Weigh-in Wednesday

Hi all!  Another rough week for me ? I didn?t get to work out at all, unless you count shoveling the 18 inches of snow that we got, pulling three little kids around on sleds and making a massive snowman.  So, I?m holding at 149 this week.  My goals are remaining relatively the same - the water thing is really helping to get me to drink more and fill me up before I eat.  Also, I have like 5 minutes to write this and I didn?t get a chance to find a recipe, so I?ll have another one next week!  Good luck this week!

My goals for this week are:

My current weight: 149   My goal weight: 125   Pounds to go: 24

My weight loss goal for this week:  2 pounds

Exercise goal for this week: Walk outside or on treadmill twice, do exercise video twice

Dietary goal: Drink a glass of water before every meal.

Motivational tip: Do my best to skip the appetizers & desserts at parties this week.

Discussion topic:  How do you resist ?bad? eating when you are eating out?    

This is really tough for me ? I don?t get to eat out that often, so when I do, I tend to overdo it.  We do order in at least once a week, so while I try to order a salad or something more healthy, I usually end up snacking on the kids? fries or having a piece of pizza.

Hi! It was a tough one for me too and my wieght stayed the same - PMS and my little sister's 30th b-day party at me house so that included stress eating, PMS eating, wine!, and my mom brought a giant tub of Johnson's carmel popcorn form Ocean City.  I made a very serious dent in it that I instantly regretted.

Regarding eating out - we do not do that much anymore but that makes it worse b/c when we do or if we order out it feels like a "treat" and I usually go overboard :-(

This week I keep telling myself that as soon as Christmas is over I will start eating well/exercising again.  But this is the mentality that I have had for months!

I will add a recipe...here is a weight watchers chicken recipe that I have made a few times before and I thought it was good.  I will link to it here:

Balsamic Chicken with Mushrooms
