Feeling Good!

Hey everybody- this is my weekly check in. I weighed myself this morning and found myself a whole 2.4 pounds lighter!! I was doing the happy dance in my birthday suit! I know too much information!! That makes a total of 3.6 pounds in two weeks. I soooo.... love the Weight Watchers program. I have been very good about charting everything and taking into consideration my points for the day/week etc. This week was way more balanced than last week and I didn't have to deal with the blood sugar dips at all. I relaxed a little bit about my weekly flex points as well and still only used about half of them. I made it to the gym once and did home workouts twice. I still need to boost that part of my program a little. I have to say that the flexibility of this program is just what I need. I have been eating way more fruit and veggies than ever before. I can also tell immediately when I have been slacking on my water for the day. I just have to go guzzle a few glasses every few hours. It is like my body has woken up and it won't settle for being thirsty. I went out to dinner at a cafe' with a new friend this week and I chose a half of a turkey sandwich, no cheese, on wheat bread. It came with potato chips and a pickle. I ate about 3 chips the sandwich and the pickle and felt really good about my choices. I also topped it all off with a soy latte and stayed within my point range for the day. I guess the flexibility in this program makes me feel like I am not on a diet. I have just figured out moderation and the appropriate calories for my body. I love this because I have had no rebellious eating since starting. If I want a little something sweet I just plan for it and track it with my points. There is also no guilt because I am staying on the program. Anyways I am pretty excited so far. You have all been so inspiring and you're all doing so well. Keep up the good work ladies. I will post again next week.
