It's just another manic Monday...

(yes, you can start singing along!)

...but it's a weighing Monday, so here is our latest numbers.

Jonathan:
- Starting weight (1/1/2009): 341
- Last week's weight: 339
- Current weight: 336
Total pounds lost: -5

Debbie:
- Starting weight (1/1/2009): 230
- Last week's weight: 227
- Current weight: 223
Total pounds lost: -7

We are well on our way to weight loss, so I'm off to go make Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas for us for dinner tonight (at 6 pts a serving). Adios! :-)

Weigh In Day!

It's Monday!

Translation:

Get your rear end on the scale and see what they numbers say.

I've actually looked forward to it this week; even with only a few days of being back on WW, I feel a big difference. I'm also learning how dependant I am on food, which is crazy! But about three days in, I was going stark-raving mad on craving mood-swings. It's much better today, and I was even remotely tempted to dive into the chocolate cake at work, which was a first in a long time. I think my blood-sugar must be starting to balance out a little bit. I'm even starting to be more disciplined about eating breakfast and lunch again, which is a first in months.

Anyway (sorry to bore you!), here are our most current numbers:

Jonathan:
- Starting weight (1/1/2009): 340
- Last week's weight: 341
- Current weight: 339
Total pounds lost: -1

Debbie:
- Starting weight (1/1/2009): 230
- Last week's weight: 227
- Current weight: 224
Total pounds lost: -6

Yeah for us! A total of three pounds for the both of us, which is good since we only had half a week last week (we started back on WW last Wednesday). We are off and running strong towards a new week!

Okay, so it's been five months since we posted.

Not intentionally.

Life got crazy.

We made excuses.

I've picked up some really bad eating habits over the past few months in my new job (such as living on coffee all day, and then picking up take-out on the way home, and we both end up overeating on pretty unhealthy food).

So we started Weight Watchers again as of this week. Jonathan's been on and off of it, based on my eating habits, and it's been very hard for him to eat well when I'm not. We're learning this is something we have to do together, though it kills me as he gets 44 points each day and I only get 28. :-p Stepping on the scale to weight was scary, though, and a bummer - I'd gained back 8 pounds over the past five months that I had lost this fall. But we've done fairly well this week, and we'll post our weekly weigh-in this upcoming Monday, so stay tuned!
