Weight Watchers Week 4

Hello everyone! I hope that you had a great week. Thank you for your terrific suggestions regarding the kids party. I took every single one of them into account and am pleased to say that I coped well with the temptations. I had a protein packed snack prior to attending the party, so that I wasn't ravenous upon arrival. I had banked my Flex Points for this very occasion and treated myself to a small chocolate cupcake, which was delicious! I stuck with veggies and fruit for the remainder of the party. For the first time in a long time, I felt that I was in control of my eating. I didn't feel guilty for eating the cupcake. I knew that it was still within my points range and that allowed me to enjoy it even more. I want to stress again how flexible the WW program really is. From dining out, to attending kids parties, it is flexible and works with you. Despite a busy week, I was able to squeeze in exercise and am now able to walk for 35 minutes as a time and am feeling strong and healthy.

Now for my stats!

Current weight: 141 lbs

Lost: 2 lbs

It has been one month since I started Weight Watchers and I am really feeling terrific. I have lost a total of 10 lbs and my BMI has dropped from 27 to 25. I went shopping for a few new outfits to reward myself! I am well on my way to reaching my 10% goal. I can expect my weight loss to slow down from this point on and I will be checking in with you every 2 weeks. My challenge for the next weeks will be staying on track while entertaining visitors! I have family from abroad that will be staying with us and this means cooking, cooking and more cooking. If anyone has any tips, please feel free to share them!
