Well, here I am kiddies. Sorry I haven't been around much. School starting typically kicks my tush this time every year. I weighed in 2 weeks ago and lost 1.4, which I was content with. I came online after to post and almost every time I try to open the smilies window, my whole thing freezes up and I lose everything. I was so irritated and didn't feel like typing it all again so I just didn't. Sorry.
Last week I didn't weigh in. I was still on Mondays and having to switch from mornings to evenings and just dreading it. It was Institute Day so we went out to lunch. I was doing well and split a big *** salad with my friend (another WWer). Got back to my classroom to do some things and had a snack and a big (but yummy) banana then realized that weigh in was only 2 hours away! I was so irritated at myself that I had this heavy food that wouldn't digest in time so I just didn't go. To top it off, we got a new restaurant here in town (our THIRD restaurant... OOOOH!) so I had that for dinner. I realized that I had 9 days until my next weigh in and that my new official week start on Wednesday now (remember- we are getting our meeting back here in town!) so I just allowed myself to eat on Monday night. By that time, who cares?! Tuesday I allowed myself my leftovers from Monday's dinner (chicken salad with a slice of cheese on a croissant! YUM!) then it was back on track on Wednesday again. I hopped on the scale Monday night at home and was up FOUR pounds! Yeesh! Granted, it was an undigested late dinner but still! It took the rest of the week but I got myself back down again, thankfully.
Also, getting myself back down, got me to my Labor Day goal right on Labor Day. Well, it was my amended goal #2 so I guess I was still successful regardless since I met the first goal in July or so. And, today is officially unofficial since there was no weigh in because of the holiday. I still fret about Wednesday night, though, since it's back to an evening weight. I'm hoping to get down another pound, though, so that when it reflects the evening weight, it's still lower than the morning weight from 2 weeks ago. I think this pound will be a toughy, though, because it's going from 150 to 149 and that change over is always tough! Isn't it funny how it's just the same size pound as every other pound but it is SOOOOO much harder to get off? We'll see how it goes...
Christy- welcome back to the TWO's, babycakes! I'm so proud of you!
Keep it up!
Also, welcome to all you newbies out there!
