I
barely made it to 32 points today! When I finished my last meal and saw
I was still down by 6 points, I made 16 oz of orange juice and had my
remaining two dates. They happened to come to 6 points. I spent all of
today studying, so I had to consciously break from the books to eat and
to record my meals. If it weren't for the points being on my mind I
would have skipped eating just to keep studying. Luckily it's a lot
faster to record points than calories. Overall, today was a good day as
far as keeping with the new points system and geting enough to eat. I
haven't taken any more sneak peeks at the scale this week, which is
good because I don't want to get obsessed with that.
I think
I'm really going to like using points because of how simple the system
is, but what's even more fun is that I can compare my progress losing
200 lbs this time with my progress losing 200 lbs on Weight Watchers a few years ago. It
took me almost 3 years to do it (not bad at all), but I had a lot of
bingeing, "cheating" and anxiety along the way. The experience is
certainly different this time around.
Well, time to hit the books again.
