The big day...

Tomorrow is the big day... again this week!!!

I have done really good this week as far as staying within my point range and I've even started exercising again. I haven't exercised any for the last few weeks because I wasn't losing as much as I wanted to and had even gained a little bit at times. Honestly, even though my clothes were fitting looser, I just needed to see the number on the scales go down!

I did the Kick Start again this week and have only been eating 20 points per day which is 5 pts less than I am usually allowed.

I did this before and lost 4 lbs the first time, but the very next week I gained the 4.6. I'm pretty sure I gained this much because after losing so much I figured it wouldn't hurt to eat a little bit more of my fav foods... which, again, were no-no's!!!

I decided to give it another go last week and lost 2.8 lbs. But, instead of losing focus like I had the first time I lost doing this plan, I decided to stay on track and didn't even splurge last Saturday or Sunday.

Yes, Saturday and sometimes Sundays are what I like to call my "splurge days". I don't go overboard... or try not to... but if there is anything I am craving that week, I eat it on Saturday. If I want to use any of my additional 35 pts that week, I use them on Saturday and sometimes Sunday.

But, not last weekend! I did great!!! I ate only 20 pts per day both days and I've been doing it all this week as well. I am so hoping that this is going to pay off for me!!!

As for Kick Start, it's a new plan WW has come out with. You can try it when you start WW or when you hit a plateau or just want to lose a little bit more. The only rules are that you can't lose more than 2 lbs more than 3 weeks in a row. (A healthy weight loss, according to WW, is between 0.5 and 2 lbs per week.)

Anyway, I have decided to stick with the Kick Start plan until I have lost more than 2 lbs, three weeks in a row. Then I'll only use it when I hit a plateau or gain the week before... prayerfully that will not happen again!!!

I guess I'll know tomorrow morning if it's actually doing me any good or not. I can tell by the way my clothes are fitting that I've probably lost at least a little bit this week... just don't know how much.

I'll be sure to post an update tomorrow... I'm expecting it to be a good one!!! :-)
