Day 3

Well, today started off great. Got on the scale and I was 4, yes FOUR pounds lighter than Monday morning. Now, I’m no fool, I know it’s water weight, but it still feels good to see the number go down. As for my eating today, eh, it was a rough day. We [...]

Lunch:
Potato (2.5)

Day 1

Okay. Today was day one of post baby WW. I’m struggling with WW and nursing because I am so dang hungry. I have to rationalize that (1) they know what they are doing when the set it up for nursing moms (2) i’m hungry because that is what a diet feels like (3) my [...]

Brown Bag Burritos

I made a bunch of these up before baby for my son.  Apparently they are REALLY good. I’m still kinda nervous to try one right now while nursing, but I figured the points just in case.  Not too shabby at 5 pts per burrito.

I’m back…

Had a baby. Back to the WW grind. Its hard right now because between having little energy and two kids…I’m not cooking. I bought a BUNCH of produce and cut it up so that is helping the snacking.
I’m LOVING that I get 33 points right now. The ten for [...]

interesting

Did you know point per ounce ground turkey is higher than 97% lean beef. 
 
Dang! and I thought I was doing good stocking up on ground turkey….bummer!

Fine, Fine, I’ll update it…

Hum, um, where to begin….
 
I have to say, I’m having a much harder time losing weight this time with WW.  Last year I was already in th every low 130’s, this year I’m still in the mid 130’s after two months. What’s the difference this time, dedication!
 
Last year I was really dedicated. If i didn’t [...]

Week One Back on Plan

So, it really shouldn’t come as any shock that I lost this week. Duh, Weight Watchers works if you follow the plan. I lost 2.8 pounds.  Shocking really….yet, not shocking.
This week I tracked every morsel in my QuickTrack system. Usually, I track everything online, but my leader encouraged me to give her a copy when [...]
