Day 2 of Weight Watchers

Last night when I went to bed, I was starving and somewhat miserable so I decided I needed to change up my day and make it different. This morning when I got up I actually made myself breakfast. I don’t normally eat breakfast because I don’t make the time but by the time lunch rolls around, I am beyond hungry!! Anyway, so I made a whole grain English muffin with a tablespoon of peanut butter and a banana. I was hungry at lunch but I was able to eat a smaller portion of lunch and feel full. At lunch, I had leftovers from dinner the night before so I had a hot dog and a half as well as a 1/4 cup of baked beans. Yummy!! Around 2 I was ready for a little snack so I had a serving of Special Crackers with a Laughing Cow spreadable cheese. Also, Logan and I made a trip to Wal-Mart and I picked up some slim fast protein powder so I could add it to my milk. I cannot have the pre-made meal substitutes because I am lactose intolerant but when I counted all the points together, they were dead even (wohoo!) So around 4, I had a Slim Fast Shake. For dinner, Jenny made a lemon and herb chicken helper meal. It was delish and I was able to have a cup of it and it was only 3 points. At like 8:30, I was watching TV with Jenny and I got "the munchies" so I had an apple with some peanut butter.

So I know that sounds like a TON of food but actually, I only went over my point allowance by like 4 and I have 49 weekly points so now I am down to 45 weekly points but I won’t call this day a failure because I have not had a soda in 2 days and I have not had any fast food in 2 days. Fir me, this is quite an accomplishment.

Tomorrow is Wednesday so I always will be faced with fast food but if I watch my points and make smart choices, I will still be successful!!

One day at a time!!!
