Weigh-In Day No. 16

It has been another great week.  I was hoping to be back at 260 before I left for my trip on the 12th. I have exceeded that currently, so any loss next week is just icing on the cake. ( Or padding for the cruise.)  Sometimes, I get so frustrated at myself that I basically wasted my time from the end of January until now.  This is exciting today, but the truth is, I was here 3 months ago and then just messed around.  Oh well, can't change that now.  I guess I should just look at it as at least I'm still trying.  I could be 20-25 pounds up in 3 months.  So, I guess still being here is a good thing.  In a way.

Anywho, today also marked my first weigh-in for Weight Watchers.  As with here, the loss was 4.8 lbs.  And I lost a daily point.  That's okay.  It's a good exchange for a lower weight in general.  The plan was pretty easy to follow this week.  I've done WW before with the original Points system so this hasn't been a huge adjustment.  It's hard to say how well I did on using my daily points because last Friday I had to have a wisdom tooth pulled on emergency notice.  As a result, my food for Friday-Sunday looked like "milkshake, refried beans, mashed potatoes, smoothie, ice cream"  Not exactly a model diet, but I did stay within my points each day.  I used 5 weekly points last week also. 

This week should be a better indicator.  But for now, yea for 4.8 lbs. gone!!
