Week 4 - Megan

Weight lost: 1 lb
Total weight lost: 5 lbs
Weight to go: 10-15 lbs (I might change my goal)

Confessions:
Candy is the devil! I don't think weight watchers candy counts when you eat 3 bags in one week! YIKES! I can't control my sweet tooth, so I am not buying any more candy! I will however still buy the baked goods, they satisfy me more, so I can limit myself. I am also having a hard time with hunger, I think I need to be eating veggies when I feel hungry. I did not get any exercise in this week. I have been bogged down doing stupid etsy dolls. I am doing 3 sets tonight and tomorrow and then I am pulling them off the internet for a while, they take up too much time and I have a lot of other things I need to be working on! I also didn't eat much fruits/veggies or drink water. Boo, this was a bad week!

What worked for me:
Sticking to the soups and double fiber bread. I am getting a little sick of soup though, any suggestions???

Goals for next week:
I bought a good amount of fruits and veggies today, I am going to cut them up and have them accessible in the fridge. I am going to try to remember to fill my water cup in the mornings, then hopefully just keep it with me throughout the day. I am hoping to get 1 exercise in this week, trying to be realistic! I think more than anything right now, I really want to tone up. I was down to 125 a year after I had Kate, but I still felt fat, because my body was so flabby, so basically I have changed my goal weight to 130 but I want to burn fat and build muscle. The End.

Week 3 - Megan

Ok, first off, where is everyone else???

Weight lost: 3lbs
Total weight lost: 4lbs
Weight to go: 16lbs

Confessions:
Jason and I got some fast food last week, I didn't think too much of it, then I went to the restaurants website (after eating my meal) and calculated the points...37 freakin points for one meal! I was astonished! Never again will I assume fast food isn't that bad for you! Also Mother's Day was not my best. Jason got me an ice cream cake and it was gone by Tuesday! OOPS! Darn that inner child! Don't worry, she's on restriction for bad behavior!

What worked for me:
The soups are still working like a charm! Also the WW desserts are a must for me, I am such a sweets hound, and would be in big trouble if it weren't for those! Jason and I also took the kids for a walk one afternoon, I pushed the stroller and we walked 1 2/3 miles. It wasn't the best exercise, but it was better than none!

Goals for this week:
I really need to be eating more fruits and veggies, so I'm going to try and incorporate those into my meals or have them for snacks this week, also I need to start drinking water and I am hoping to exercise twice this week.

Week 2 - Megan

Weight lost: 1lb
Weight to go: 19lbs

Confessions:
Ok, so I did just fine if I stayed at home all day and didn't have any company over. I fooled myself thinking, "oh, weight watchers is easy." Of course it is if you have NO temptation, but the second there is a cupcake in front of your face or a plate of warm cookies (or tub of frozen ones for that matter) forget about it! I just have to tell myself, one day at a time, even one meal at a time... if I screw up, just start over. No point in wasting all the good days I had for one crap day. I did not work out, but really hope to get a few work outs in this week!

What worked for me:
PLANNING, PLANNING, PLANNING. If I know ahead of time what I am going to be eating and when, it is much easier. I am a huge fan of the soups, they are convenient and yummy! I need to be drinking more water though.
