Ok so I started weight watchers on this past Monday and  I have been doing well. My mind is right and I am into my points and such. I knew tonight we were going out and so I prepared my eating all day so I was ready. BUT tonight when I calculated the points (the best I could) and I was so sad.  I knew when I was easting (the egg rolls and one slice of pizza) what I was doing and I knew I had enough points left over. But man once I got home i was so sad and disappointed in myself. I am still Ok with my points for today.. I maybe have 5 left and it is 11:30PM but I was sad.

My FI he is so encouraging and was like "Babe it is one day, you did so well, you prepared for it, it is ok."  But I wish I would have had a salad. He doesn't understand that although it was within my allotment I was still slightly disappointed. Well he does but he doesn't. he is just supportive. Maybe I didn't prepare enough mentally for it...



Ok I am getting over it the more I write so that is a great sign. I know tomorrow is a new day!!! Thanks for reading!

Girl, I am a lifetime member of WW's.  At my biggest, I was about 200 lbs.  I lost 20 lbs on my own.  I joined Weight Watchers at 180 lbs.  I lost 30 lbs with them. I am at 152 lbs now.  I go back a forth between 150 and 158. 

  I know how you feel about the points.  Do what your fiance said.  Relish in the fact that you did not go over your points and that you planned it.  What I love about them is that they give you enough to allow for a bit of indulgence.  If you beat yourself up because you were not perfect in eating, this mindset will not last and weight loss will be harder.  Be surprised at the points and then vow to be a bit more careful next time.  And let that be that.  Like you said, tomorrow is a new day.  If you ever need any support, email me at crmallett@hotmail.com.  You can also find my on FB too.

BTW, I don't work for them.  lol.  I just really believe in the program they have.

I have been on WW since Jan. of this year and have lost 56 pounds. You are okay...you didn't go over your points. They are there to eat. Even if you "tap" in to your extra 49 it's also ok. You are suppose to eat all of your points...so never feel bad for eating them all. You are doing awesome simply because you are aware of your points at all times..it's easy to go out to dinner and say "I'll calculate the next meal"...and just not worry about it. I believe you did awesome!

Thanks guys!!! I am excited to see how I did this week. But I feel a lot better so that is one major thing for me! I had a day about two weeks ago where i just felt FAT .. It was a horrible day my clothes weren't right and I was hot and bothered.. I didn't like that feeling at all and I remembered I'd lost 19 lbs before on WW and so I decided to go back. Since Monday, I have been on top of my points and it has been easy but more importantly I have felt great! I love that feeling. It is like I feel lighter. Although I may have only lost a lb or an ounce I feel better.

Thanks!!
