod a few days later, but before it came Zoe dropped my laptop and it is broken as in now I can't get into my Itunes with the awesome playlist! I know, I know, NO EXCUSES, but you got to admit that it sounds like somebody doesn't want me to run. No more though...as I speak my Ipod is plugged in and I'm getting ready to create a new playlist on hubby's computer so I have some good running music.
So for this week I'm going to continue working on the same goals until I have reached them all. Two weeks ago I did a great job tracking the points, but exceeded my week by a whole days worth of points. Not cool!! I did manage to not gain, but I didn't want to take that chance again. This past week I counted every point again and exceeded by only 10, which isn't too bad although obviously I am not going to reach my maximum weight loss by exceeding points. Even I know that. So this week...no exceeding my points at all!!
I received some vouchers in the mail to attend a Weight Watcher meeting so I am going to try that Thursday night and see how I like it. There is one right down the road so I figured I could walk there to get some exercise too. I'll keep you posted on what I think. I know some people swear by them and I swear by online so it should be interesting!
What a bummer on the ipod/laptop! Amazing how little things like that totally mess up my exercise plans all the time.
ReplyDeleteBut congrats on that pound!
Mel, I am so proud of you!
ReplyDeleteNo, I did not meet my goals. As a matter of fact I threw all of them out the window last week iN Utah.
I am going to get back on track and I will go back on Saturday next week. :)
Just keep plugging away...plug in the ipod, plug in the laptop, plug in the treadmill...oh, I crack myself up. You will do great this week!
ReplyDeleteI am having trouble with the online, since I just forget to go to the site! I need to look around more and just leave the tab up. And send myself reminders.
I did meetings before and the thing that really worked for me in the beginning was having to weigh in there with somebody else - accountability. Also, getting little awards for hitting 5 pound goals, 10%, etc. And I got lots of great food find and recipe ideas from the meeting.
Let us know what you think!
congrats on your loss
ReplyDeleteHey:) Stopping by from Moms In A Blog Directory and I have to say I LOVE your template! It's gorgeous and it makes me want chocolate lol.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the loss! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm off and on the exercise/treadmill too... the important part is that we eventually go back on right?:)
Great work counting all your points!! Glad it's easier now...
I completely get the iPod thing too - I can't work out without it :)
