• Weight Watchers - Week 14

  
  

  Ugh. Another gain. And this time I wasn't eating like shit. Or at least not as much shit as last time. Up 0.2lbs. Nothing horrible but just clearly, I need to be better (there was a Taco Bell day and a Pasty Grimaldi's pizza day). As well as too many days with NO gym - and while I can typically at least squeeze in a 30 minute walk, I really don't qualify that as enough exercise while I'm trying to lose like this.

  
  

  Part of the Weight Watchers program is to follow the "Good Health Guidelines" - the biggies:

  
  

  1.) Eat at least 5 servings (total) of fruit and/or vegetables daily (I do this everyday - and typically get 8+)

  
  

  2.) Include at least 2 servings of milk daily (I do this about 4 to 5 days a week - though I try really really hard to keep them fat free or low fat - Helllllo Laughing Cow cheese).

  
  

  3.) Have some (recommendation is 2 tsp) healthy oil in your diet everyday (This I do not do everyday, I don't think. I do eat my veggies sauteed in oil in an attempt to get more olive oil - 3 servings of veggies sauteed in about 1T of garlic flavored olive oil - about 1tsp maybe makes it into me if I'm lucky....welll, 1tsp for each serving of cooked veggies and I try to eat 2 a day. I typically succeed in eating 2 servings of cooked veggies 4 days or so a week).

  
  

  4.) Drink at least 6 glasses of water. (This I KNOW that I do NOT do but maybe 2 or 3 days a week.)

  
  

   

  
  

  So.
  If I am to remain serious about this.

  
  

  I will:

  
  

  1.) Do better about eating out. Limit fast food out to Subway only and one time a week. Go out to dinner with Joshua every other week only.

  
  

  2.) Do better about drinking water. 6 glasses is a minimum! 8 glasses or more is more like it...

  
  

  3.) GYM! The other thing that was lacking this past week was gym time. I missed on Thursday, Sunday and Tuesday and slacking off at the gym on Saturday and Monday. I did take a walk on Tuesday but really, that doesn't really do much. Soooo...back to trying for a 5-7 days a week worth of working out and working out at a decent level instead of last week's slacking off.

  
  

  I hate paying to gain weight!

  
  

  Hopefully these three things work.

  
  

  If not, I will either be switching to the core plan (I'm on the flex plan currently) or else cutting myself back to 23 points instead of 24 points everyday...
