Goodbye SparkPeople! Hi again, WW...

Yes, I will be back on WW now. I liked Spark People, I wanted it to work, but I think it's my own fault that it didn't work, for me, as well as I would have liked. I loved that I could eat peanut butter without having a serious cut in my points. I need the good fat, but I'm not content with a pb&banana sandwich being 9 points on WW, I'll get my good fat in other ways.

I know I went to Olive Garden this past weekend, but I thought I did good. And yes, I may have snuck some fries in last night for dinner, but I only ate half of them. I'm just frustrated right now and I'm sick of tracking what I eat.

The reason behind this switch was my WI this morning - I maintained. Now I had/have (not sure if I still do) a goal of being 150 by Christmas. I started the month of Oct. at 165, I figured 5lbs./month and I could easily get there. Well I forgot to factor in my fantastic week of the month where I gain or maintain because of my "being a woman", if ya know what I mean. I'll keep going, but I'm frustrated. I've been running this week, too, and maybe I just didn't drink enough water or something. I want to have a bangin' week, I haven't seen one of those in a month. I need to track everything, honestly, and truthfully. I've been planning my meals out, mostly, and sticking to them. I've been getting all my GHGs in.

On a side note, the hubs didn't get paid for his overtime he worked last week, and we're just barely making it by, and it's his birthday and I really wanted to go out to eat tonight, but he said we don't have the money, but it's his birthday! I know he just has to talk to the accountant, at least I hope and think so, and they'll pay him for it. What a crappy Friday, is it time to go home yet?

As for this weekend's plans, we're going to my cousin's house tomorrow after Chuck gets off work. At least I'll be able to get a run in either tonight or tomorrow, and I can eat a good, healthy breakfast and lunch before who knows what I'll eat for dinner. Sunday is Chuck's birthday, so who knows what I'll eat then, too. I just need to be smart, and make a conscious effort to stay on track.

I'll probably post tomorrow and do a monthly recap, not so excited for that, I don't think I've done very well.
