I’ve been back on track for a few days, but needed to be doing it for myself before I started giving out numbers again. Still weighing in around 155 (up half a pound), but on the positive side, half a pound’s not so bad for all the bad eating I felt like I was doing, and now I’m feeling a little more focused.

One thing I decided I needed to do was not loosen up so much on Thursdays and Fridays, the weekend around here. I hadn’t been keeping track of points, or I had been and had been blowing by them, which psychologically set me up for a fall for the rest of the week. So I’ve decided if I’m going to have an Ice Cream Day or something, it needs to be Tuesday or Wednesdays, when I’ve saved up enough points toward the end of the week to have a little treat. I was doing that this spring, and it seemed to work. Especially because there’s also a little “I don’t want to blow it *now*!” if I wait til the end of my weigh-in week that helps keep me on track. So, yah.

  1. What was your reasoning for not having your weigh-in week start at the beginning of your ‘work week’ (Saturday)? I know you had given it consideration. I do the ‘save big treats’ for the end of the weigh-in week, but it nicely coincides with my weekend, and I think that works well for me.

  2. Mostly I’m still using Thursdays as my weigh-in day because I quit eating sweets on a Thursday, and I like symmetry.
