Family Recap and Onward!
Ok, so I made it counting points (flex plan) while my family was here. I didn't go over my points (the good news) but I used my points on chips, cookies, and chicken nuggets (bad news). I missed my usual Tuesday night meeting and went Thursday instead (also figuring I'd have a better shot at losing with the extra days.) It was not to happen. I gained a half pound, even though I had been really really good from Tuesday to Thursday, and I exercised all week. The scale still knew what I ate over the weekend. So, it isn't always how many points you have but what you spent them on. I mean, one day I had eaten most of my points in the morning...starting out with Special K going all the way to potato chips and chocolate chip cookies.
But still, I expected a loss since I had stayed in my points, and didn't get it. There is nothing worse then going to your meeting, expecting a loss, and getting a gain. I couldn't stay for the meeting because it upset me so much. I was so angry at myself, I know better than to react that way, I'm not new to WW, I know what happens when you eat garbage.
So tonight is my usual meeting, hopefully all that crap has made it's way through my system and out! I'm back on Core, and very happy about it, I think I eat better on it. Last night I made a new recipe called Round Steak Bake from my Four Ingredient Cookbook. (I love to be simple) Round steak, potatoes, onion soup mix, and mushrooms. Bake for 90 minutes on 350 and there you go. I guess it was good since my husband went for thirds, LOL.
