    Back to WW

    I was under on my Points count yesterday, but it far from being a stellar day. I got wrapped up in our comings and goings and forgot to eat lunch, so I was starving by the time my Weight Watchers meeting rolled around. I'd started dinner in the Crockpot, though, so we didn't have the option of going out to eat. So that was good, at least.


    Breakfast ... 1
    1/2 a Nutrigrain bar ... 1

    Snack ... 9
    apple chips, a truffle and some peanut butter pretzels ... 9

    Dinner ... 12
    Sweet & Tangy Chicken ... 8
    1 cup brown rice ... 4

    over/under
    2 under


    . . . . . the end . . . . .

    I ate a banana. Ugh.

    Things were going swimmingly until dinnertime, and then we ate out rather than having our omelets as scheduled. I still had some Flex Points left, though, so all is well. So far.

    On the right track

    I didn't get a chance to finish my orange this morning, and I was starving by the time lunch rolled around. Overall, though, it was a much better day than yesterday. I haven't actually had dessert yet, but I'm going to! By golly!

    Rachael Ray's Vegetable Red Curry was good, easy and filling, but it was hot. I'll make it again, but I'll cut down on the red curry paste next time.

    Breakfast ... 0.5
    Half an orange ... 0.5

    Lunch ... 7.5
    Amy's Southwestern burrito ... 6
    2 tbl sour cream ... 1.5

    Snack ... 2.5
    2 tbl peanuts ... 2.5

    Dinner ... 7
    Vegetable Red Curry ... 4
    3/4 cup brown rice ... 3

    Dessert ... 4.5
    1/2 cup vanilla frozen yogurt ... 4
    1 cup strawberries ... 0.5

    over/under
    2 Points to spare!

    Resolve

    Awhile back I said I was trying to lose some weight. Since then I've lost a grand total of half a pound. Not stellar work on my part.

    I've been doing Weight Watchers via their online program. I should say I've been paying for the WW online program, because I certainly haven't been following it. So I've decided I'm going to start going to their meetings again, and I'm going to make more of an effort to post on here about the whole weight-loss scene. Because I know it's just a terrifically interesting subject.

    Anyway.

    Amy and I talked this weekend about emailing each other our food journals everyday. I'm going to take it a step further. I'm posting them here.

    I was traveling yesterday, so I'm cutting myself a little slack for it being such a wretched day, Points-wise.
