Weigh IN Monday...

I just don't understand it! I have been good. I eat within my point range. I rarely use my extra points- at least not everyday, but some days I am hungrier than others. I went to weigh in today and I gained 6 ounces... Their scale is different from my scale at home. My mom says I look like I've lost, but I think she just says it to say it.

I know I am not drinking enough water. Thats a problem I know, I started working out. Someone told me today that I shouldn't weigh in right after I workout. Maybe that was the issue? Oh I don't know. 14 days and I am discouraged because everyone else I hear is losing 2-3 pounds. It's just so frustrating to me sometimes. I try to eat better and healthier and the pound just don't come off!

I keep reading all these articles about drinking water and it seems they all insist, that being overweight you should be drinking half your body weight in water. For me that is 120 ounces. Is that too much? I'm lucky id I drink 32oz, let alone 120oz!

Today's workout:
30 minutes cardio- recumbent bike
50 crunches2
2 sets of several reps of 10-12 arm weights.

Last night I but a chicken taco chili in the crock point. 5pp for 1 1/4 cup serving. It was delicious! I enjoy cooking new things. I'm looking for a recipe for next weeks cooking adventure, maybe not the crock pot this time though.

I don't know what to do, the woman at weight watchers said that maybe the points system doesn't work for me and that I should try the simply filling approach. I just don't know. I want to see results, and I see all the people who don't workout losing weight, and I'm struggling. I guess my body just isn't made like everyone elses. I have to find another approach to this. I refuse to gain anymore weight. I want to lose this. I never thought this would be a goal of mine, but I just want to be 199. I have seeing 2 hundred anything on the scale. I see in pictures where I've put on so much weight and I hate it.

I need to figure something out. I need to make changes.

  1. I still like the idea of watching what you eat... maybe shifting what you consume, perhaps eating more fruits and vegetables would help... but whatever you do, don't get discouraged... it is a true lifestyle that includes mental well-being... stay focused and stay in belief that you will reach your goals...
