down 5.2 lbs total

ended the day with 7 unused points!

workout points

it's taken me a few days to get back on track. It's amazing how quickly one starts to slide when one just skips a few days. I revert right back to my bad habits. Yesturday was my best day this week. I only went over by 4 points. I've earned 39 workout points so I still came out even. My goal is to one day stop using my earned workout points since I know it would speed up weightloss. For right now though they are my saving grace.

Bad week

I gained 1.5 pounds. We went out of town and I didn't follow the plan at all. I ate whatever I wanted and I had a very upset stomach. I thought it wouldn't be hard to get back with the program but it really was. I seemed to have lost my momentum. Today I was 30 points over. That's a whole days worth of points! I used up almost all of my weekly bonus points in one day. MY STOMACH ACHES!

I don't even know why I kept eating. I wasn't hungry. It was like I couldn't stop.

I took the baby to the carnival to ride the Merry-go-round. I thought it would be a nice treat for us all to share a funnel cake. My logic was that one funnel cake a year was moderation. However, when I got home and looked up the points I discovered that half of a funnel cake is worth 16 points! Elora really enjoyed it but I felt very guilty.

Because I had messed up so bad I justified eating 4 oreo cookies and 1 cupcake. Cupcakes actually are pretty low on points but this one was a 4 pointer because it came from the store.

BAD BETH.

I am determined not to give in to that little voice telling me to quit.

Day 1

I am constantly trying to eat. I am not hungry, not remotely. I actually feel rather full. I am just a grazer. I eat out of habit
