Weight Watchers Weekly Weigh In [Week 6]

Weight Watchers Freestyle, weekly weigh-ins and meal ideas

Well I did it!  I received my first 5 pound award from Weight Watchers.  I’m not going to lie – it felt amazing!  I know the first five took a pretty long time – 6 weeks – thanks to needing to learn how to control my portions and to make sure I track everything I eat.

It’s funny how we tend to forget those few bites here and those couple of bites there.

I’ve been pretty focused on tracking every single bite (even the small half cookies my toddler likes to force feed me, “momma bite.” then he shoves it in) and making sure I include all the ingredients to the meals we’re cooking.  I’ve even spoken up a the restaurant to make sure my veggies weren’t cooked in butter, which means less points!

This past week was great for me and I’m motivated to keep the ball rolling.  I know it will be hard the last two weeks of June since I’ll be traveling to back-to-back conferences.  But luckily we’ll be driving to both of them so I can bring my own snacks and drinks with me to help keep me on track.

This week’s goals are all about consistency – being more consistent with my activity level.  It’s been so dang hot in Southeast Missouri that even in the evening times it’s still well past 90 outside, which makes it really hard to want to get up and go for a walk.  Luckily this coming week is going to be a lot different.  My husband signed up for a Tough Mudder (look them up, if you haven’t heard of them) and he’s starting his training.  …and I told him I would do it with him… GULP!

If you don’t hear from in a few days then please send help – I might need someone to help lift me up off the floor! I haven’t done much exercising in months and I know the first few training sessions are going to hurt.  I peeked at the schedule and it included a lot of squats, lunches and burpees. Ugh!

So we’ll see how this goes, but I know it’ll be for the best!  I’ll keep you updated about my training in my next Weight Watchers weekly weigh in!
