Week 10 My #WeightWatchers Journey Go Me!!

Hello again!  It's just me here to tell you about another successful week on my Weight Watchers journey.

This week I focused on portion control.  I also wanted to eat a lot more vegetables and so I made a lot of recipes that included many fresh and frozen vegetables.

I also have this sudden passion for tikka masala.  I eat it in small amounts, but love it with chick peas and basmati rice.

I make sure to eat a healthy breakfast every morning.  I usually will have eggs, egg beaters, puffed wheat cereal or oatmeal with fresh fruit.    I limit the amount of bread I eat.  Usually if I have bread, it will only be in the morning with breakfast and is usually a light english muffin since the entire english muffin is only 2 points.  I almost feel like I am cheating when I eat it.  I also do not drink my calories.....with 1 exception.    I limit coffee to a couple of times a week and I use Silk Almond Creamer.  It is delicious and less points than regular cream.

I went out to eat a couple of times this week.  I always order a big salad with dressing on the side to start or as my main meal.    I really like salads that have fresh fruits and a little bit of nuts and feta or goat cheese.  I also look in the light section of the menu and I don't hesitate to customize my meals by telling the waitress exactly how I would like it.  They are usually accommodating.  After all, I am eating for me, not the person who designed the menu.

This week I lost 2 lbs!!  I was so excited when I stepped on the scale.  I honestly didn't think I would be down that much.  I am now down 20 pounds!  I am so happy about that.  My goal right now is to be down 25 pounds by Christmas.  That would be a great accomplishment for me..... baby steps.

I would love to hear how you stay focused on your goals and what inspires you to continue on your journey to success.

I will succeed. I am determined.

Have a great and healthy week!
