DAY #5

Whew, hard day! 4 yr. old has run herself into the ground (she's very busy and very active) and is one her 3rd major meltdownfor the day. Baby is teething, nothing is making her happy tonight. Caught myself looking for little miniature chocolates we used to keep in the liquer cabinent- none there. Then I grabbed a couple fat strawberries and loaded them up w/lite cool-whip. (Thank goodness for Cool-Whip!). Broke my perfect "26" daily points today and went over by 4. (Not even sure how- but I think it was the 6 pt. snack I had out of the vending machine in between running the kiddos to swimming and summer tutoring- didn't have my carrots woth me today:() Weigh-in is Thursday- so hope I can be good till then.

A cool treat that has helped me out this week is:

1 individual serving Weight Watchers "Berries and Cream" yogurt (1 pt.)
2 diced strawberries (0 points)
1/2 cup lf or ff cottage cheese (1 pt.)
1 tablespoon Cool-Whip (0)

I know the combinations seem weird- but it really is tasty, and fills up a whole bowl!

Day 4

Dear Blog Diary,

Today's weight: 193

HI THERE!

Dear Blog Diary,

I am starting this to help me drop a few lbs. this summer. I've been battling this most of my adult life. I am trying to follow WW (Weight Watchers) on-line. I've finally discovered that in order for me to lose weight I have to stick to my daily points of 26- no more- even though they say you can earn activity points and take from a 35 point weekly allowance. I will gain weight if I do this, but will lose if I have a perfect "26".

3/3/07- Starting weight 215
