Weigh In...226.0...Down 1.5 pounds with Aunt Flo in town...woo hoo!!!
Total since my restart on Jan 26, 2013...6.5 pounds.
Total since my original start on Feb 26, 2011...69.7 pounds. I am almost back to 70 and 13.3 away from my lowest back in December of 2011 and I have not seen this number on the scale since October of last year. I am so excited and really looking forward to another good week!
Today's exercise will be jumping on a trampoline with my daughter at a friend's birthday party.
Onto making Day 64 a good one!
We had a blast at the party...once I got my nerve up to step onto the trampoline! My daughter and I jumped for a good hour and a half. We drank a ton of water, I had a small slice of pizza, veggies, fruit, a small ham sandwich, and a few bites of cake. Everyone there was eating and eating and eating and I could have joined in, but decided to get back to jumping instead. I know I would not have had the nerve to do it before I started WW...and maybe not even this time last year. We had so much fun and I am going to try to fit in another trip to that place for my daughter and I. I tracked 100% on my phone during the party and was happy with my eats!

Days 61 ~ 63...
Day 61 (Wednesday) went well...much better than Tuesday. I walked in the morning and at night. I tracked 100% and only went over 2pp for the day...I even earned 11 activity pp!
Day 62 (Thursday) also went well. Due to lack of time I did not walk in the morning, but I did walk at track practice in the evening. I tracked 100%, only went over my food pp by 3, and I earned 10 activity pp for the day.
Day 63 (Friday) Today was BUSY!!! I took my kids to school, came home to finish my grocery list and check e-mail, went to the gym and did Zumba for an hour, and went to Wal-Mart, ran into a friend and decided to have lunch at McDonalds inside of Wal-Mart. I had a grilled chicken sandwich with BBQ sauce instead of mayo, a Diet Coke, and a banana. We talked and ate...my friend had fries and a fish sandwich, but I focused on my eats and they were delicious and guilt free! Since I saw her midway through my shopping, I went back for the rest of my items, went home to put them away quickly, went to my daughter's school to help, passed on juice, Peeps, and Moon Pies, and then went to Sam's Club with my daughter...we shared a pretzel...I did track the 7pp for it and it was worth every one. As I was unloading groceries at home my son called for a ride home. I closed the trunk, went to get him, came home unloaded the rest of the groceries, made him some sandwiches, put the rest of the groceries away, checked e-mail, and now I am ready to go make dinner. It has been a non-stop day, I have gotten alot done, tracked 100%, and still have 10pp for dinner which is totally doable. I have already earned 8pp for the day and still have some laundry and housework to do.
Tomorrow is weigh in. As of this morning I am up .5 pounds from last week. Aunt Flo is still in town, but I am hoping the scale will go down a bit by tomorrow morning so I can either maintain or lose a little. I feel like I am hitting my stride and really getting back to my old WW self...it isn't seeming like such a chore anymore.
Days 61 ~ 63...Success!
Onto Day 64...

Day 60...
Yesterday was eaty and I did not get in much activity...I only earned 1 activity pp for the day. Aunt Flo is in town and she brought pain with her this month. I tracked the first part of the day...pp and all...the second part of the day I wrote down what I ate, but did not weigh, measure, or calculate any pp. I also did not drink enough water. This morning I still wasn't feeling well, but I decided to take a walk anyway. I didn't do any hills but did manage to get in a good 42 minutes and about 2 1/2 miles. I am keeping my gym clothes on to use at tonight's track practice and to help deter me from eating too much throughout the day. I have been working way too hard on activity to defeat my entire purpose with unnecessary eating. Today I will do my best to track 100%, weigh, measure, and calculate pp.
Onto tackle my long to do list...

