OK guys, so I’m struggling a bit with my schedule. Being in Amsterdam during the week should mean I have time for myself, to go to the gym, to prepare my food etc. But it’s not happening. I finally seemed to get it together around midweek last week - even went to the gym - [...]

First off, weigh-in, another 2lbs down! Only 5.9lbs to my mini-goal of 198. I could have said 199 to hit ONEderland, but 198 is 10%. Ive amazed myself that I CAN actually do this for more than 3 weeks at a time. 5 weeks now to be exact (on WW online).
Secondly, [...]
I’m going to keep track in this post my exercise for the week; since this is Week 4 back on WW and historically the week I seem to go off the rails, I’m going to focus extra this week on staying on plan and EXERCISING!
Sunday - 1 hour walk in the woods (registered 40 [...]

Things went a bit pear-shaped last week. Tons of stress, too little sleep, too many hours worked, too little planning. It showed on the scale too. I need to repeat to myself daily the following::
1) NOT planning doesn’t help me. Yes it’s great to sleep an additional 15 minutes in the morning, but if, at [...]

double espresso

vitelinea yoghurt

olive oil and balsamic vinegar

It’s my step-daughter’s birthday today! whoo hoo! She’s 10. Unbelievable!
I also found out that my colleague gave birth to a daughter yesterday! She was due the 29th but we all figured she’d go a bit early! I can’t wait to meet that little girl and give her lots of love and presents!
Plan/already prepared for the [...]
The last few days I have been focusing a bit more on the few things I can do to feel better about myself.
Today I’m tracking, but I’m not focusing on points, this week I’m getting back into fruits and veggies. So here’s what I’ve prepared for myself:
B - double espresso
Sandwich with lite hellman’s and 0% [...]

You know, this birthday has been totally low-key and I’m so down with that at the moment
You see, yesterday I planned exactly what I was going to eat. I got up early this morning (no lie-in for the old chick here) and I prepared everything. My goal points per day are 21. My [...]
Well, Saturday, too
What an excellent day! I’m on a roll! 20 points in total, included a lunch out, a WW recipe for dinner that I tweaked (I’m sorry, but I can not live with only one clove of garlic in a recipe), even had a few Vodka & Cassis Light which I had [...]

Things are better today. Yesterday I wasn’t feeling [...]
