The Skinny on Holly

Sitting on my couch and wishing the pounds away didn’t work, so it’s on to Weight Watchers

Day 7 of 53 April 9, 2008

Filed under: Spring Challenge, daily updates — holly @ 3:12 pm

Exercise:

I had a meeting at 8:30 am in my town, so I was able to get on the treadmill in the morning by getting up at 6:30. I did 18 minutes of run 1 min/walk 1 min. It’s a modified version of the runnersworld.com week 1 beginning program, but I didn’t want to overdo anything. It felt good despite the tough part of having to get out of bed to get on the treadmill.

Food:

Again, things were pretty good until dinner time. We had tacos. Yummy.

Breakfast:
I had a Thomas’ light whole wheat English muffin with blueberry jam (just a little bit), my usual DD coffee (Toasted Almond) with skim and splenda.

Snack:
PB Fib*r one bar and an apple

Lunch:
H*ealthy Choice steamer thing (chicken marinara) = 5 points. Those steamer meals are really good. I am putting it on my shopping list to get many more.
Diet Dr. Pepper.

As for my beverages for the day, I bought one of those new G*torades, the G2. I drank the entire thing over 2 days by mixing with ¼ drink and ¾ water. I can’t drink it straight up, I have to really water it down. This morning, I looked at the sodium content and decided to try ProP*l instead.

Snack:
2 of those WW peanut butter mini bars – so yummy.

Dinner:
I had 4 small tacos. Not so good, but dammit I wrote it down.

Weight:
I weighed myself this morning and think I’m down 2 lbs from last week, but I will use my Monday weigh-in WW weight at the official weight.

Hope everyone else is doing well!

Jocelyn! Your progress has been so amazing! Thank you for your tips. I hope we can help inspire each other to stay on course!

    I don’t really understand the ww point system but I still think your doing awesome. Just incorporating more exercise is going to help. I hate the whoie “dieting” thing but I always think it is easier when you have people cheering you on. So I am wishing you good luck this week. Hopefully on monday when you weigh in you will feel like it has all been worth it. By the way I love it when people blog about their weight loss because it give me encouragement to keep on going.
