How many points is a bowl of shut the hell up???

So two months in... and still pumped as ever to keep it up. I thought by now I would be back stopping for fast food 4 times a week because it's just easier... but in fact I'm still doing pretty good. 

I'm sure I'm driving JB CRAZY talking about Weight Watcher Points, foods that I bought, and workout routines. I'm waiting for him to ask me "How many points is a bowl of shut the hell up?" He is being awesome along w/ everyone else. I was worried about people asking me how things were going and not being able to have good news. It's a good motivator. If you ask me and I give you the death stare... just walk away would be my words of advice.... just walk away. :) I won't make this blog about my relationship... but check out the awesome plant I got for Valentine's Day!!!!

What I am finding is the most important thing is............. BREAKFAST! I have never been much for breakfast. Not that I don't like breakfast foods, just not fond of eating right away in the morning. So all those doctors and nutritional specialists were right? Breakfast is a good thing? Who woulda thought? Eating breakfast has helped me not make bad choices at lunch because I'm not starving like I used to be. Eating a boiled egg along w/ some yogurt and berries curbs the appetite until lunch so I only want a sandwich or salad. Two months ago I'd be running down to the cafeteria and grabbing anything I could not to be so hungry. (I will admit that I had nachos today and they were fantastic :)  

Pinterest has been a real asset in learning some new workout routines, awesome calorie friendly recipes, and success stories that I could read for days. I plan on being one of those about a year from now. :)

New favorite snack that isn't 250 calories a serving - POP CHIPS! More specifically... Sour Cream and Onion Pop Chips. 22 chips for 3 points (Weight Watcher speak) is FANTASTIC! Pair these w/ some hummus and I have my new favorite snack.

Another great thing I am eating for dinner that has a lot of protein and low in points (3 per) is these awesome chicken sausages. Very flavor full and filling. I don't eat it w/ a bun or anything - simply dip in mustard. I'm a big fan. That w/ some b-sprouts and mushrooms and I have a 3 point dinner. Lets be honest... I'll have 2 sausages to make it 6. :)

I can finally tell that I've lost a few pounds so that is helping me keep on track. First few weeks were hard; you see pounds come off on the scale but I didn't look or feel any different; that has changed now! ON MY WAY!

Thank you everyone for the kind words about my blog. I'll try and post more often but been pretty busy! Last weekend went up to JB's parents farm and loaded wood for 2 days. Best workout ever - don't tell him though or he will want me to go back and do more. hehehe ;)

ON MY WAY!!!!
