Another success?

So my weigh in this morning went really well. Down 2.7 pounds. I gotta say I was floored as I had another bad eating weekend. I went to a party where I ate really good but bad for me food (including a second helping!) and cake. I was in a points deficit of 5 points! So clearly I do better when I use the flex points. I'm not complaining I do find that more manageable  Sometimes I find it hard to eat all my points so I guess I should focus on healthy foods that have some good points values. I'm going to admit here I am not a good breakfast eater, so once I change that and start eating breakfast I'm sure my points will be easier to obtain. Once I loose weight and my points go down I'm sure the flex points will be needed!

First Gain

So despite doing what I thought was well this week. I gained 1.3 pounds.

Go figure! Last week I eat over points. This week I knew I was going to have a weekend of eating out so I budgeted points and made what I thought were smart decisions. I went to bed feeling confident as I didn't binge. I stayed within points and I even exercised once.

It feels like a slap in the face. But I'll just keep trucking on with it. Maybe next week will be a bigger loss. I'm still on track for my 20 pound goal so I won't worry about it too much.
