WEIGH IN 4/17/11

Official Weight in at WW was 164.2.  So I am down 6.8 lbs.  It is going slow but steady not quite the 2 lbs a week that I want but it is going down. I had a very difficult week last week wanted to just eat what I want & stop this whole thing. I fought it tooth & nail & won & lost weight this week even w/ eating more Junk than what I should have. So What do I do today??? I eat why outside of my weekly points. I ate 20 of them yesterday & today I had burger, fries & a king size Hershey bar. SO that wasn't good. And this is the part where I normally fall off the wagon & just go w/ it & keep on eating junk.  Lately when trying to lose weight I get to 164 & stop I REALLY want to see 163 my goal for this week is to hit my 5% goal that is 9lbs lost. But now I have some make up work today. 

Even thinking back to when I lost w/ LA weight loss I would have a big splurge day or two after weigh in & then I would spend the reset of the week trying to lose the two pounds I gained & the two I am supposed to lose for that week. I often wonder how I would do if I didn't splurge like that each week. My plan this week was to divide up my weekly points over the whole week so I have some everyday but now if I count what I ate tonight I am probably negative points & I have to go to the gym to make up for it.  That is a nice redeeming thing they offer w/ WW. You can make it balance out so to speak. If you go negative you can earn some activity points & that can take you out of the hole.  I am planing on going to the gym tomorrow but I am pretty out of shape so I don't know how much I should push myself. I think I will try the elliptical instead of the treadmill tomorrow & see how it goes. My heart rate always gets to high on the elliptical the machine starts yelling at me MAX HEART RATE MAX HEART RATE!!! I don't feel as though my heart is breaking out of my chest but it freaks me out & I can't do much w/o it getting to high. Which tells me just how out of shape I am. 

So my challenge this week is to not quit even though I blew it BIG time today I am to prove that there is a way out of my mistakes from today and not let it get to me. I have been trying to focus on what I will look like at my goal weight & I can't picture it.  I have never made it to a goal weight. When I lost weight & got down to 130 in 2002 my goal weight was 125 when I got down to 140 in 2006 my goal weight was 130. Now to get life time membership at WW I need to maintain 124 for 6 weeks. My goal as I set out this time was only 130 again but I won't get lifetime if I only make it to 130 but we'll see how I feel when I get there & how long it takes me to get there. I want to be disciplined & really see where this can take me. I have kept the diet for the last 3 weeks but still eating my chocolate & eating out. I wonder what would happen if I ate a little better too. I am only telling a few people about my weight loss because of the fear of failing because I've started so many times & failed. I am hoping this is the time I will go all the way.
