I don't know if I have confessed this to you yet or not, but I haven't counted points in weeks. At first it was just that it was a bad week food wise with family in town so I just decided that I wouldn't worry about my weight loss that week. In other words, the goal became- don't gain weight instead of lose weight. But then a strange thing happened....I LOST WEIGHT. So then the next week I didn't count points and I lost weight again. Then I just decided that I would keep "not counting points" until it stopped working (in other words- I gained weight). Well that hasn't happened yet. It wasn't a lot of weight, but I lost none the less. So now I am beginning to think that I could have really good weight loss if I just kept track of everything. I think there is a fear that I know am over my point totals each day and I don't want to see that on the computer. But if I want to be serious about this, I better get tracking (ok, yes I realize this is a stupid play on words, but it made me chuckle). Only problem? I am heading to California to visit friends and I will have little control over where we eat. So, I am going to do the best I can, track what I can, and see what happens. My hope is to lose over 1.3 pounds because that would get me to my first mini-goal.
So here is the breakdown:
Goal: 50 pounds
Week: 7
Loss this week: .6 pounds
Total Loss: 9.2 pounds
So many people have told me that WW really works, and I didn't want to believe them. To be honest, I thought it was too good to be true. But, I'll admit I was wrong...and I'm really considering joining. I would like to lose 30lbs within the next 6 months.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your weight loss success. If not counting points works for you, I would just stick with it.
