Hey, look. Nothing happened this week. ARGH. So, I didn't eat the best this week. I'm off track with my workouts and my healthy eating. Should I be proud it's my first plateau? I dunno. All I know is if I could just lose 1.4 !@*$%ing pounds, I would hit 20 lost!

I haven't been eating healthy enough. I haven't been going over points, but I also haven't been eating filling foods. This week could be known as the most busiest week ever. I have 40 hours of training for a new volunteer position. Plus 9 articles to submit (3 down, 6 to go). I haven't been exercising as much because of the heat.

So... goals? Starting next Monday, we have a pretty blank schedule. I'm going to sit down over the weekend or on Monday and make a meal plan. Plan out our dinners for at least 2 weeks, use some of the recipes in my Weight Watchers Cookbook. I'm also implementing breakfast rules again. For a while, I was eating good healthy breakfasts every day including a fruit every morning. I need to start that again. We'll also resume the 'every dinner includes a veggie' rule.

I am also going to talk to one of my fellow mommas to see if someone can watch Sam for 1.5 hours at least twice a week so I can go to the gym. If it's not too hot, I can still go for walks outside, but I need to have SCHEDULED times to go and work out. I will also try to resume going to Zumba class on Thursday evenings and put that on the calendar. If I can do Zumba and go to the gym twice a week, then fit in walks and Wii fit when it's not too hot out, that should get me back on track.

I did get SOME good news today! We just finished our Spring Fever Challenge at my WW meetings. We had to fill out a sheet every day - we got points for exercising, tracking, commenting on our leader's blog, and eating filling foods. Plus there were weekly trivia questions at the meetings. In any case, I WON for my meeting! I got a prize - a 30 minute reflexology foot massage and a copy of the newest WW mag to read while I relax. WOOT! I am very excited and can't wait to have a professional pamper my tootsies!

In other news, I have an appointment with the endocrinologist on Thursday and forgot to go get my blood drawn. Grr. So I need to call and see if I can reschedule the appointment because I really want to have my bloodwork back before I go in so we can discuss the results.

I wore a shirt today and I swear it was tighter last time I wore it. So, that's something, right?!
