A week in and feeling good

The week started with us using up all the rubbish food that we had bought because we had not planned to be following Weightwatchers; spur of the moment kind of people that we are!

Anyway, I kind of abandoned hope of losing any weight in the first week as we hoovered up Bon Mamman desserts and bags of Walkers crisps. You can eat what you like, but spending 7 points of my 32 on a coffee dessert that doesn't even touch the sides is a hell of a waste.

Despite the lashings of 'wrong' food, I have tracked every last morsel, which I've never done before and consequently used up 60 of my 42 weekly points too (!!)

As you can see that's a pretty hefty deficit - but it could have been oh, so much worse if I had indulged in the Bon Mamman! By Thursday, I had been shopping and bought in the healthy stuff and the points grabbers were diminished as we had ploughed our way through them, and i have stuck to my daily points since then. Hubby has almost twice the daily points I do, so he is making the most of it at lunchtime when I don't have to see!

I have charged my fitbit and been wearing it all week, at work, in the garden and at night recording my sleep and I have earned 53 of my 21 fitpoints. I don't quite know what that means, but I'm hoping it goes some way to evening out my points deficit - perhaps even cancelling it out. Maybe.

The scales will tell...
