This week was better than last but not by much. I only got
to the gym twice (I did earn 8 broom points though) sue to a snafu with my
membership. Fortunately that is fixed and this week will be better gym wise.
Then there was lunch! A little background…
I work a
wonderful 4 – 10 hour days schedule, however, due to holiday pay issues my
co-worker and I each work 4 8 hour days when there is a holiday (like last
week) and we go out to lunch since we have an hour lunch instead of a half
hour, The challenge is that we both love ethnic foods, last week we had Thai,
Salvadoran, Indian and Taiwan style lunches J
It was awesome!
So while I had a foodie’s dream week of lunches I didn’t
have a good week as far as my weight. It only irritated me for a minute though.
Yesterday I had a dinner plate sized pupusa for lunch and it was delicious.
What did I learn from this? Well, first off, I can’t order the super pupusa, I
need to get two of the regular size – I have no off switch when it comes to
those, second, if I get serious and actually follow the Weight Watcher program
these holiday lunch weeks will not be an issue.
I have maintained a 40 pound weight loss for 10 years,
losing the last 25 is now my focus. I know that when I am at my goal weight,
gaining 2 pounds during my foodie holiday lunches won’t bother me because I
know that I will lose those extra pounds within a week or two. Since I am not
at goal I will be planning better for those lunch weeks, fortunately they don’t
happen that often!
So, not too bad a week, up a couple of pounds, lessons
learned and 8 more Broom points added to my total!
