Week #10 / 213 lbs

So I'm up a little.  At least it's just a partial pound.  Bo woke me up this morning at 4 o'clock and completely forgetting about having to weigh in a couple hours later, I drank two cups of coffee.  Can we blame the gain on the coffee??  I really should stop playing the blame game and take ownership.  I had a bad week.  In fact, I'm really surprised that I wasn't up a lot more.  I've been so busy unpacking that I never cooked a single meal all week.  Lunches all week were fast food and dinners were take out or delivered pizza.  And I joined right in.  I'm talking french fries, chicken sandwiches, full fat lattes, and everything else you can imagine.  And, I enjoyed it.  It was a little disturbing that every time I stepped on the scale, I hadn't gained any weight.  So I kept eating whatever I wanted.  Perhaps if the scale had shown a gain It would have been more discouraging and I may have stopped sooner.  But what's done is done, so on to week #11!

The first time I joined WW, I joined with my sister-in-law Jacque.  She and I dropped the weight so fast because we talked and text messaged with each other all day long.  We were great food police.  When I started this time, I did it alone.  I still lost weight, but it's just not as easy when I don't have anyone to share recipes and ideas with.  Jacque called me a couple days ago and asked if I wanted to do it with her again.  What a GREAT motivation to get back on the wagon. So, we officially started together today, and so far so good.  It's only 2 o'clock and I think we've already text messaged each other about what we're eating like one hundred times.  This will be very fun and I am very very excited to have someone to do it with again.

Till next time...
