This week’s statistics:
Beginning Wii Weight: 223.8 (My heaviest ever after this summer.)
Wii Weight on 2-18-14: 205.5 (a loss of .6)
Total: 18.3 pounds LOST
Weight Watchers on Initial Weigh In: 224
Weight Watchers on 2-11-14: 209.2 (a loss of 1.2)
Total: 14.8 pounds
So…it’s going down a bit. The lowest Wii weight this week was 204.4, which is the lowest I’ve been since 2010. (Once I hit 200, then I’m moving in 2007 territory). But mostly I’m skirting around 205.5, give or take a pound.
While I didn’t come in at exact points last week, I did a pretty good job staying close. I’m really working it this week. My thinking is to make sure my snack food is smaller and healthier, and eaten only when I need it (which is pretty much what I’m doing right now). I’m also going to make a concerted effort to keep more accessible veggies around the house.
The culprit in my life continues to be eating out. We eat out a lot. We often leave late from town, or don’t have a lot of zip. Actually, eating at home is quite a treat for us! Ironically, since I am now attending my Weight Watchers meeting after school, it’s another day I eat out.
People lose weight when they eat out. It’s a matter of what you eat, and how much. So, it’s not as big a deal as it seems. It’s harder to get variety, though, in veggies and fruits.
I’d like to make 201 by the end of this month.
Ah, plateaus. How I hate them. Keep at it! Dunno if I’ve asked this before, but have you tried packing bento box lunches? They’re a nifty way to control portion size.
I have a bento box and do use it on occasion. I am pretty good about portion size. Weight Watchers is big into portion size training.
