Woohoo! I lost another 3.4lbs, making the total 8.2lbs. I keep telling myself this is to the good, I need to lose the weight so that the hell I went through last year for the surgery will be all worth it. So I do have a long-term goal as WW suggests. My short-term goal right now is to lose another 5-10 pounds before my trip to England on September 13th. Not sure if I can make it, but I am focussed and journaling daily (even if I don’t update this blog daily).
August 23rd (weigh-in day)
I have to admit, I don’t eat before the weigh-in as I just feel a little too queasy in the mornings to eat that early. I was hungry and Lydia came with a little baggie of caramel rice cakes, to the meeting.
I ate:
1 rice cake – 1 point
Breakfast/Lunch – 3 egg omlette (I’m assuming it was 3 eggs as it was fairly large at the restaurant I went to with Lydia and Puck) with veggies, 2 pita quarters and I’m assuming 2 tsp of oil – 8 points
Snack/Drink at the Comic Exp – 500ml of a strawberry smoothie (not sure of the exact points so I’m going to overestimate to be safe) – 5 points
Dinner – went to Fran’s and had the Sheppard’s Pie – 2 cups of it – 20 points
Used 6 of my extra 35 points, down to 29
August 24
I woke up super late, around 11:45am so I mostly grazed through the day.
Breakfast/Lunch:
2c corn bran squares, 1 1/2c 2% milk – 8 points
Snack:
3 slices rye bread, 3 tsp margarine – 9 points
Dinner:
85oz whole wheat pasta, 1/4c crushed tomatoes, mushrooms/greenpeppers/onion, 3oz ground pork, 1oz old cheddar, 1 tsp oil (for the cooking) – 13 points
I point under my daily 31. Still have my 29 extra points, if I choose to use them.
