Weekly Weigh-In: June 2, 2012


I’ve decided to do Weekly Weigh-In posts every Saturday to track my weight loss. I think blogging about my weigh-ins will create some sort of accountability, and an opportunity to map out a plan for the next week.

This week, I wasn’t expecting to lose any weight. I went out to eat several times throughout the week (including fast food- eek!) and I didn’t work out. I also had dessert a few times. I assumed that I didn’t eat healthy enough to warrant weight loss.

To my surprise, I lost one pound this week. It’s not much, but I’ll take it! One pound lost is better than nothing, and it’s definitely better than gaining.

This next week might be a bit of a challenge. Tomorrow I’m flying to Dallas to visit my family. This will be my first big trip while on Weight Watchers. Every time I fly, I always get peanut butter M&M’s at the airport, and there’s usually plenty of desserts and treats at my grandparents’ house. I’ve decided to be prepared and plan ahead. I plan on packing some snacks in my purse so I won’t be tempted to grab candy at the airport. Once I arrive at my grandparents’ house, I plan on going grocery shopping to make sure I have plenty of fruits and veggies and other healthy snacks for the week. As for exercise, I plan on daily walks/runs around my grandparents’ neighborhood. I probably won’t weigh-in next week, though, because I’ll be traveling back home next Saturday. I’m sure my Granna has a scale I could use before heading to the airport, but I’m trying to use the same scale every time I weigh myself, just for consistency’s sake. Every scale is a little different. So next week I may just write a post about the choices I made throughout the week (did I buy the M&M’s after all?) and the following week I’ll do a weigh-in.