Day 59...Lots of Activity!
Yesterday was a good activity day for sure! It was also an eaty day...tracked 100%, but still struggling with eating more than I need to.
After I dropped the kids off at school I walked my regular hilly 3 mile loop. Before we left for track I rode my trike for a good 25 minutes around our block. I tried to get to the top of our street about 15 times...I am only 2 1/2 houses away from the top, I got alot further than before! At track practice I walked another 3 miles.
During the day I had bouts of wanting to eat just to eat...sometimes I ate and sometimes I resisted the urge. After practice my husband wanted to go get tacos. I had two mini tacos then decided I needed 1/2 chicken sandwich, some cottage cheese, and some jelly. I am much better off not starting to eat and then I don't need to worry about stopping. I did track all the madness and will strive to do better today.
I am taking today as a rest day from activity because I have not taken any full rest days in awhile. We do not have practice tonight, and even though it was perfect walking weather this morning I decided my body needs a break...just for one day though!
Onto taking care of business and making Day 59 a good one!

Days 55 ~ 58 & Weigh In
By the end of the night yesterday, I earned 14 activity pp! I really love that I have someone nice to talk to while I walk at my daughter's track practice...the times goes sooo fast! This morning the scale was the same as yesterday even with my extra eats. On Saturday I was 230.5, Sunday 228.5, Monday 228.5, Tuesday 228.5, Wednesday & today 227. I feel good about my activity, tracking, water intake, and most of my eats.
This morning I decided to come back home after taking the kids to school instead of going for a walk. I will get in a good walk tonight, so I am not worried. I made taco meat for tonight's dinner, cut up onions and tomatoes, did the dishes, took my daughter to the doctor for a recheck of her ear which is good thankfully, took my daughter back to school, and now it is 10am. I am off to take my mom the dentist and hopefully make it back in time to help at my daughter's school today so I can go to Zumba tomorrow...we'll see!
The day ended well with a good walk at track practice and pretty good eats.
Friday I made it to Zumba and was having kind of an off day. When I fight with my dad it makes me feel awful...like my spirit is broken. He gets over it right away and carries on. I managed to eat fairly well, tracked everything 100% and earned 8 activity pp for the day.
Weigh In...I lost 3 pounds!!! I was so excited! This morning, Sunday, I am still down and weighed the same as yesterday.
My daughter did great at her track meet yesterday and she and I stuck to what we brought to eat. My husband ate some of the sandwiches we brought and bought a hot dog and a Coke. When we got home we were all tired. I took a nap and then got up to make everyone dinner. My daughter and I had eaten when we got home and I was not hungry for dinner. Later I was hungry and should have known better than to eat when I am so tired. I ended up using quite a few weeklies, but I still tracked 100%.
This morning I slept in until 8am and got busy with house work. I am on my way to drop of some items at the Goodwill, stop by the bank, and go to Sams and Walmart.
Days 55 ~ 59...a little eaty, a lot of activity, 100% tracked...I'm going to call them successful!

Day 54...
I started the day with an hour of Zumba...I really love it. and had forgotten how good I feel when I am at the gym, away from home, and not thinking about the bazillion worries that are constantly running through my mind. I am going to try and switch the day I help at my daughter's school from Friday to Wednesday or Thursday so I can go to Zumba on Friday as well which would give me 4 gym days a week!
After the gym I went to the valley to pick up my mom's sewing machine. It was lunch time and I opted for Burger King. I had an Original Chicken Sandwich with BBQ sauce instead of mayo and a value size order of onion rings. I took my time, ate slowly, enjoyed every bite. I sat inside rather than driving thru and realized that I rarely eat fast food or drive thru...progress for sure!
After lunch, I headed back up the freeway. I found some cute socks for my daughter at Kohls and found her track socks at Big 5. I forgot to stop and get longer laces for my new tennies so I will have to do that tomorrow. When I got home it was already time to pick up my daughter. I still had my gym clothes and shoes on and it was cool outside so I walked. We came home and had snack...I didn't really need to eat, but did anyway, but I tracked it and that is still my main goal.
Tonight we have track practice and I will walk with my buddy and her baby. I have eaten many of my activity pp, but it is ok. Again...the goal is to track 100%, not to worry about going over my pp.
So far I have earned 5 activity pp, I am sure I will get beyond 10pp by the end of the night!
Day 54...Delicious lunch, 100% tracking, and awesome activity!

Day 53...
Frustrating day.
Tired of arguing over nothing.
Tired of being the target.
Ate more than I needed to during the late morning and early afternoon.
Tracked eats, and BLT's, 100%.
Walked 90 minutes at track practice.
Day 53...Glad it is over.
