WIW

Last week: 189.5

But then last Thursday I saw 187.8 (yay), however that was before a night of wine and pecan pie with friends, then a Brunch Fest on Saturday, and Super Bowl food Sunday – although we made weight watchers friend options – just eaten in large quantities!

So Monday I get on the scale to see the damage and it says like 196?!?!? I knew it was likely water weight in addition to my weekend eating. I was disappointed but, I was diligent with points and workouts so I was relieved to get on the scale this morning.

Today: 188.3

Change: -1.2 lbs

We’ll see how I fair at Weight Watchers tomorrow.

Freddie had a vet follow up on Friday. Vet called on Saturday to tell us Fred’s new meds are working and his blood work looked good. He lost some weight and is starting to grow back some hair which are both good signs. We head back for another ultrasound in mid-March to see how things are looking on the inside. T took this news as permission to get back to screwing with Freddie! #fredfiles

Good with the Bad

It’s only fair to share my fails here too. Yesterday I had a 60 point Weight Watchers day. At least I tracked it. Got drinks after work with a friend at a place where a mutual friend works. I was okay with bar bites and wine, but then I asked about dessert (which is not like me). We couldn’t decide, so my friend brought out a brownie and pecan pie. The slice of pie was 21 points. LAWD. 

I am going to a “Brunch Fest” in Union Market tomorrow, it wasn’t cheap, but I’m hoping to make okay choices. I’d rather each a bunch things for 21 points then 1 slice of pie.

Skin Routine

I’m also pleased to report since January I’ve been stepping up my skincare night cream game. Since I’ve been working out after work so frequently I’ll shower when I get home and put my night cream on then (like 8pm). This has proved helpful since I usually would put it on right before bed, but then my face would feel too greasy (in general I’m NOT a lotion person, I don’t like to feel greasy ever). By putting on my night cream at 8pm it seeps in more before actual bedtime at like 11pm.

Learned something from FB today!
FASCINATING!
Considering we talk some much about “lbs” here I’m surprised I’ve never given much thought to the abbreviation, aside from a fleeting probably some Latin nonsense thought.
This is especially fun because I love all things Astrology!
