Stay on my Weight Watchers points for a whole week

Hadn’t been on 43Things in a few months, but I’m back, and I’m back because of this goal.

I’ve been tracking my data VERY carefully. Can’t quite make my target points, but I’m getting close. Yesterday I was over, but about half the time in the last two weeks I’ve hit the target. This is very difficult for me.

Now, I’m planning to do it ‘One Day At a Time.’ Today, so far, I’ve had six (6) points.

My goal is to stay on target for TODAY.

I’m giving up on this because I think WW kept me to focused on weight loss when what I really need is muscle mass. Dieting when already at a ‘normal’ weight without consistent exercise resulted in the same shape and muscle not fat loss. I’ve been kind of dissatisfied with my Curves gym so I’ve decided to try a personal trainer. I’m hoping with a trainer I will learn new ways to exercise and be active, switching my focus from dieting to toning. Wish me luck :)

Okay I’m back at it. I was a little discouraged when I had lost nearly 4 pounds over 3 weeks and then went off for a weekend because I went on a retreat with set meals. When I came back I was 3 pounds heavier. I’m going to try again but not weigh everyday. I know its wrong but I do it anyway it kind of like a mental roller coaster. The lows aren’t fun but something needs to be said for the highs.

Four weeks have gone by and I still haven’t done this. When I first started WW I was able to do this easily and even had more points left over at the end of the week. For the last few weeks I make it till the middle of the week and then start eating off the diet by the weekend. Part of me does it because eating out is one of the things the family and I do for fun. One weekend it was dim sum another weekend its something else. I know I use food as an entertainment. But I’ve been trying new WW recipes and am cooking a lot more and learning new things in the kitchen. Tomorrow is Monday, I’m going to keep this goal before me until I get it. Sometimes I think its not that important, that exercise should be more important but I don’t like having an unfinished goal. Besides checking in each week is keeping me accountable. I purpose to record when I miss it and why. Hopefully, that uncomfortable feeling will spur me on to succeed.

My goal this week is to stay “on point” with weight watchers.
