Last WI: 214.6/Last at Home WI: 214.8
TUESDAY
Ok, so I know when I'm not bloggin, I'm usually not on plan. I knew the 211.8 was too good to be true.
This week has been tough. Erik's parents have been in town since last Wednesday and boy do they cook. And I feel very rude not eating what they cook. For example - they are leaving today and had bought some sausage for breakfasts that they hadn't cooked, so Erik's dad decided to get up this morning and cook me breakfast. Very sweet notion, but I usually have a balance bar for breakfast - my 4 point moderation. But instead, this morning, I felt obligated to have sausage and toast - much more than 4 points I'm certain. Grrr.
But - they left today so at lesat my food challenges should reduce. I've just not been on top of it at all. My only saving grace has been exercise. I ran 6 miles on Saturday and did 90 minutes of cardio on the elliptical and bike on Sunday. Yesterday I took my "rest" day and today I plan to do at leat 4 miles on the treadmill, hopefully 6, but a minimum of 60 minutes cardio either way. I've got to get this under control or these next few months are going to fly by with no progress.
I only have 67 days until Holly's wedding. I had really hoped to be in Onderland by then. I still can, but I have got to kick it up. After this Thursday - which I'm still hoping for some kind of loss - I have 9 more WI's before the wedding. I've got 14.6 lbs to lose. I can do it. I just have to rededicate myself!
Today I'm leaving work about 1:00 for a dentist appointment. Then I'm headed to the gym for my work-out then I'm volunteering at the local fair. I've already had a big breakfast as noted above, and am supposed to be going to lunch for a collegue's birthday shortly - Need to make good decisions!
Here's to a good day!

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.
