Hi all!
Guess what? My weight on the scale is actually down! It’s showing me as being down 6 lbs from my most recent highest. But officially, I’m only down 2.7. But I’ll take it! I’m excited to see what the scale says on Saturday. I was perfectly on plan Friday. Wasn’t perfectly on plan Saturday, but didn’t do TOO bad and did a lot of walking at the renaissance festival. Then was perfectly on plan yesterday and so far so good today! I’m going out tonight and I even have my planned drinking tracked in advance in my tracker. Go [ ... ]

Hi all! I hope you’re all doing well. I’ve been meaning to drop in for a while now, but, well…got caught up in life again.
The week before last, I didn’t track perfectly, but somehow managed to get a five pound loss! Yeah, I am still not quite sure how that happened.
This past week…I didn’t do the best. Didn’t do terribly, but didn’t track again. I gained 1.4 pounds. But some of that could also have been water retention. So I was okay with it.
The interesting thing to note was that I weighed in at exactly the same weight that I [ ... ]

Happy Monday all! Ok…well, as happy as a Monday can be.
For the great majority of the time that I was losing weight, I weighed in on Tuesdays. Several weeks ago, I flipped it to Mondays. It just seemed to work better with the new hours I’ve been working.
As you know, I began attending Weight Watchers meetings on Saturday, so my new weigh-in day is now Saturday (which is going to take some getting used to). Since I’d only technically stuck to the plan one day (Sunday), I decided to go ahead and weigh in this morning to see [ ... ]

Hi folks! I’m still here! Promise!
Life has just been very…..life lately.
I am loving my life right now (for the most part). Do you know when the last time was that I said that? Yeah, me either, but let me know if you remember.
Things have been a bit crazy. Been spending as much time as I can with friends – for example, went out for lunch with a couple of friends on Sunday, then went to dinner with another that night. Met another friend Tuesday night and am meeting another friend tonight. Have plans midday on Saturday with one [ ... ]

Today was weigh in day and I was pleased to see that I am down another 1.7 pounds! For those of you crazy kids keeping track at home, that marks a loss two weeks in a row!! This is the first time that has happened since the beginning of July.
I confess that I am still not tracking. I know that on some days I go WAY over my points. I know that on other days, I am probably WAY under my points. I absolutely cannot explain what I’m doing or how I’m doing it. I’m mostly eating when I need [ ... ]

Well, today was weigh-in day. Sadly, though I was showing a loss last Thursday, I was up a bit (0.8 lb to be exact) on the scale today. But you know what? I’m totally happy with that! I had a good week – spent time with friends and family and enjoyed myself. And the fact that I was pretty much able to maintain my weight while doing it? Hallelujah! And I’m still not really tracking – just kind of doing it in my head when I can. I think I’m really starting to learn about myself and how I need [ ... ]

Today brings you a very exhausted (still not much sleep-ha understatement) Pamela, but a totally thrilled Pamela, as well. (Two Pamela’s for the price of one!)
I just weighed in and lost 6.3 pounds this week! WHOOHOO! Boy, do I have that yo-yo’ing on the scale thing down or what? Seriously though, I think I’m starting to learn how to listen to my body, because I didn’t track this week. I even had a couple of binges earlier in the week. I must have made up for it though!
I lost 9.3 pounds in the past month and even better is that [ ... ]

Today was weigh in day and unfortunately, I showed a 1.1 pound gain. But surprisingly, I was very okay with it. While a bit disappointed, I actually had an extremely positive attitude about it all.
First, I had Mexican (chips/salsa, grilled chicken fajitas with sour cream and guacamole) for lunch and then the leftovers for dinner on Saturday. I snacked way more than I should have late Saturday night – not crazy off-plan things (like ice cream), but definitely more than I should have had and didn’t count it. Sunday, I had a bagel thin pizza (just a homemade pizza using [ ... ]

Hi all! I think this post might be fairly short, because I’m pretty much running on fumes right now. I’ve had very little sleep since the end of last week. While some circumstances helped make that happen, a lot of it is my own fault (and the damn show, “Supernatural“). I’m also attempting to get my dad sucked into the show “Angel,” and he and I have been watching a few episodes when I got off work the past few nights. Which pushes back my “Supernatural” watching, and since I just can’t wait to see what happens, that [ ... ]

Well, I’m really sad to see my “Lbs.” movie experience post get bumped down on my blog page, but it’s weigh in day, and I guess it can’t stay at the top forever. Oh wait. Yes, it can. This is my blog and I can do what I want So I’ve added it under my favorite posts at the right.
Not surprisingly, I gained. But I only gained 1.1 pounds! Considering that I ate like the cookie monster from Saturday night through Sunday night, it’s truly a testament to how much walking I did Friday and Saturday [ ... ]

Today’s post title has a couple of different meanings. The first is about my weigh in. As I posted yesterday morning, I actually stayed on plan ALL week this week! I’m really proud of myself for that. And, I’ve been meaning to mention this for weeks now, but I have another victory to share with you all. I’m a big fan of the 100 calorie packs of Cheetos, though I hate their price. I always knew that buying a big bag of Baked Cheetos and dividing them into my own 100 calorie packs would be much, much cheaper, but [ ... ]

Hi everybody!
How was your weekend? Do anything fun? I was up bright and early Saturday morning on a hunt for new workout shoes. Unfortunately, I have big feet and pretty flat arches, so it’s not an easy proposition. I tried several different ones on and ended up going with ones that my friend, Shawna, recommended. They’re the Nike Air Zoom Structure Triax. They felt incredible in the store, but after a few hours of wearing them, my feet were pretty sore. I’m going to give them a good workout on the treadmill over the next couple of weeks and hopefully [ ... ]

Hi all!
Just a quick post tonight. I was down 2.8 on the scale today, but since I was up way more than that last week, I don’t really feel like it’s much of a success. I’m going to just keep plodding along.
Anyone watching “The Biggest Loser”? Are you watching tonight? No spoilers since they showed this on the preview, but O’Neil about broke my heart tonight when he was struggling with losing his brother. I’ve been there. I know what he’s going through, and seriously, I almost couldn’t watch. I wish I could give him a hug.
And I love Daris!!

Hi all! Can you believe that it has been 200 weeks since I joined Weight Watchers? I can’t! Time sure flies. On June 5th, it will have been four years. FOUR YEARS?! What the heck? Where does time go?
So yeah, unfortunately for several months during 2009, I was off plan, but I’m still factoring those weeks in. And unfortunately, I was up 0.5 pounds at weigh in today. Ah, well. You know, seriously, I can’t complain. It’s the first time I’ve been up since 3/2/10, and it’s not even a whole pound. And [ ... ]

First, the cat’s out of the bag! I told my mom about my blog! I know! *gasp* But Mr. Carmine Famiglietti mentioned it on my Facebook page (my fault for not telling him it was a secret!) and since I couldn’t bring myself to delete his comment, I figured I’d spill the beans since she’d probably see it anyway. And I didn’t want her to find out like that. So if y’all would give my mom a great big “Hi,” I would appreciate it!
My mom’s one of my best friends in this world, so supportive, so it shouldn’t change my [ ... ]
