WEIGHT WATCHERS WEDNESDAY'S(monday this week): Lifetime weigh-in #4

 

I went past my goal range and I had to pay. WAH WAH WAH! It was an eye opener. This month hasn't been easy so fasr. It's summer and its two major events. The passing of my grandmother and my birthday.,

Dealing with her passing STILL, a year later, still amkes me emotional eat. Ill be back to 145 in Sept. I just have to get thru this week (birthday week) and I am good as gold mentally. 

On another hand, These Jack in the Box donuts are the devil!!!!

Weight Watchers Weekly Weigh-In: 2 lbs DOWN! 45.8 pounds LOST!

 

This week I lost 2 POUNDS! Which seriously was again unexpected....that means I am 1 pound away from my mini-goal weight! Woot! Woot!

So ...

HIGH OF THE WEEK?

My high of the week was making healthier decisions when it came to what I am drinking. I was seriously wanting Coca-Cola. A nice cold coke to be exact. But I opted for an unsweetened tea or water. In fact, I walked around my work office with my HUGE water bottle! Lol. I peed like a race horse but I didn't touch the soda! YAY ME!

Oh heres a before and after of the year! WHOA!!!

LOW OF THE WEEK?

My low was eating WAY too many almonds. Last week was my Cheez-itz phase, this week, it is ALMONDS! I think I had way too many when I could have used those points on something else. Oh well. At least I counted! Oh my never mind, my low was eating the new McDonald's S'mores Pie! Which by the way is 8pp! One point during the day I had NO points for dinner because of that pie. An 8 pp dinner when I could have used that 8pp (pie) on dinner to make it 16! Silly Stef! But if you haven't tried it, ADDICTING!

WHAT I LEARNED?

I learned that if I bite it, I write it NO MATTER WHAT! I also learned that I have a goal. I WILL COMPLETE MY GOAL! I will get there and if my progress is slow, I dont care. Its better than NO progress! I will enjoy life the best that I can. No if's, and's or but's. I have FREEDOM with weight watchers. It allows me to live my life FREELY and like a normal 26 Year old!

So there you have ladies and gents! New week!

*Kisses last week and those two pounds goodbye*

 

WEIGHT WATCHERS WEEKLY WEIGH-IN: 3 pounds LOST

 

Can I do a happy dance? 

3 POUNDS LOST!

My mini-goal is 175! Hopefully that little goal will be fulfilled and a new one will be made. 

So I decided to change up my weekly weigh-in posts. Typically I would just write, write and write and I realized they are becoming similar to my "Saturdays with Stef"

So to turn to something NEW, I decided to do something new...HERE WE GO!

HIGH OF THE WEEK

My family bought Subway cookies. If you know me, you will know I love sweets. I took ONE cookie, which was 6pp and that was it! NO MORE! Old Stefanie would have taken a few! Nope, not this time! This time I only had a desire to eat one and that was it!

LOW OF THE WEEK

My journey would not be complete without a low. My low was Jack in the Box new nuggets. Ummm 7 pp for 5!! At McDonald's they are 6 for 7 pp! But they taste way better! Even though they are in my pp range I decided no more! Waste of 7 pp! 

WHAT I LEARNED

I learned that I can NOT emotionally eat by simply stopping and thinking of an alternative. For instance, I went for a walk each time I felt like I was gonna emotionally eat. If it was at night, I read. I also kept that water by my bed again, after a week of not having water as my "snack" 

HERE'S TO A NEW WEEK!!!

SATURDAY'S WITH STEF: My Shorts Don't Fit....

 

It takes self-control. Determination. Confidence. Self-love and the ability to stay focused on my goal.

I took this picture just to see how baggy my shorts are. Mind you I have had these shorts for over 3 years. My eyes widened and thought...I DID THIS. Something NO ONE can take away from me. Something I did ON MY OWN. 

Second thought..."This is a big eff-you to every guy who didn't date me because of my weight. A big eff-you to every guy who has ever let me go."

I am so darn proud of myself! PROUD I TELL YOU! All those times someone has called me fat, made fun of my cellulite, my stretch marks and put me down because of my weight, makes me laugh hysterically. How I let these horrid people make me feel like scum because I was heavier than the girl next door is beyond me. NOW, I AM THE GIRL NEXT DOOR BABY!

I started a new job this week, I think I have told you guys. I find myself eating less than I would if I was at home. I guess because none of my favorites are in the work fridge. SCORE! Packing my lunch is a plus btw. I know my points and there's an El Pollo Loco right next door. POLLO BOWLS HERE I COME!!

My shorts don't fit...and I am glad some of the people who brought me down didn't fit in my life either.

Losing has never felt so good. 

I deserve to be treated amazing based on ME. Not the size of my jeans.

The world is mine for the taking!

CHEERS TO A NEW JOB!

CHEERS TO A NEW SIZE!

CHEERS TO NEW ADVENTURES!

CHEERS TO NEW MEMORIES!

CHEERS TO NEW BEGINNINGS!
