Day 20- Progress Feels Good!

So, I woke up this morning and decided to check out the old scale. MORE weight gone! I KNEW it! I have to confess that for a few days in a row last week (well like 5), I saw no movement on the scale and I was a bit afraid that I had hit a plateau and/or Core/Simply Filling wasn't going to do the trick for me. I'm so happy I was wrong :) This is the lightest I have been in MONTHS! I have about 10 pounds to go until I am at my goal weight.

Breakfast:

  • Scrambled eggs with 1/2 piece American cheese and ff milk, roasted potatoes (with olive oil, rosemary, salt and pepper), 1/2 sliced banana (0.5 WPA for the cheese)

Lunch:

  • Piece of green pepper

Snack:

  • Edamame with salt

Dinner:

  • 2.5 glasses red wine (5 WPA)
  • Sushi (12 WPA- I'm guessing here)
  • Miso soup (1.5 WPA)

Later that night:

  • 2 light beers (4 WPA)

So, it's safe to say that I used over my WPAs for the week, again. But hopefully the progress the rest of the week won't be completely over-run by having a little fun on the weekends.

The weekends are hard for me, because when you are out with a group of people and you are sharing (like at sushi) it's hard to eat only the healthy things. I haven't figured out exactly how to deal with this yet, but I like to enjoy my weekends and when that means going out to eat with friends, I am not going to stress out over it. That's one of the reasons I switched to Core/Simply Filling in the first place. I didn't like the stressing out over points and obsessing over food choices. It made eating not so fun. And I like eating :)

Daily WPA used: 23 (yeah that's a lot- I'm really hoping I am way over w/ my estimation on the sushi)

Weekly WPA used: 53 (umm 18 over what I was supposed to have)
