Stupid Poptart

Last WI: 214.2/At Home WI: 213.6

WEDNESDAY

I couldn't seem to get my butt to the gym yesterday. Total slacker. I got home and simply couldn't get the motivation to go to the gym. I was sorta good points wise- I only went over a little. I shouldn't have gone over at all, but a chocolate craving called me late at work yesterday. I had (stupidly) bought a pack of smores poptarts earlier in the week, so I had that as a snack. An 8 POINT snack. Not necessary. But I ended up over by 10 yesterday. I wouldn't have been so bad off but for the poptarts. Some things I just can't resist, so I shouldn't buy. I won't be buying them again.

So, after the pop-tart debacle, I finished work and came home. I wanted to find the motivation to go to the gym, but simply couldn't. In exchange, I did try not to eat much, since when I got home I was already over 2 pts for the day. I ended up having an egg salad sandwich, popcorn, and some broccoli w/dip. 9 pts total for the evening, which would have been fine but for the pop-tart. Oh well. Enough dwelling on the stupid pop-tart.

Today I went to see the Georgia Court of Appeals. They came down from Atlanta to our county to hear oral arguments. It was neat to see, but I sneezed my way through. I'm not sure if it's allergies or a cold, but I took the rest of the day off.

For breakfast, I had a balance bar (4 pts). For lunch I had another egg salad sandwich (finally finished off the easter hard-boiled eggs!) (5pts) and some PB2 (2pts). I made it to the gym after the oral argument - notwithstanding the allergies - and got 3 miles in on the treadmill along with 30 minutes on the elliptical. 10 AP for the day, and really for the week. I wish I'd gone yesterday as well, but hopefully this will do for tomorrow.

For dinner I made a WW tuna casserole with green beans and salad. 11pts total for dinner 13 pts total for dinner. The casserole was good but not great. I do have lots of leftovers for work lunches though.

This morning's at home WI was good considering this week. I'm hoping tomorrow's home WI will be less than 213. If it is, I have hope for a loss tomorrow. I would LOVE to lose a pound or more, but any loss will be great - as usual.

I know I'll go out tomorrow night, but this weekend I don't have any plans. There's a 5K nearby that I want to try to run. I also want to get a good full OP weekend. Maybe then I'll have a "good" loss one week. I'm totally not complaining about 5 straight weeks of losses, no matter how small, but I know that if I had less "indulgent" days like Thursday and Friday, and even Saturday this week, I would have much better losses and wouldn't have as much "catch up" work to do mid-week.
