Weekly Weigh In: Every Little Bit Helps

Tuesday has come around yet again, which means my Weight Watchers meeting and weigh in day. I have to admit as much as I dread the scale sometimes, I love the idea of hoping on there and finding out how my week is. I mean when I first started I could sense if it was going to be a good week or a bad week, most of the time I was happy to see it go down, or said it to go up just a little bit, and at times just shocked, either I had a huge increase, like that bizarre 4 pounds I had a while back or when I got on once and lost 5 pounds and had no clue how it happened.

Well today was one of those days! First before we all get excited thinking I lost 5 pounds, stop because that is not the case, haha, I truly wish. But when I got to WW today I really had no clue what direction this weigh in was going to be going. I had a decent week, it was sort of a weird week for me. I have been going non stop with work, no days off and longer hours, so my life has been a little crazy. I have been trying to fit in my work outs running around that, making good meals and really trying to not eat out. I wish I got more running in this past week, but I guess my body was telling me it will be okay.

I had to work this morning, so I knew I was going to weigh in tonight at my meeting not in the morning like I had the last couple of mornings. I love my Tuesday meetings but waiting all day to weigh in, kills me at times. I know I can eat whatever, but subconsciously I think I cant drink or eat a lot because it will add on those extra pounds, crazy I know. So I ate light today and made it to my meeting on time. And to my awesome surprise when I weighed in I was down 1.2.

Woohoo!! I love LOVE watching that number go down. Even if it is a surprise I still get such a satisfaction and I know that this journey I am on is just where I need to be. I am weighing a weight number I never ever knew I could be, I mean I haven't weighed this low or looked this great ever, I am sure I did in Middle School but I don't ever remember feeling this great.

So no matter the surprise, how I got there or what got me there, I am just happy to be here! I am happy to continue to lose, I have a goal in mind and Every Little Bit Helps and gets me there!

One pound or One Point Two this time at A Time!!

Low Point Apple Crisp

Image
At my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, my leader told me about a low point apple crisp and I couldn't resist making it today. I love apple crisp, I don't have it often or really at all, because it can be high in points and frankly I like low maintenance  baking, so when I can find something easy and quick and low in points, well I am all game!! This apple crisp is again so easy and quick, perfect for a craving, a family gathering, party or just to have around the house. Requires only 3 or 4 ingredients to prepare this and you might even have all of it in your house right now. Apple Crisp Serving Size 4 4pp for a serving 4-5 medium apples 2 packets of Cinnamon or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (preferably one that are 100-120 calories or 3pp) 8 oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7up 5 sprays of Can't Believe It's Not Butter 1tsp of light brown sugar 8x8 baking pan Here is what I used: I actually used 5 apples because I

Let's Go To The Movies....And EAT at Cobb Theaters Tyrone

As part of the Tampa Bay Bloggers, I was given access and a gift card to tour the new Cobb Theatre at the Tyrone Square Mall for social share and blog post, all opinions and reviews are my own. I have lived in the St. Petersburg Area for almost 7 years now and worked at the Tyrone Square Mall for 6.5. In those 6.5 years, I anxiously waited for the mall to get a movie theatre and the time has finally come and this is not just any run of the mill movie theatre, this one is luxury and spacious and a whole experience on its own. Nanci, over at This Crazy Life of Mine , also a Tampa Bay Blogger and more importantly one of my besties, and I have partnered with our blog post about the Cobb Experience. She was in attendance also and there is so much to tell you, we decided to break it up into TWO part posts, linking to the two of our blogs together. I am going to give you the details on the food experience at Cobb, believe me it is more than just soda, candy and popcorn and Nanci is going

Perspective: My Trauma, Fear and Rejection

Well we have made it through another week of CoronaVirus, Stay Home, Social Distancing of 2020. I honestly have no clue what to call it, other than that. Today, has been 2 weeks since we closed BBW and shut down the store. Originally we had some high hopes we would have been open by yesterday, the mall sent an email saying they weren't going to open until the 19th, and then Pres. Trump extended the Social Distancing until the 30th. I honestly have no clue when I am going back to work. I am literally just trying to take it day by day and moment by moment, and week by week. I have been surviving and also Thriving during this process. I am a child of hard things. I have been through some tough shit in my day, and maybe I will get to that at some point, but we can save that for another post. Today the idea of Perspective is in my brain. If you don't know, which I am sure you do know if you follow along with me, but Rachel Hollis, whom is one of the many people I look
