Much Better...

Today was a much better day  - I'm under 2 points and I didn't have any weird hunger. I was VERY hungry on my way home from work, but I ate a beef jerky strip & that helped a lot. Then tonight I was feeling kind of hungry & had 4 points left, so I ate a piece of toast with Laughing Cow Cheese. We'll see how tomorrow goes. It's Friday, but that's no reason to lose my mind in a bag of M&Ms or something!

Lesson Learned

Well, THIS was quite a day. Sigh. As you can see in my notes I thought I'd reward myself for my good WI last night. And I didn't even enjoy it! Lesson learned. I hope. At least I tracked everything & tomorrow is a new day.

Notes
9:00 I have GOT to quit celebrating victories with food. Ugh!
2:00 OK, apparently the pancakes have totally derailed my day - & now I actually feel sick. Blech. Let's salvage this day!

Weigh In Day!

Starting weight: 209
Loss: 3.2
New weight: 205.8

Woo hoo! If I lose this much per week I'll be needing new clothes by Valentine's Day. Heh. I know this will slow down - it always does for me. And that's ok - I'm in this to change how I eat, however long that takes. And lose about 70 pounds while I'm at it.

Today was a weird food day. I stayed within my points, but I felt kind of low level famished all day. Not sure why. I think it might be my diet soft drink - the caffiene in it maybe. I might try NOT having one in the morning & see how I feel. Sometimes I just feel that way for no good reason (it's not hormonal this time).

Here's my journal:
