Well, it was my first week on maintenance. One "plus" about being on maintenance is getting 4 extra daily points! ;) But eating more is a hard concept to rationalize! I don't want to eat more! What if I gain my weight back?
I think what happened with me is, even though my daily points were more, I probably ate around the same amount because I just didn't eat as many weekly points or exercise points. That wasn't my intention but it worked nicely.
I actually lost 1.8 lbs this week!
My dilemma now is whether I want to maintain at 160 (I'm 158.2 now) or try to get down to 155! I've never been 155 as long as I can remember! Or course, I've never been 158.2 as long as I can remember either!
I think what I might do is see how it goes. I do have a vacation planned in July, which is near the tail end of my 6 weeks of maintenance so I guess if I do lose a little now and gain a little back because of vacation, it will balance out and I'll make Lifetime! I would really like to stop paying for weight watchers after 3 years! Of course, don't get me wrong, it was worth EVERY PENNY! So, I'll try for maintenance and later if I want to lose 5 more lbs, I will.
Today was a day of Father's Day shopping! My dad's a follower of this blog so I can't tell you what he got! Have a great weekend.
Amanda, you're doing great. When I got to goal, I tried to maintain for the six weeks to get Lifetime, and I did, but still managed to lose a few pounds. Then I went on vacation as well, and was glad I had that little "cushion".

Wow, Amanda! You are on fire, girl! If you want to lose more, maybe now that the pressure of goal is off, it will be even easier for you! Regardless, you are doing awesome this first week in!
ReplyDeleteSounds good! i always put on a pound or two on vacation every when I try to do well.
