Mid Week Check Up

Okay, I haven't exactly stayed on the WW power foods this week. But, I have been eating more fruits and veggies and choosing wiser options when we have fast food. Like Friday, I had Quizno's for lunch, but I had a Turkey Cuban, no mayo, on wheat (9 points) and a Mondito from Taco Del Mar, that was flour tortilla, chicken, whole pinto beans, no rice, guacamole, salsa and very little cheese, and that was 9 points too. I added fresh fruit to each meal and for snacks.

Yesterday I was at lab and was so busy I didn't get to eat much of anything, but I packed healthy food. When I got home I still had over 20 points left for the day. I ate wisely and ate all my points and even allowed myself to have a cocktail.

Today has not been a good day. I took Julie to Burger King for chicken fries. We shared a 12 piece (she ate 6 pieces to my 5), onion rings and a coke. Yes, it was high in points, yes it was very high in sodium, but I also had a 4 point breakfast, snacked on 2 fruits and have had over my 8 glasses of water today. I also still have 45 of my 49 uh-oh points for the rest of the week.

So, flexible WW allows me to eat where I like to eat. I just choose wiser selections or less of the bad stuff and surround the bad stuff with good stuff.

Also, I am happy to report that all my retention issues have been resolved. I stepped on the scale this morning and I was pleased to see that it was way below where it was Thursday.

Until next time....
