Eck (9-18-09)

I'll say it again -- eck. Got on the scales at WW this week (9-14-09) and weighed 192.2. I gained 0.2 since last week, which is not that big of a deal. But Monday morning (same date) I got on my scales and weighed 192. Okay. But last week I was so psyched to weight 188.5, like, three or four days in a row. Now THIS morning (9-18) I get on my scales and was 193.5. Eck.

I've got to get back on track with the high protein/low carb thing. I know this is my main problem. I've been craving potato chips lately, and eating them, too.

Eck :(

WW Week 25

No meeting yesterday because of Labor Day, but this morning at home I weighed 188.5. Woo hoo! Now I just hope I can STAY in the 180's and not creep back into the 190's....

I'm learning. Slowly but surely, I'm learning.

WW Week 24

Yep, it's been a while. I'm still plodding along and it's been nearly 6 months. On my home scales I finally saw 190.0 for the first time ever! I'm excited. That means I've lost 21 pounds from my highest of 211. 21 pounds in 24 weeks -- not bad. And I still have 16 more weeks to go until Christmas. Maybe I can lose a total of 30-35 pounds by then...

I've abandoned the very strict Atkins way of eating for a more general low-carb, low-fat, fiber-ful way of eating. I don't track my WW points like I should every day, but when I eat smarter, I lose a little. I usually start out the week tracking pretty well, but it never fails that I can't get to my tracker, or I forget to write something down, etc. I figure I'll just try to eat the good-for-you stuff, then it'll take care of itself.
