Stats:
Last week: 150
This week: 150
Under normal circumstances I would be disappointed by my lack of weight loss. However, I find this plateau a victory. See, we were away in Vancouver all weekend celebrating a milestone birthday for Steve’s mom. There was insanely delicious food surrounding me for three days straight. I used up all of my Flex Points on Friday night so when Saturday morning came and I smelled bacon cooking in my mother-in-law’s kitchen I thought, “Well, I’m already a little over my Points; may as well make the entire weekend a write-off and start the day off right with two pounds of pig fat!” But I made myself aware of that inclination and decided to fight it. I poured myself bowl of multi-grain cheerios while everyone else ate bacon and buttered toast; I had a bowl of steamed rice when everyone else was eating sauce-soaked noodles at a Mongolian restaurant; while we watched a movie and everyone else ate baked goods I chomped on a high-fiber granola bar and some rice cakes. I am quite certain that I still went over my recommended Points this week but I feel proud of myself that I didn’t cave and eat the entire city of Vancouver.
Later, you weight watchers.

That’s a huge accomplishment. Way to go!
Good for you! I probably would have caved.
I have to tell you, I admire you for losing weight during the holidays! I’ve gained a little over the past few months, although not because of a baby, and I have told myself that I’ll start in January.
Good luck on the rest of your Weight Watchers journey!
This gives me hope. Keep up the good work so you can be my inspiration!
WOW. You ROCK! I would’ve caved too!
That is GREAT! Good for you for making such smart choices.
You are a superstar! And can I just say how HOT you looked in that dress on Friday night! You are a total babe Amanda! :P
P.S. Sorry I didn’t get to say goodbye, bye.
I am so impressed! I am one of those people who if I fall off the wagon just a little bit, I might as well leap! I started back onto the 5-Factor diet today and so far, so good.
One video I always look to for inspiration is:
