Thursday weigh in update

Tonight was my Weight Watchers meeting, I needed to lose 1.2 pounds to reach a total loss of 100 pounds AND my goal weight. I've been showing a gain all week (I weight myself, at minimum, three times a day- insane, I know) so I wasn't surprised to see the official scale say that I had a 1 pound gain. So, that puts me at a total loss of 97.8 with 2.2 pounds now to go to get to that elusive goal. I got my activity in, and only went through half of my weeklys so things aren't too out of whack. I suspect that the problem may be that I was a bit too "free" with the zero point fruit- I had a serious amount of fruit each day. An average day this week featured 3-4 bananas, 3 Clementines, a cup of grapes and a cup of strawberries- even though there are no WW points to be counted for that fruit, that's still a good amount of calories and natural sugars. I'll tone down the fruit this week & see if that changes things up on the scale. I have my 7th 5K race on Sunday AM, I'll post then with a race update.

  6. Congratulations on being so close to your goal! I had to laugh when you said you weigh 3 times a day; my hubby weighs about 6 times a day. He says it works for him and seeing as you're so close to your goal, I guess it works for you too. :)

  7. Good Luck with reaching your goal. That is so exciting! Youmay be right about the fruit. I went to a gym the other day and told the trainer what I eat on a typical day. He said I was consuming to much fruit and way to many bananas in one day.
