Weight Watchers Update: Week 8

Starting Weight: 164 / Current Weight: 157.5 / Goal Weight: 150

So, I have 4.5 weeks to lose 7.5 pounds. That was the goal – to drop the weight by my friend Josh’s wedding. I’m not entirely positive that it will be happening. However, I’m still trying to keep positive about it. Last week was the first prolonged trip I’ve been on since starting Weight Watchers, and I found it to be quite challenging.

While I was at Montreat, breakfast, lunch and dinner were all served via buffet. And while I thought I was putting small(er) portions on my plate, once you went through the whole line and had tried a little bit of everything (that being my problem…) it was still a lot of food. And it was very hard to try and figure out points there. And I wasn’t able to get a whole lot of exercise while there.

We went to the gym yesterday and are going again today – but tonight I leave for another trip and I’m gone until Sunday night. And then Monday morning will be the weigh-in. I’m going to try and be better this week, so we’ll see how that goes. I’m finding it very difficult to “get back on the horse” as far as exercise and being very religious about counting points.

So, here’s to yet another week…it’s been awhile since I’ve actually LOST weight during a week…it’s either been gaining it slowly back or maintaining…and I’d love to be able to maintain a weight – just hoping for something less than 157.5.

I’m using Weightbot. It’s pretty cool. And only $1.99.

I joined a gym with a personal trainer I meet with weekly – that’s made me shed inches (not necessarily pounds since I’m gaining muscle). I think it helps to have someone push you. Maybe you’re gaining muscle at the gym?

I’m guessing being the Wente Vineyards concierge is not going to help with this endeavor: 5 ounces of wine = 120 calories.
