today I did some things I am both proud and not so proud of. What I am proud of is that I took my friend Aivi shopping for groceries today and showed her how to use her point slider and even provided her with a cookbook and the necessary tools to begin her journey. We were able to be honest about things about weight and health issues that we are currently facing and the things I know from experience that we will face. Bonus of that is we both will face them together. She plans on beginning on Monday. I will be beginning week 2 on Monday.
I also joined WW online because there is lots of useful information I can get there. Including more recipies and if I do hit a plateau, I can ask them for help. Because sometimes you just have to do that. This acting like you don't need it is not an option. We all need help. Some of those like myself don't always ask for it.
What I am not so proud of is the fact that during all the running around I have done I only consumed 5 points with minimum water intake. I was so famished, I ate 2 baked potato's with little butter and cheese. Now I know that it wasn't bad, but I don't want to begin that habbit. Here I am being some sorta teacher if you wanna call me that for my friend and I am not following the program correctly.
I managed to do my shopping for the week and I am trying new recipies. I am hoping that they will curb my craving for Chineese food. I am not sure exactly where to go here in Spain for it, they do have places but I know that the points aren't worth it.
And speaking of being here in Spain. One of the many perks of being here and not being able to speak the language so much is that I find myself cooking everynight. Which that is great. I mean, I don't have the temptation to stop at Burger King, Taco Bell, and Subway. Which they do have here. But it's so expensive that is a bonus for me not giving into to much take out food. I am only worried a bit about when I make the trip back to the states for a month. Oh the foods I have missed and it will be tempting to go to all my favorite places to eat. I will cross that ocean when I get to it.
So, here's my points for today.
Breakfast: Coffee(s) 4points
snack: Grapes 1 cup 1 point
Dinner: 2 baked potato's with butter and Cheese (I am going to say 15) because I am not sure because I didn't measure anything (bad me)
Will refocus and do what is necessary for tomorrow. Gotta do this. BRING IT!!!
BTW, I so did 75 situps today. Small bravo for me.
