Weight...Loss?

Things are moving right along in that department. Slowly. 

S.L.O.W.L.Y as in-I've been doing WW for seven weeks and I've lost seven-ish pounds. I know that's the "healthy" rate of weight loss and I'm trying not to throw in the towel, but damn.

I really want chocolate cake. But 14 points for a slice of cake? That's nearly half of my daily points. 

Maybe on my birthday? 

Anyway, back to the "loss" yay! me! and all...that. 

I know there are things I could be doing to "speed up" the process. You know, like stopping the 9 pm fudge bar. Even eating dinner earlier (I totally agree Collyn!) would be better I'm sure. That last one I can definitely do...now that C is back to working nights I can eat dinner at four if I want! Yay! And I probably totally will since I'm always tired and pass out around 8:30 anyway.

Anyway. I'm doing this. It may be a lot slower than the way some people do it, but if I cut out that nightly 3 point fudge bar (which I always save 3 of my 32 points for thankyouverymuch) I know I'd go off the deep end and eat a whole chocolate cake one night, not just a freaking slice. I guess I feel like it staves off the craving just enough. 

It's just satisfying...enough.

So I'll keep doing it. And not feel guilty.

Know what else I'm doing? Working my butt off at the rec center 4 days a week. I feel better. At least I think I do. Or did. Or something. 

Until my doctor put it in my brain that I could be sick. What a buzz kill.

Geez.

That's what's up this week. I'd really like to hit 10 pounds by my birthday, I can drop 2 and a half pounds in a little under 2 weeks, right?

I'm officially making that a short-term goal.
