What does your tracker say? 7-1 through 7-7
I know MrsD2008 has been busy (and wasn't feeling well!) so I thought I would start the new thread for her :)
Copy and pasted from the other thread: Introduce yourself by answering any or all of these questions. Then feel free to add your tracker when it's convenient for you. I like doing mine at night because it makes me feel accomplished for the day and sets me up for a fantastic next day! If you have already answered these questions in a previous week, don't worry about answering all of them again! Goal of the Week, Challenge of the Week and How can we help you can be answered every week if you wish! Name: (user or real, whatever you feel comfortable with) Location: (share as much as you feel comfortable sharing, ex: I am in the states, so I will share my home state) Current Plan: (Points Plus? Momentum?) Current Weight: (or last weigh in) Lifetime Goal: (this one is easy! If you're unsure, don't feel pressured to fill it in. And if you're curious about what a "healthy BMI" for you is, check out the back of your weight tracker from meetings, or use some google power!) Trigger Foods: (just list them and feel free to add why) Goal for the Week: (you set a goal for yourself, self explanatory) Challenge for the Week: (YOU decide what you want to challenge yourself with. And if you want to skip this, feel free!) How can we help You this week?: (anything we can do to support and check in on you, etc. post it!) Any and all Weight Watchers should feel free to join this thread! Whether you're on Points Plus and 30 or Momentum and 50, it doesn't matter! Doesn't matter if you have eTools, if you attend meetings, if you follow at home, whatever--if it's Weight Watchers, you're welcome! But, please be currently following some sort of past or present Weight Watchers plan. Once you've joined the thread, I will post a one-liner with your user name, real name (if you want to share) and Weight Watchers Plan you're following.

Thanks Patchy! I think Mrs. D was doing Friday thru Thursday tho.. so here's my Friday tracker, I'll post Saturdays tonight.
Still nauseous from stress, so I didn't eat a whole lot. I ended up with lots of points by dinnertime, so I splurged on a half order of nachos from Denny's- exactly what I was craving! I got their Pacific NW iced coffee special and it was GOOD! but I didn't know at the time (I'd only pre-budgeted for the nachos) that it was 7 pts, I was shocked when I came home and figured it out- so I did a quick workout and broke even on points. BFAST egg + egg white 2 oil, 1 tsp 1 canadian bacon, 1 slice 0 toast 1 butter, 1 tsp 1 grapes and orange 0 LUNCH hummus, 3 tbsn 3 carrots, broc, pickle 0 DINNER denny's half nachos 18 pacNW iced coffee 7 SNACKS grapes 0 PTS ALLOWED 29 TOTAL USED 33 REMAINING PTS -4 ACTIVITY PTS 4 PTS AFTER ACTIVITY PTS 0 |

I'm not sure, I would assume that sort of gearing up would happen toward ovulation but I remember reading an article once that we don't really gain weight at TOM but just that we tend to eat more instinctually. I might have to google it.
I had a tuna melt today, it was so freaking good but I'm absoultely stuffed and am going to try to stick to greens and fruit for the rest of the day I think. |

I've been having a rough time, too, maybe this thread will help. I have been doing really well on WW and suddenly all I want to eat is junk. I've started a new job where they have cakes/cookies/chips/crap in the break room constantly and nobody tries to eat healthy (but they have all had or are planning to have WLS, go figure) and I don't know if I am resentful that I can't eat that stuff and am acting out or what is wrong with me but I need to get back on track, pronto.
Here's my questionnaire: Name: Spooky Location: MD, USA Current Plan: Points Plus (the best plan ever) Current Weight: 212.8 lbs (last WW weigh in) Lifetime Goal: 140 lbs right now, will reevaluate when I get there Trigger Foods: Chips/french fries/cookies/crap Goal for the Week: To track every day and stay within my points, meet all of the GHG at least 5 days this week Challenge for the Week: I will exercise at least 3 days this week How can we help You this week?: Nudge me if I haven't checked in with my tracker? That seems to be my biggest difficulty right now, tracking everything. Holding my place, will update with today's tracker later. Monday, 7/4/11: Breakfast: Coffee/sugar/creamer: 3 PP (yes, I use real sugar in my coffee and it is AWESOME) Special K/banana/skim milk: 5 PP Subtotal: 8 PP Um, yeah, so the rest of my day was blown. I had a sandwich for lunch, half a fried seafood platter and ice cream for dinner (at a carnival) and am now having a beer. GAH. Tomorrow I am taking: yogurt, fruit, and a lean cuisine to work. It will be a better day. |
Welcome to the thread Spooky! Will nudge as needed :)
True - girlsenberry - at least theoretically. I had to guess at the tuna melt much like your pizza and it is probably more. I think I've had a few days like that this week and I hate it. I'm up a pound or so as of right now but that very well could be water/TOM stuff. I'm going to be more careful the next 3 days and try to get myself back on track :) |
Grr I can't update my plan manager because I need to add a recipe for bread... Seems to be a technical problem at WW because I tried two different browsers.

I have a feeling I've overestimated lunch (I had a sandwich from whole foods) but I wanted to be on the safe side. Looking forward to kicking my butt and doing spin and body pump again tomorrow. I've been lazy lol. |
Anyone bother tracking yesterday due to the holiday? I went to my sisters annual potluck/fireworks party, so I tracked what I ate, but not the points. I'm okay with doing it on special occasions- I ended up having a taste of nearly everything over the course of several hours.. I didn't feel uncomfortably full, nor did I feel any guilt (now or then). Today is a new day, let the tracking begin. :)

Patchy, you've got 2 oz/ 6 pts listed for salt and pepper- that's like a container of salt! Normally a sprinkling of S&P is zero, right? A Subway 6" roast beef sub sandwich w/o cheese is 8 pts, and add 2 pts for cheese.. even with your pickle, lettuce, cuke, mustard, S&P I would think it would only be 10 pts total... was it a foot long? If so, your points seem correct, but wow the salt thing threw me off. LOL :D

Thanksssss!!!!

About eating a lot around TOM:
Patchy is right, we *may* eat more around O time, or right after. By 2 days before TOM happens, your body knows if you're pregnant or not and won't gear up for baby that way. KWIM? |

I've been really lazy about tracking tho I think I'm ok. I did the spin and body pump class last night and I'm beat. *laughs* I'm so lazy today, but weigh in tomorrow so I'm drinking lots of water. :)

Oh yeah, I've been meaning to ask.. what's Bodypump like?

Oh salted cashews... yum. I love them and the cinnamon almonds... but I save them for when I'm going super low carb and need high protein lol. Its disappointing to want a handful and get like... a thimble!
Body pump is fun, but definitely a challenge! Its an hour long and there are 10 "tracks" each one with a different song to go along with it, but they each correspond to a muscle group... so it goes something like this: 1. Warmup 2. Legs (squats) 3. Chest (chest presses) 4. Back (rows, clean and presses) 5. Triceps (kick backs or bench work, sometimes pushups) 6. Biceps (curls) 7. Legs again (lunges) 8. Shoulders (front raises, overhead presses) 9. abs (crunches, planks) 10. cooldown You use a bar with weights and each "Track" varies the movements in speed mostly... so sometimes you are doing "Singles" and sometimes you are doing really slow movements.... or "bottom halves" where you do only half the movement. It goes by really fast because you can sing along (if you can breathe)... and you can adjust weights to where you are comfortable. There are actually quite a few youtube videos of different tracks and songs that you can check out or create a playlist with and do at home with free weights. |

Oh, forgot to add...
Crunchy/salty replacement for kettle chips.... they make a low fat version, I don't know the difference in points. And, I like pop chips (in the health food aisle at my store) and/or Special K baked crackers (in the cracker aisle). I LOVE the sour cream and onion Special K crackers, yummm! |
MrsD I think you said you had the Coleslaw recipe? If you do, could you send it to me? looooove coleslaw!
|
I second the Special K Cracker Chips...but only in the sour cream and onion flavor. The sea salt flavor (to me) tastes too much like cardboard.
The Pringles Light chips are also pretty good. |
Well here's me being accountable for my actions.. not long after I posted my tracker last night (I hit 29 pts perfectly, too!), I totally succumbed to the munchies. I had a cowboy cookie @ 5 pts, 1.5 slices pizza @ 12 pts, and then I quit counting points- I also had a big handful of cashews, a handful of M&M's, and a piece of strawberry rhubarb pie w/ cool whip. Good lord. Not long after I felt the twinges of TOM cramps, so that might explain the over-eating.. but I wish I could trust my self-control. I'm just not there, yet. :(
|
My coleslaw recipe:
Simple Coleslaw 1 bag rainbow coleslaw mix 1 cup shredded carrots 2/3 C. fat free mayo 3 Tbsp apple cider vinegar 1 tsp dried dill weed 1 red, crisp apple Whisk together the mayo, vinegar and dill weed. Set aside. Put carrots and coleslaw mix together in one bowl. Chop the apple and add to the coleslaw mix. (You can make the coleslaw mix and carrots finer w/ a food processor, but I like it the way it comes). Add mayo mixture and combine well. Refrigerate at least 4 hours. Last up to 4 days in the fridge. Serves 4-6 people. 1 PP per serving. If you use reduced fat mayo it comes out to 2 PP per serving. |
girlsenberry - we have all had those days. Pick yourself up and do better today :) You can do it, I know you can!
Great chip replacement ideas... I'm going to look into them. My weigh in day and my "relax day" - down 1lb and I had a bagel from Einsteins this morning. So worth it, LOL. |
We had Subway tonight because of the intense heat and I'll probably have Subway tomorrow night too. So that changes my tracker a bit.
I got Lays Baked Chedder and Sour Cream chips. The whole bag was 4 PP, but they were SOOO good!! |
