I think I’m off to a normal start. I still have to weigh-in tonight, and honestly I have no idea what the scale will say. I didn’t get enough water over the weekend. I did, however, exercise twice this past week in the form of walking/hiking. It was invigorating. I need to get on a better exercise regimen – more stable – with alternating strength training and cardio. I think I will look for some sort of DVD/Stretchy Rope/Weights box set combo to help me out in that regard. And I have a treadmill at home, so I have no excuse to not get the cardio in. I guess it’s just about normalizing the exercise into my life. Making it a habit I cannot break.
I think I’ve done okay on the eating – with the exception of last night (a CPK pizza with sour cream and guacamole – I ate all of it!), I’ve handled myself fairly well. I’ve tried to get Points amounts for everything and apply them accordingly. I have made use of my Flex Points!
I think the one thing I took from my first meeting was that I am not perfect – and I don’t need to be to lose weight. It’s the keeping at it that does the trick in the long run. If I had not quit a diet plan every time I had felt I had gone overboard or made a mistake, I would now be a great deal slimmer.
Things I’ve noticed this week:
-While walking, my jeans feel a little looser in the thigh area.
Things to accomplish for this next week:
-Incorporate more exercise into week (more than walking twice)
-Go to store to stock up on WW pre-made meals and WATER for home
-Get more vegetables and milk in
Foods I had this week that I will try to not include next week:
-California Pizza Kitchen Tostada Pizza with sour cream and guacamole
-1 scoop banana ice cream with peanut butter cup from Cold Stone Creamery
-Grilled Vegetarian Burrito with sour cream from Baja Fresh
