Well, I made a promise on Friday not to journal this weekend, to give it one week.
So far, two days down, and I’m two for two.
In my head, I still knew what I was eating more or less. But I only counted points for non-Core foods, per the Weight Watchers Core plan I follow.
It was a pleasant change to not be journaling every bite on Sparkpeople, or worrying about updating my spreadsheet.
I ate to satisfaction, and didn’t obsess over my food choices. Though I had no dining-out challenges this weekend, my husband and I grilled, which was fun.
I enjoyed some treats and otherwise ate healthily, without devoting more time than necessary to my weight, food, or the blog (which will be updated M-Fr).
I still worked out all three days, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but nothing excessive–just my usual cardio and weights and I stopped when I was tired, didn’t push myself too hard. I’ll be taking Monday off and just biking with a friend for moderate exercise.
All in all, it was a good weekend and I think I’m off to a good start. I don’t intend to update my blog every week with how I did over the weekend, but I did want to acknowledge the progress I think I’m already making.
