Not just back on the wagon

I'm not just back on the wagon- I am driving it!

I weighed in yesterday to a 1.2lb gain adn I am sick of not losing consistantly anymore. I talked to my therapist and she thinks I have too many goals and I am feelign overwhelmed. So this week I am not drinking soda at home, I am going to try to move more and I will try to drink more water. But I did more. For at least 5 meals now (a day and a half) I have tracked everything Iate and stayed within my limit of alloted points. If I can keep this up this week, I am sure to see a loss on the scale next week. I am sure going snowboarding this weekend won't hurt either. So I guess I am newly motivated.

Temptations loom everywhere, but I already ignored the cupcake party at work yesterday and took an alternative entrance to the meeting this morning, where cinomin buns and other pastries were displayed.

I also picked up snacks for the meeting that I don't like and I have a pretty good idea for dinner. I feel real good and positive and happy to report it.

Good job, Jess! I don't know if I've told you how impressed I am with your progress, but I am! The biggest thing is to not feel like you might as well quit just because you've had a few bad weeks. It's amazing how much progress you can make with one good week and it will be over before you know it! And snowboarding burns a TON of calories! I don't know if I can even believe it, but most calorie counting websites say it's something like 500 calories per hour.
Have fun!
