I'm Not a Loser

What I mean is that I'm not a loser of weight. 
After this last week of being dedicated to tracking points and eating mindfully I didn't lose even a tenth of a pound. There were two times I did not know 100% my points but budgeted as much as possible and also had my weekly flex points. I guess I don't know if those affected my lack of any loss.
I'm feeling a bit discouraged because I thought I planned as best I could for my splurges and they made me feel like I could still be a little normal and not totally deprived. But I guess the only thing I can do is keep going and know that although I may not see a drop on the scale I didn't see a gain! And I feel good, I ate healthy and I can keep trying and going forward.


But not without challenges, I came in to work yesterday to find not just one cake in the lunch room, but FOUR!
Not a crumb passed these lips though!



I also want to say one of my favorite blogs Tippy Toe Diet  has this cool feature called "Rock stars of the Week" and yours truly was featured last week! I've never felt more support from the online community than I did from this. :) feeling like people out there understand my challenges really really helps me keep going.


Breakfast was strawberry goji greek yogurt with berries, this week I have added raspberries to my mix. 


Lunch was a romaine salad with bell peppers, feta, bacon bits, fat free croutons and my favorite champagne pear vinaigrette.

Afternoon snack of turkey jerky and a banana

For dinner I tried a new recipe from Emily Bites, it was so good! Baked Pizza Spaghetti not only sounds weird but it certainly doesn't sound like a Weight Watchers recipe. But 1/6th of the recipe was 12 Points Plus and it was filling and delicious! The only change I made was to add red and green bell peppers.

Here is before the oven

After

and on my plate ready for me to eat!

Apple snack annnnd then time for bed!
