back to online only

February 5th, 2011 · 1 Comment

so I’m back to online only. I wasn’t going to continue to pay $39.99 for a new program that wasn’t really working for me and for meetings I rarely made it to any more. Work is kicking my ass and I’m back to sleeping in on Saturdays so this was the best decision for me. [...]

goal vs. Goal

December 31st, 2010 · Comments Off

I was thinking a lot today about why I’ve been struggling since September. Well maybe struggling isn’t the word, but losing focus. I’m still basically where I was in September but there has been a lot of up and down and a lot of crap food choices causing the ups in that up and down [...]

my tracking is insane

December 30th, 2010 · Comments Off

really tried to get back on track with tracking from Monday this week. Didn’t track Christmas weekend so much for not wanting to see what I ate so much as tracking the amounts would be hard (i.e two olives, one slice of prosciutto, some italian wedding soup). So I vowed to start over on Monday [...]

“I’m very proud of you”

December 27th, 2010 · Comments Off

that’s what my doctor said to me this morning after entering my weight and looking at what I’d lost in the last six months/one year. It really made my day/week. I’ve heard that from immediate family but I don’ t think I’ve heard it from anyone else. Coming from a medical professional especially. Now I [...]

2.2?

December 18th, 2010 · Comments Off

I don’t get it, but I’ll take it. When I stopped tracking on Friday (I know, I know), I was 50+ points in the red. Most of that damage was last Saturday and Sunday, damn you Sour Patch Kids. However a fair bit had been during the week when my meals consisted of brownies and [...]

Back to Basics

December 12th, 2010 · Comments Off

someone said yesterday in my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday that the benefit of the new Points Plus program is that it forced her to go back and look things up. The more I think about it, the more I realize it’s true. I’ve been struggling for the last three months, mainly of my own doing. [...]

Fat Girl Day // Back on Track (Redux)

September 25th, 2010 · Comments Off

So it turns out I wasn’t as back on track as I thought I was. Last night was Celebrate Naz, which I love. Being 350 miles from my undergrad, I don’t have many opportunities to connect with Naz. The NYC alumni chapter is extremely inactive, but I found out about this event last week and [...]

Back on track

September 23rd, 2010 · Comments Off

actually, I was back on track Monday and that was important. I had a pretty crap weekend, weight watchers wise. It was a combination of not tracking (either not bothering, or using the excuse that I didn’t know what it was) and poor food choices (hi, chocolate chip cookies for lunch). I said I was [...]

Monster AP Day

September 11th, 2010 · Comments Off

What was that I said the other day about diminishing activity points?! MONSTER day today w 1487 calories burned, good for 14 APs. The thing is? I totally could have gone longer. It started after my Weight Watchers meeting this morning (up point 2, totally expected after some not great food choices this week and [...]

It’s all about the percentages

September 11th, 2010 · Comments Off

% Pounds Lost Date 10 20.9 4/27 WI 20 41.8 7/28 WI 25 52.25 30 62.7 33 68.97 40 83.6 When I first joined Weight Watchers I was curious how they set mini goals as percentages. I shouldn’t say I like absolutes as I still haven’t set a goal, but I really don’t like %s. [...]
