Tomorrow's weigh in for me!

weightLoss29.gif

Me too! I always weigh in on Mondays, so I can get a fresh start to the week and minimize any damage I did over the weekend! So far I haven't gained, but still not losing again. I think I have hit some type of plateau, had a really rough week and relented to some good ol "stress eating" over the weekend! Guess I never fully recovered from that Thin Mints attack earlier in the week, it's so hard sometimes to just eat a little of something and stop. :unsure:

My plan for this week is to hit the gym harder (without hurting it) and shake things up a bit by replacing my usual Lean Cuisines at lunch w/ salads and lean protein on the side. Sometimes our bodies get used to the same routine and foods. Hope everyone has a great week! (F)

I think replacing the lean cuisine's with salads will show a diff since the frozen foods have a lot of sodium in them!

I'm down 1.75 this week! :dance::dance:

WTG bridget! :dancing:

I'm going to try to not weigh myself this week at all, since it just discourages me. I can see differences in my body and feel differences in how my clothes fit, so I do know that I'm making progress.

Also trying to increase my water intake still...

I can't afford the lean cuisines or healthy choice meals so this is what I'm stuck with.

I hear ya...they are rather expensive considering the amount of food you're actually getting. At my store they've gone up from $2.25 ea to $2.89 ea in the past year alone!
