Just stopping by to check in...

Lately I've felt meh about my blog. I get minimal response to it (love all the people who do respond!) so it's not much of a motivator in that sense.

I missed my weigh-in today because I'm in Orlando. John and I came here Wednesday night to spend a long weekend for the Thanksgiving holiday.

His mom. step-dad and grandpa came for dinner Thursday. It was a nice time.

At night I watched Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince since I finally finished the book last week!

Just started Deathly Hollows tonight!

Anyway, I weighed this morning (brought my scale) and I appear to be the same or possibly down a half pound. Hard to tell since I'm not weighing in at my apartment (does that matter I wonder if it's the same scale?).

I started the cleanse I'm trying out. Today is day 1 of the intense cleanse part. It's going okay. I'm not going to tell you what the cleanse is until I finish it. Tomorrow is another hard day and then Monday through Friday is easier and I finish off with two more serious cleanse days.

I normally hate upon such things but I trusted my acupuncturist and went with it.

I'm going to WW next Saturday to learn the new program and hope this will kick start me in a good way for the new WW program.

Off I go...

p.s. Family is eating pizza in the other room. FML!

Hello?

So it's been a few days without posting. Haven't had too much to post about!

Went to my meeting Saturday and was up .6. I was expecting as much being that I used all 35 weeklies if not more. I've learned a long time ago that I'm one of those people who can't use all 35 and expect to lose.

This week is going to be different! I am going to lose 3!

Yesterday I went to my friends engagement party and I did well. I ate an estimated 1/2 cup of rice and some white meat chicken breast and some salad with no dressing. There was a variety of cake and I only had three small bites of John's (which was counted as three points). Jen did great too and didn't have any cake at her own party! I left the party and was only 5 points over for the night.

Unfortunately, today was one of those days where no matter what I eat or how much I am still hungry! Ugh. I am now two points over even with my three activity points I got today!

I decided I hate how "good fats" like almonds and avocado which are good for you are so high in points. Lame!

Anyway, time to go shower. My apartment gym was really warm and I got super sweaty! Yuck!

The happiest place on earth!

This weekend John and I went to Disney World. We live in Florida so we got these FL resident passes for any four days until the end of May for $99. It's a great deal!

Friday we drove to Orlando and stayed at a cheap hotel outside the Disney area.

Saturday we went to Animal Kingdom. The weather was beautiful! I got a little burnt on my shoulders and chest because I forgot to wear sunscreen there (only put some on my face). We were at the park from 9-4 and because of all the walking I counted that I earned 3 activity points.

For lunch we ate at the park and I got a veggie burger which was on a wheat bun and got apple slices instead of fries! Disney actually has healthier options!

We met my sister and her friends for dinner at Kobe Steak House. Didn't do too bad since I had the extra AP. I had chicken and shrimp and go it "low-carb" style so I had all veggies and no rice or noodles.

Today we met up with my friends at Hollywood Studios and went on some stuff there from 9 to 12 and then we went over to Epcot to have lunch for my friend Jen's birthday! We ate at this French restaurant which was a little high in points. I ate some bread and butter and for lunch had some french onion soup and some salmon that came with ratatouille . I don' have my points book out and my legs are too sore to go get it so I can't give my exact amounts right now.

We all left the park around 4 because it started pouring around 1:30 p.m. and even with our ponchos it was bad. :(

We got back to Tampa around 5:30 p.m. and passed out until around 7. We both weren't feeling well but John has a fever and is getting sick. I hope I don't get it. I'm not feeling too great though so...

Time to go shower and rest!

Oscars!

Ok, so I failed to make full out updates this weekend but it was hard being out of town! I expect this to happen every now and then.

Seasons 52 was yummy and everything on their menu is under 475 calories! Def. check them out if they're in your area.

Tonight we ate dinner at John's parents house. His mom made a light chicken curry. It was yummy. I took a pic but the lighting was bad. We had some dessert too.

Considering having some challenges this weekend I only used 20/35 weeklies.

My goal for this week is to not use the other 15 and go for a walk three nights.

I'm excited to watch the Oscars tonight. John and I are going to play a game and whoever gets the most preditions right wins a 10 min. massage. :P

I'll be back in full-force tomorrow!
