Let me recap: Week 4 was an amazing week! I followed my diet to a T, worked out everyday and lost a total of 3.2 making my weight loss 16lbs even. I was so ecstatic and so pumped! I remember sitting in my WW meeting after weighing in and telling myself I was going to hit my 5% goal on week 5. But.....
It all started Super Bowl Sunday, we went to our friends house and there was a lot of people which makes for a lot of food and the rest is history. I just had a bad week in general though even though I did work out everyday but what's the point of working out if all you are putting in your body is crap, right? I gained on week 5 and it wasn't just like a small amount, no, I gained a total of 2 pounds. I walked in expecting to gain so I wasn't as disappointed as I could have been if I thought for sure I was going to lose but still, a set back is a set back. So, for week 5, it's a total of 14lbs lost since January 9th.
Week 6 started out kind of rough too but seems to be ending on the right track since yesterday morning. You see, Monday night was Valentine's Day and my Valentine cooked me an amazing dinner! It was so good! He did an amazing job and believe it or not, I even took pictures to share with everyone! Tuesday night, we had friends come over and again, I ate like a pig but it was so yummy! (Old habits are so hard to break!) I woke up Wednesday morning feeling like my throat was on fire and realized right away that my acid reflux had slowly but surly made it's way back! I was taking a shower and almost was in tears. I was doing so good, I had come along ways from when I first started and I told myself I was not going to just let a few days or weeks ruin something that I'm SO determined to do. I got out of the shower, got ready and have had two very healthy days since! I also wasn't drinking the amount of water that I should have been drinking and since I have the last two days, I've been in the restroom every hour! It's like starting all over again! UGH! WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?!
I really really hope I can lose a pound or even the two I gained last week, but if I don't, I will be okay. It's just nice to see the number drop every week.
Back to Valentine's Day dinner. The Mr. cooked a rib eye steak, twice baked potato, caesar salad and garlic bread. We also shared a bottle of really stinkin' good red wine and had chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. It was an amazing dinner but I went WAY WAY WAYYYYYY over my points for the day and used most of my weekly points as well. I also go a dozen roses, a pillow pet (which I was extremely excited about) and two very small boxes of chocolate. I had an amazing Valentine's Day!
Here is it! So Yummy!
Finishing up the last touches, thank you Chef Macouzet.
