Wins and Losses - weekend recap

Weigh in day = -2 Yeah!

So, I am totally excited that I lost 2 lbs. It makes every stomach rumble and "just say no" moment worth it. 2 lbs is great I'll take that any week!

So the loss was good, but honestly my weekend was not so good. It is easy to be good during the week. I plan my food, bring it to work and I have wha I have. No questions, no standing in front of the cabinet wondering what to eat. Also, I go to bed at a reasonable hour so there are no late night munchies. Finally, and probably most importantly as far as weight loss - there is no drinking! I think I associate the weekend with - time to relax, have a few drinks, no time commitments etc. The problem with that is that the drinks pack on the pounds, loosen the eating inhibitions and a week's worth of dieting can easily go down the drain! I didn't totally undo all of my good work. My food choices were fairly healthy, but still, what a waste.

I also went in to the weekend with ALOT of banked points - over 50. I think that mentally this gave me a free ticket to indulge. I need to manage this mindset better. Not quite sure how that one is going to go, but I'm going to work on it. My weekend journaling is non-existent so I guess I need to start there. I am pretty sure I blew through those 50 points by Sunday morning.

Okay - so there was good and bad for this last week. It is all a process and each week I am refining and improving. It's Monday, Day 8 - here we go again!
