Wednesday we had tickets to the Indigo Girls so before we went I ate badly, too much bread and had also had big cocktail. Then I was just sort of in the screw it mode the rest of the week. I skipped working out twice as well because I was so tired from staying up waaaay past my bedtime.
On the positive side I did say no to the desserts at work this week as there was two days were the office was overflowing with cakes and cookies. I chose not to partake in any of it.
All in all at my weigh in yesterday I had gained 2oz. Not a lot but it is time for a reality check about how much I really want this. I know I do want my old body back but am I really wiling to do the work? I believe I am so I am getting back on track before the wheels come off the track completely.

It's not easy doing this! UGH!

Hey Ezee,no its not easy,I garentee you I have fallen off the wagon a fue times..all I can say is just do the best you can on any given day.This past week was a bummer about working out..I havent been to the gym at all you can bet monday I will be back at it.Other than weight loss I now am realiseing I need the endorphine rush to boost my energy and keep my mind sharp,with out this I tend to be a lot sluggish and off center the longer I dont go work out...I really hate the feeling that comes with out the rush...I get the feeling like I have slept way to long..yucky feeling.

I had a hankering for something chocolate-y tonight so we ran out to Wal-Mart to pick up a few things and I grabbed a box of WW dark chocolate raspberry bars. Talk about YUM!

Only 2 points!!!

OMG Jelli! They are ADDICTIVE. I'm cheap too so the fact that there are 12 in a box for the same price as 6 of the giant fudgesicles is pretty awesome too. I can see these becoming a staple on the "favorite snack" list!

Have you tried the Skinny Cow chocolates yet? They are sooo good (kinda pricey). They are 3 (heavenly crisp) and 4 (dreamy clusters) WW points, the portion size of a regular candy bar, and with the dreamy clusters (which are like a 100,000 Grand bar) I can eat 1/2 a serving and have my candy fix filled.

PURE! I haven't tried those yet but I think I'll add them to the pile the next time I run out of the WW ones

I've noticed a lot of them contain malitol and will probably plan to eat them at home because the last thing I ate with malitol in it was a piece of "sugar free" Russel Stover candy and I farted enough to fill a hot air balloon!

Does anyone here do Schwan's? I now live in a very rural area and the grocery has very limited choices by way of frozen food and what they do have is not very healthy for you. They do Schwan's delivery here and am thinking about doing it but don't know what is good/good for you and what's not.

I have never done it but have always been curious about it. I'm trying to do more unprocessed food but you've made me want to go sneak a peak at their website

I don't use Schwan's, but I remember my grandma doing so. Here's a link to their site and I noticed they have a Live Smart Healthy Food section.
