Pounds lost this week - 1.4
Pounds lost total - 3.4
Pounds to go - still not saying
Confessions:
I am saying yahoo because I honestly didn't think I would lose anything this week. I have quite a few confessions, like eating most of the leftover homemade rolls I made for the Enrichment Dinner I was in charge of last week. And to top off the weekend, Sister Clark brought over one of her "Cherry Cheese Bread Braids" on Sunday night to thank Dad and I "for all we do!" Of course I couldn't pass that up, but I only had one piece. She also gave me her recipe, so I will share it sometime when we are all feeling good about our weight loss/gains!
What worked for me:
We had tons of leftover green salad from the Enrichment Dinner, so I had that ready to go every night to supplement my dinner! I added lots of other good veggies, and I really enjoyed that!
I bought some WW Toffee Ice Cream Bars, really good for 2 points! I get a little hungry in the late afternoon, and we have a jar of nuts, and one of chocolate covered raisins at work. I have been able to just eat a 1 point serving each day, so that has helped.
The other day we went to Emperor's Palace for lunch. I used to get the "two entree" plate, but this day I just got the bowl with half steamed rice and half veggies as the side, and Mushroom Chicken as the entree! I was feeling good about my choices and then I got my fortune from the cookie which I thought was really inspiring:
OVER-INDULGENCE HINDERS BODY & MIND
It is so true, because if you over-indulge in food, you feel lazy and tired, and when you are tired it is really hard to concentrate on anything. In addition, over-indulgence can cause guilt, which can really hinder your progress towards your goal!
Goals for this week:
I am still trying to get motivated to walk on my awesome treadmill! I need to drink more water, and keep cooking my mas quantities of veggies! Good luck this week to everyone!

Great job!! That's awesome that you found some good solutions to hungry times. I have to tell you I cracked up when you said you ate lunch at "Emperor's Parace" cause we used to prank call them and ask them for flied lice. Good luck with your goals!
