Weekend Update.. and words of the day..

Ok, so I am wanting to cry out for a re-start.. I want to re-start my first week on WW Points+.. I want to re-start the new year.. but i won't.. that is not the way I want to do this.. I need to own up to my gains and crappy days/weeks.. because if I can't accept that I WILL have flaws, then I am not going to beat this thing we call "being overweight".. so I am just gonna have to suck it up, learn what I did wrong, and TRY MY HARDEST to not doing it again! So after I post this, I'm off to find some healthy snacks/lunches that will keep me from going for the Cheetos bag on weekends.. ugh!

-----------------

So Friday, after seeing my gain on my scale, I felt defeated.. a little.. then I realized that I didn't do 75% of what I had PLANNED to do.. and that's the majority of my issue right now.. I can make all the plans I want, but I've got to get my head in this "game" because right now, it ain't! :( I was late getting out of my house, so I missed my WW meeting.. and weigh in.. so I'm stuck for this week.. and why didn't I get out of my house early enough? because I was SOOOOO tired.. ha! I'm always tired, this is nothing new.. but what is new?! It's that TOM again! I'm hoping that's why I gained.. but not riding anything on it..

This weekend has been so slow, painful (thanks to that TOM issue), sleepy, and food-crazy! 12 hour shifts are crazy to me.. they basically suck all the good hours of the day away.. by the time I go home at 7pm, because I've been sedentary all day, I just wanna go home and crash.. which is crappy, because I could go out, or work out.. instead, I'm in a funk and can't shake it off.. :(

But tomorrow is Monday! YAY! So much happens tomorrow! It's a new start to a new day.. it's the first day of the Spring semester.. it's the day I meet with my Vocational Rehab person.. it's the day I go back to the gym and kick my ass! :)

-----------------

Why is it our bodies crave crap when it's that TOM?! Honestly, I never want junk, aka salt-loaded junk, unless it's that TOM.. ugh! I really want a Big Red from the fountain right now.. SO BAD! But I will keep myself from getting one.. they taste gross now, which is kinda great.. lol

Okay, Sabrina, this part is for you! :) I FINALLY got to go to Whole Foods.. and OMG! I can't believe how much organic food costs! Honestly, I can't see spending that much money on something that won't be in my body for more than 48 hours.. but I did find some things I wanted to try.. like their Smoked Salmon Corn Chowder.. I got 16 oz (and split it into 2-8oz servings when I got home).. I ate about 4oz before I got too full, and didn't really enjoy it that much.. so I threw away the rest, because it can't be good on points, and it really isn't worth eating, so eh.. I also got a blueberry muffin! Okay, so blueberry muffins are my weakness! Honestly, I can eat a whole box of them by myself, if I let myself.. which I don't.. ANYMORE.. lol but look at this thing..

I mean, seriously, this looked so yummy! So I got it home, cut it into two pieces..

and tried a bite.. and was SERIOUSLY dissapointed.. BLEH! I threw both pieces away.. thankfully I only paid like $1.50 for it.. lol

I also got some of the protein powder trial packs that I wanted to go for originally.. can't wait to try them.. :)

-----------------

Is anyone else seeing crazy gas prices?! Does anyone else have cities like 20 miles apart that have a SIGNIFICANT price difference?! I do! I live in a small city.. and our gas prices are at $3.19 a gallon! That's for regular unleaded, people! So I went down to Sellersburg, and saw that their Shell station has gas for $2.97 a gallon! That's a $.22 difference per gallon!! AMAZING! I filled up at that last station.. lol

------------------

Sorry I didn't post my accountability pics for Friday and Saturday, but here's the one for today.. nightgown and all.. lmao.. as you can tell by the fake smile, I'm not too happy with myself after this weekend..

Words of the weekend..
** LAZY **

Muffin Making Monday..

and Friend Making Monday too!  Mondays just keep getting better and better.. well, as better as they possibly can get for being a Monday.. hehe

So if you read my previous post, you'll remember me saying something about making blueberry muffins.. and I made em.. I couldn't wait.. Just talking about them made me want one.. hehe..

I guess that's one thing I can't control.. the WANT for food.. but what I can control is how much, if any at all, I eat.. So I let myself eat ONE muffin with 1/2 tsp of butter.. because they just don't taste right without butter.. lol.. so that was 4 pts.. and since I haven't eaten my yogurt yet (from my food log), I figure I'm right on points-wise..  :)

Not sure if I've ever said anything about my fur-babies before, but I have 9 of them.. inside.. yeah, I know.. we get that a lot.. lol.. But one of them, Miko, decided to keep me company while I made these muffins..

He loves to be around your feet.. and he proceeded to do so the whole 16 minutes the muffins were baking.. did I mention he's HUGE?!  We call him our puppy, because he is the same size as a medium size dog.. lol.. But while I was waiting for the muffins to finish, and after Miko got bored playing with me, I figured I'd cut up some apples and look at my favorite cookbook of all time..

Onto the Friend Making Mondays.. Kenzie at All The Weigh posted a question for us to answer, so we can get to know other bloggers.. and of course, it's Thanksgiving food related.. lol

What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish?

 

My favorite dish is my mother's broccoli casserole.. she fixes it for Christmas, Thanksgiving, and usually for my birthday.. lol.. I LOVE it!!
