Hard Work & Dedication

Yup, I am being cheesy & quoting Dolvett from the Biggest Loser.  Last Monday I said that I would track every nibble & bite both on MyFitnessPal & Weight Watchers.   I struggle portion control and I had hoped that tracking my food intake this way it would help me stay on track.

It was tedious at times but I am so worth the effort.  I found that by tracking calories as well as points, I was making healthier choices.   This tracking technique paid off as I lost 3.4 pounds this week which makes for a 81.2 pound loss in the past 16 months.   While I did make healthier choices, I never felt deprived during the week.   I also worked out 5 days this week.   

My plan for this week:  repeat what I did last week.   I have my first 10K race on Superbowl Sunday & I am nervous about it because my left foot has been bothering me a bit.  But I got some gel insoles which I used yesterday for the first time & they seemed to have helped.   

Here's hoping for another great week!
