I can't believe it has been a full week of blogging. Time is going by faster than I thought it would. Now while I have been blogging for a week, I have only been doing WW for 2 days. Yesterday went very well and I was so sure that today would be awful. I mean, you know how day 1 you are so pumped to do right and then comes day 2 and your steam has somewhat slowed down? That is what I pictured for today. Boy was I wrong!!!
Today I started work an hour earlier than yesterday, which means I was up and getting ready an hour earlier as well. So, I managed to squeeze in my cereal and turkey&toast (and coffee) between getting ready for work. (Big props to the Husby for helping me with the little one). I got to work and after about 2 hours I started to think about food. And not because I was hungry, but rather because the store was so empty and we were standing around for a bit. Luckily, (for both me and the store) business picked up. Before I knew it it was almost 2pm and I hadn't taken lunch yet! I clocked out and warmed up my SmartOnes and Soup.
Of course, as I sit in the rather small & cubicle like breakroom, an entourage of Chili's food comes filing in. It smelled so delicious and I watched as my coworkers pulled out club sandwiches and french fries, various creamy soups, and other fatty aromatic packed foods. I could feel my willpower being tested! But, I stayed strong and I dutifully ate my meal. I was full and satisfied (and left the breakroom as soon as I could!) I went back on the sales floor and continued the rest of my shift. My only real complaint of the work day? I have to get better shoes (still waiting on Crocs to resend a pair that was obviously stolen!). My feet are killing me...of course wearing wedges for 8 hrs (2 days in a row) will do that to you.
Tonight I baked some garlic herb chicken and the husby made some mashed cauliflower. It was so good and filling. I guzzled a little more water (ooh by the way, I need to drink some more), and kicked up my feet. Did I mention how much they hurt?! I calculated my points today and I still have about 10 left! And thats after having a half of a grape fruit and a bag of 100 cal popcorn. I am not miscalculating either, but it is due to the fact that I haven't been able to do midday snacks. I might make a quick smoothie and split it with the husby before bed.
I am off of work tomorrow and I am a little nervous about it. I know it is a great opportunity to work out, since my feet will be well rested by then. But I am so afraid that I will start to snack without realizing it. You know what I mean? I am going to focus really hard to only eat healthy options tomorrow so that even if I find myself snacking, it is not on anything bad for me. Wish me luck!
Oh and opinions please--- do you weigh yourself weekly? Daily? Every other day? I am one of those anxious weighers....
Until tomorrow! Share me with your friends! Tomorrow I will try to be a bit more interesting!
-with much hope and a lot of prayer
