Day 155

I did it!
40.6!
A little extra too!

Celebrated with Chinese for lunch and Ted's for dinner
But I can say, that I only ordered off the lunch menu and still ordered a light portion
But I did have lots of chips, queso and tortillas

Back on track tomorrow
10 more need to be gone by the end of December to make a nice 50

Day 154

I have had so many comments the past 2 days...I love it!
I'm sure I have lost that other .2
I had a very stressful day but stayed on track
Don't get me wrong, I wanted to go eat so damn bad tonight
I wore pants today that I haven't wore in years...maybe 4-6 years!
They were out of style but who the fuck cares!

Day 153

Ditto for Wednesday
Once my ass gets into bed it can't get out!

But I did weigh this morning.....
39.8 gone
Can I do .2 by tomorrow morning?
I sure in the hell can!

Day 152

Sorry, couldn't bring myself to get out of bed to blog last night
I really want to hit that 40 by Friday so really watching what I eat
Stopped by McD's for dinner
But just got me a grilled chicken plain and shared a small fries with Noah

Got up this morning to 38.6!
So 1.4 to get rid of before Saturday

I can do it!

Day 151

Stayed within my point range
In fact, I have 2 more left that I plan to use after the kids are all asleep

I'm looking forward to getting on the scale tomorrow
WARNING TMI ALERT!
It occurred to me today that it has been a couple of days since I pooped
But got that taken care of so let's get on the scale now!

Day 150

I got over my so called plateau...
Then went to Super Salad for dinner
Damn it was good too

If I can stay on track this week, I think I can loose the other 2 pounds I need to loose this month to make it an even 40

Day 149

Stayed on track today
I was one point over
It is going to take some work to cut my points down this time
But I still have my flex points that I can use weekly so maybe it won't be so bad after all

Stayed home today and cleaned and started laundry
Haven't felt too good either

I think I will get on the scale tomorrow

Day 148

I had a wonderful day in the food world!
I made 2 WW recipes

For lunch I made Taco Soup
It was so good!
And it really hit the spot on this cold day
It should be around 2 points
I added a spoonful of low fat sour cream to my bowl and oh my! It rocked! Just an extra little kick!
I had that for lunch and dinner

This afternoon I made Pumpkin Muffins
2 points each
All you use is can pumpkin, water and a spice cake mix
Wow they were good too!

Something I did discover...
I should have gone down on my points a week or so ago..
I should be in the 27-29 range now
So I am at 30...only one over

But thank goodness that was after I counted the frozen yogurt from Braum's

I told you I had a good food day

If you would like any of the recipes from today's blog let me know!

I plan to look for some more WW soup recipes this weekend
I will let you know what I find

Day 147

I didn't hold back for Thanksgiving
But tomorrow (Friday) back on board

Thanks for your inspirations Jennifer!

Day 146

I wasn't going to even add up my points today but I reminded myself that I need to do it anyway
But I really was ok
I was only over by 4
But then after dinner and adding up points, I made a dessert to take tomorrow and dibbled on that while I was making it
Then have had 5 pieces of Halloween candy
So I would have had a good day if it wasn't for the munchies tonight

Day 145

Ok, really feeling like a big fat cow!
I must be PMSing!
Donuts and a coke for breakfast
Chinese food, cookie and a big coke for lunch
Mazzio's buffet for dinner
Damn!
I'm beginning to see that I need to do this once a month to stay on track

Got up in the middle of the night and had trouble getting back to sleep
So I was up on the computer looking at plastic surgeons then before and after pics
I have also been DVRing this season of Nip and Tuck
I finally watched 2 episodes tonight
I love it!

Day 144

I'm feeling like a big fat cow!
I had planned to eat Thanksgiving with Chloe in the cafeteria
Then have a sensible dinner :)

But hell no!
I needed real food for dinner
So we went to Moe's
Yummy chips and queso, cheicken quesadilla

Now I feel like shit!

Day143

Today was better...no puking
But a shit load of laundry today

I am actually under on my points today
I still have 2 more! That's a first. I will have a little snack after all the little ones are asleep
Got on the scales this morning and I am only down .6
I will get on them again tomorrow and I feel it will be a little more

Can you believe that 1 EL Fudge cookie is 2 points
They have been in my house for 24 hours now and I have wanted one so freakin bad
Decided it was worth 2 points

I'm not going to over in my points this week so I will be ok Thursday

Day 142

Today was so fun (eyes rolling)
Started the day with Drayton puking in our bedroom floor around 4am
Then he puked or pooped all day
And Noah is extremely cranky since he has been on the "roids"
Noah takes his last dose in the AM and Drayton was all better by 6
But Murphy's Law is that at least 1 or 2 more of the Brown family will get this virus too

I had the nachos again tonight but added the sour cream
They were yummy and easy...both were needed around the total craziness that is my house

Day 141

I am over by a whopping 10 points today but fighting another damn cold and I know that my body needs a little more when I am sick
I got on the scales this morning...37.2 total!
2.8 to loose in 2 weeks
I can do that
Hell I did that in one week last week

I really wanted to splurge again tonight but ended up making a different version
I made nachos
Counted out my 9 regular tortilla chips
1/3 cup of cheese
4 oz of 90/10 hamburger meat
For a total of 11 points
It was good too
Next time I will remember to add some sour cream

Day 140

I went over by a couple of points
Found myself getting upset then realized that maybe I didn't do so bad after all
I should have counted my points yesterday even though I went a little crazy
Because last time I ended up being pleasantly surprised it actually wasn't that much
So lesson learned
Even when I think I have eaten too much...sit down and write it out and figure points

Day 139

Yes, I'm playing catch up!
Luncheon at work
I made some good choices...didn't go crazy with one of my favorite foods...BBQ
But after a crazy afternoon so I caved in and ate some cookies, pumpkin rolls and muffins
Try again tomorrow

Day 138

So far .6 for the week
My kids are still sick and I am going crazy
So the story continues....

Day 137

I wore a pair of pants today that I haven't been able to wear in a couple of years
They were a little snug but I could zip them!

I'm going to get on the scales tomorrow morning
No big expectations but need to check in

Day 136

Another pound
36.6 pounds gone!

Gave in and went to Ci-Ci's for dinner

4 more pounds to go before the end of the month
I can do that!

I have been trying on some pants tonight
Found some that I couldn't wear before
It's very motivating!

Day 135

Kids are sick
I'm in a funk
Looking forward to getting out of the house tomorrow
Also think I will get on the scales again
It seems like losing weight is the only thing that keeps me going lately

Day 134

I can't freakin beleive it!
35.8 pounds gone!
3 pounds just since Monday!

Kids are sick
More tomorrow

Day 133

A long day!
Worked until after 8:00
I was a little afraid to figure my points because I know I went over some because PTA served dinner
But I was only over by 14 which totals 28 for the week
Then I still have 7 points to use over the next 2 days
So what did I learn from this?
When I think I have blown it...write it all down and count the points
You could be surprised

Day 132

Sorry, went to bed with a migraine and forgot to tell you the good news
33.6 gone!
Less than 7 pounds to get rid of before the end of the month!

Day 131

I have been in such a funk today
I don't fell good and I'm pissy
But, I stayed on track!

I only went over by 4 points!
I wanted to cave in so badly for dinner!
But I drove around and made a plan for myself
I got a big coke before dinner (that helped tremendously!!! Isn't it amazing how a coke can change your whole day?)
Then we went to Sonic and I just had a grilled cheese and a couple tator tots
That did the trick

Off to bed to sleep off this funk!

Day 130

The only thing that is kept me going today is 32.2 pounds gone!
So very happy that I am back to my original weight before my 2 weeks of hell
Slightly less than 8 pounds to get rid of before the end of the month

I don't know how the hell I have kept my composure all evening
It seemed to hit the fan as soon as I walked out of the door at school
And it ended with me stepping in dog shit with bare feet
It can only get better from here!

I some how cooked dinner through all of the chaos around me tonight
Scrambled eggs, bacon and hash browns
eggs-5 points bacon (2)-4 points hash browns-1 point
Great dinner for a cold night
I have to say that I did miss the cheddar cheese that I use to mix in the eggs :(

I tried the carmel sundae jello pudding that is 1 point and it rocks!
I think it was better that the chocolate banana

Day 129

OK, this better take this time
I tried to post this morning and it told me to try again later

So here goes...
Another party and no cake
Yea for me...it was hard but I declined

Stopped and got personal pans from Pizza Hut for us for dinner
Can you believe those little fuckers are 14 points!
Damn that's a lot

Went over in my points just a bit but I did walk all over Little River Zoo
So that has to count for something!

Day 128

Another day with my ass back in WW mode
I went over on my points a bit but I need to be looking at baby steps right now
Another day I didn't go ape shit crazy

I did feed my children birthday cake at a party and didn't have any myself
That's good
Thought about getting a small pizza for the boys and I to share
Decided to get them kids meals because I wouldn't eat it
That's good
Cooked dinner tonight
That is a fuckin miracle!

Good day!

Day 125-127

Wednesday-went out with Herb to RiverWind and didn't get home until 1am!

Thursday spent 1.5 hours in the dentist chair and was so damn sore I went to bed at 8:30

Friday- I am officially back on track! I think I did go over a little on my points today but I didn't go ape shit like I have been...so that's ok!
Took the kids to see the Bee Movie tonight
Not for sure how much popcorn I ate so it was hard to add up

I have to get my ass back on track
I need to loose 20 pounds before the end of the year
