Back in South Florida

Hey Everyone!!

I am back in South Florida (Miramar to be exact....)
The move was pretty smooth. I was pretty nervous about my mother's visit because visitors usually give me an excuse to throw my good eating habits out of the window. And I am sure that she enjoyed me cooking her meals. (She did most of the moving/cleaning/organizing so I'd say it was a semi-even trade)

Last Saturday was weigh in day (my fave!) and I was really excited. I skipped the weigh in before that (if you all remember that far back....) because I felt like the negative results would have sent me off the deep end. Here are my results from last Saturday (8/15)


Yay! 157.4! Yay!
However.....now that I am back home I have to be honest.....
I have not counted points. I've just been "winging it", which for me is a recipe for failure. But its been hard ya'll! I am out of my comfort zone. It's like I open the fridge and I don't know where to start. I have been here since Sunday and I JUST went to the grocery store today to stock up on my essentials.

I am scared of what the scale will say on Saturday.

BUT, I am excited to attend a new meeting. I really loved loved loved my L.A. meetings and I hope my new meeting is just as fun. I am not going to avoid the scale despite my lack of discipline this week. Part of the problem is that I have been eating my first meal very late in the day.....at first this was because of the time change....now its just because I have been sleeping late and not planning my meals throughout the day...
So today my first meal was at 4:30pm. I am a work in progress. :)

Lunch??
Lean ground beef
Sandwich thin
1 cup grapes
yogurt
9 pts

Snack
crackers
3 pts

Dinner

1 and 1/2 cup whole wheat pasta
1/2 cup fat free ricotta cheese
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
spinach
8.5 pts

Dessert
SmartOnes Peanut Butter Cup Sundae
3 pts

My parents have been so impressed by my progress that I have been commissioned to be in charge of their dinners. This sucks because it makes me have to cook meals that aren't portioned into one serving. But it is great because it forces me to plan my meals around what I am preparing for dinner.

Total for the day: 23.5 pts
