I don't know what is wrong with me some days! I started the day off right with a good 3 mile walk.
I did well eating until my kids came home from school then I just wanted to eat everything. I tracked it and went over my dailies. I did eat a bit less for dinner, but I am still over for the day.
I will pick myself up and dust myself off with another good walk tomorrow morning and hopefully the peace of mind to make better food choices.
I earned 7pp today and reached 131%.
Tomorrow needs to be better in the food department. Even if I maintain this week, I do not want to gain!
Day 45...Not so bueno...
Onto Day 46...

Day 44...
I took the weekend of off counting pp this weekend. I did write down what I was eating throughout the day, and I am going to consider I used all of my 49 weeklies.
Yesterday and today I got in a lot of good activity. Yesterday I earned 5pp and reached 117%. Today I have already earned 7pp and reached 138%...and the night is still not done even though it is already almost 9pm.
Today was a long, busy day. I made breakfast for everyone, went to the swapmeet with my husband and son and walked around, then went shopping and to lunch with my daughter, then went shopping for flowers with my husband, daughter, and mom, then came home and planted flowers and a shade tree, then cooked dinner, then ate dinner, then cooked my husband's lunch, then did lunch, then did laundry. Needless to say I am exhausted. I have yet to take a quick shower, put away some more laundry, and read with my daughter.
With that said...Day 44...Success!
Onto Day 45 and a great on plan week!

Day 43...Weigh In...
Down 3.2 for a total loss of 69...so excited! Now I just have to keep this momentum going!
So far I have earned 4pp and reached 104%. I walked to the meeting this morning...the weather was perfect...chilly and breezy!
Went to a party for one of my daughter's friends...I ate a very little and skipped the cake...yeah me!
I have tracked every bite today and used quite a few of my weeklies.
Tracking and activity are the keys and I am using them!
Day 43...Weigh In...Success! Eats...Success! Activity...Success!

Day 42...
Today started at 6:15am...I could have slept in because my daughter is still on Fall Break and my son starts school later, but I was done. I am not quite sure how to sleep so my arm doesn't hurt so the past few days it has been best just to get up and get the day started.
I talked to my son at 6:30am about waking up...he asked for more time...I went back at 6:45am...he asked to sleep until 7am. I talked to him at 7am and told him he needed to get in the shower because I was not going to wake him up again. I thought he got in the shower...apparently he did not because when I asked him if he was ready to go at 7:40am...he came flying out of his room in panic mode. When I asked what he had been doing he replied with "sleeping". He took a 30 second shower, got dressed, abd we were out the door. He was on time but stressed out. I am glad he doesn't like to be late for, or miss, school. Both of my kids are the same and it lets me know they care about school!
After I dropped my son off at school I ent for another good, hilly, walk. 3 miles in about 50 minutes. I felt so good when I was done.
It was a good eats day as well!
ActiveLink...9pp160%...Woo Hoo!

Days 40 & 41...
Two great WW days...in a row!
Yesterday I reached 176% and earned 11pp...and I stayed within my dailies to boot!
*My highest % yet!
Today I have made it to 141% and earned 8pp and the day is not over. I did use 3pp extra.
Yesterday morning I powered through a 3 mile hilly walk.
Today my daughter and I powered through a 5 mile walk with only one hill.
Even though I have eaten some extra pp this week, I am hoping by Saturday morning I have done enough for the scale to show a loss. I am not looking for big numbers, just lower numbers than last week...as losing each week is my new goal regardless of how much.
Tomorrow will be another busy day. I am going to take another good walk first thing in the morning, then I have to take my mom to the chiropractor, then I have to drive to the valley to pick up a prescription for my mom's friend. I am planning on having lunch before I go to the valley so I don't need to eat out. I will also pack a small snack (just in case) and plenty of water.
I know tomorrow can be another successful day if I make it one!

Day 39...Activity-Less...
Today was a frustrasting day. My arm, shoulder, and neck are all out of whack...grocery shopping (not even major grocery shopping) almost put me over.
I want to exercise. I want to move my body. I want to release some horribly built up stress.
Tomorrow my son has school and my daughter doesn't. If I can put my gym shoes on without pain, and it is not 80 degrees by 7am, I will go for a walk...all by my lonesome to clear my head.
Today was a super WW eating day. I stayed within my daily pp and met all of my healthy guidelines.
Activity...not so bueno. It is almost 7pm and I am only to 44%...I think this is probably the least I have ever moved in any given day. My lack of movement wasn't even relaxing...it was frustrating. I feel so antsy like I just need to get out of the house and DO something.
Hoping for a good walk tomorrow...we'll see come morning. If it is too hot, but my feet don't hurt, I will go to the gym and utilize the treadmill even though I prefer to walk outside.
Day 38...Food...Success...Activity...Fail. Hoping tomorrow both are successful!
Onto Day 39...

Day 38...Sand & Seaweed...
Last night I made it to 104% and earned 4pp on my ActiveLink. I think doing all that laundry was not a good idea because my arm was killing me all night and half the morning.
My mom, kids, and I made it to the beach. We have been to that particular beach many times over the years and I have never seen it look so bad! There was so much seaweed on the beach and in the water, the waves were very small, and they brought more sand than water each time they came into shore. My daughter and I walked / ran over to the other side of the rocks and there were big, beautiful waves and no sand in the water...much better. I would have liked to move our stuff over to the other side but my mom could hardly handle the walk in the sand to the original spot we landed in. I wish she could walk better, but I am glad she was able to go with us.
My arm really hurt last night and this morning. Once we were at the beach the pain was almost gone...so weird! We have been home for hours and it is still pretty good...so far!
I packed some healthy snacks and planned on stopping at Subway for lunch on the way to the beach. Since my son is rarely with us and he really likes In-N-Out, I thought it would be nice to treat him. My daughter does not like it so we stopped and got her some chili cheese fries. I should have had the same, but for some dumb reason I too had In-N-Out. I don't even like their food, but somehow end up eating it everytime we are there. I did not finish my fries, but did eat my burger. The iced tea wasn't even good to me...maybe it is in my head...who knows!?!?
On our way home from the beach we stopped and got frozen yogurt...always good. Since it was abour 4pm when we got home, we weren't really hungry for dinner so instead we had a bit of this and that...not a good idea after a trip to In-N-Out.
Tomorrow is a new day to make better choices. I WILL write myself a note to remind me that I do not need to eat food I don't like. Sometimes I am just tired of the good days, bad days, good days roller coaster that I seem to ride more than not when it comes to food. I will not give up and will continue to carry on...even through the bad days that seem to overflow with bad decisions.
Even though both kids have off tomorrow, I am going to get up early and try to put my gym shoes on and go for a good walk before the sun gets its heat on. Today was about 85 at the beach and 105 at home. Both too hot for me...
So far today I have earned 1pp and reached 79%...not sure how close I will get to 100%...
Day 37...Activity...Success...Food...Fail!
