Re: So we promised and it's Sunday: Day 1
can i say this is a great thread that is is the process! it will be an inspiration to many!
Ok so Sunday is a hard day for me....I come from a huge Italian Family, my Dad was born there an came here in his early twenties. He needs to have pasta and the 3 course meal on Sunday's. However, I really want to stay away from carbs. Does anyone else have this problem? I hate cooking when I can't eat it!!!!! Ahhhhhh!

Right now I'm eating a whole wheat bagel with low fat veggie cream cheese.
I went to WW this morning and I lost 1.8 lbs this week! Did not except that to happen at ALL!

For me, Sundays are 'cheat days'. I get weighed in Sunday morning, and then after that I allow myself to eat a little more than I usually would (last Sunday I went to the olive garden and had lots of carbs). i eat right the rest of the week and still lose weight.

Re: So we promised and it's Sunday: Day 1
I guess I did semi good today:
I had a grilled chicken wrap with egg whites and lettuce & tomato. I cheated a little bit with a couple of fries but I plan to make it up by hitting the gym tomorrow.
I also haven't started my journal but I will do that tonight!

Re: So we promised and it's Sunday: Day 1
just wanted to BUMP this up.
I will admit, I havent done such a great job. I have been staying at my parents house while they are away so its just been easier to go out to eat then to cook for just myself.
I really need to get going on this though, Im going to Disney Oct 3 and I dont want to look like a fat slob!

Re: So we promised and it's Sunday: Day 1
You are not a fat slob and you are going to look great on your vacation If you are going to order out or go out and make it something that is healthy or at least portion control. I learned from WW that you should divide your plate into two, if once you finish the first portion ask yourself, am I still hungry, if you are not doggy bag it.
I have been pretty good about 90% of the time. I have been drinking my water which makes me happy, and I definitely feel a bit lighter. I am going to weight myself tomorrow at the home of where I babysit. I have come to realize that I shouldn't own a scale as I am OCD-ish and weigh myself constantly, before i tinkle and after i tinkle, before i eat and after i eat and then i weigh myself in each room on the house to see where I am the skinniest, I'm a nut!
