Well, I guess I let my paltry 7.5 lb weight loss go to my head, because I've been lax in tracking my points. I've had too many cookies this week...including several on today. I've been snacking incessantly all day--I've had two tangelos, the coconut cookies, and a 100-calorie pack of keebler shortbread cookies. I cooked spaghetti on Tuesday, and while it was healthy (I used a pound of 99% fat free turkey meat, whole wheat noodles, and 1/2 container of Prego original spaghetti sauce), I think my servings were way too big! My husband and I ate that stuff three days in a row (and it was delicious)!
My husband and I have decided to have pizza and a salad tonight. A slice of thin crust cheese or ham pizza from Pizza Hut is 4 points. I'll probably order the ham pizza. I plan to have two slices, plus a salad with fat free italian dressing and fat free shredded cheese (1 point total for the salad). I hope I can maintain control and not eat my usual 3 or 4 slices.
I'm not going to do my pre-weigh in on tomorrow. I'm sure that I haven't lost a pound this week, with the way I've been eating. I just hope I didn't gain anything! We'll see on Tuesday...
On a high note, today I wore a pair of blue jeans to work (size 15/16 junior) that, two months ago, I was absolutely unable to zip or button! And yesterday, I wore a pair of 14p pants, and they didn't bind me to the point of discomfort. Yay!
Until next time, stay sweet and stay blessed!
