I'm Popeye the sailor man...
OK folks, time to get back on track. Gotta pull up my socks, lace up my running shoes and get my ass in gear!!! Also, need to detox the body - water is my friend. I need to remember that. I do not need fatty, sugary food. Veggies and fruit are good for me...they fill me up for minimal points. I need fibre, I need vitamins, I NEED to smarten the heck up.
There, now that the pep talk is over, I will share with you my menu for today and maybe my post title will make sense :)
B - ww toast with light PB and jam (3)
L- ww bagel with veggie turkey, ff cheese slice and zesty garlic sandwich pickles and deli mustard (4) + spinach salad with grape tomatoes and cucumber (0) + muffin (1)
D - Italian wedding soup made with veggie meatballs (it also has little pasta ball thingys and spinach!) (5) + spinach salad with apples and blue cheese (3) + 1 little slice of whole wheat bread (2)
S- weight watcher chocolate chip cookie (1) - my running partner got these for me in the states!!
S2- popcorn???
OK Weight Watchers, I'm ready!!!!
OH yeah, speaking of my running partner - she's back from vacation and we ran today :) I feel good!!!

Bizarre new weight loss secrets
#1. Drinking until 4am is OK as long as it is offset by dancing.
#2. Eating cake 3 times in a week will actually boost your metabolism.
#3. Not running will give your body a much needed rest and fool it into thinking it doesn't need muscle anymore.
Ok, ok all kidding aside, I have somehow managed to lose 1lb today.
This journey never seems to be predictable!
Bring on cheat night :)

Mmmmm...
Banana chocolate chip 1 point muffins - oh how I've missed you!! It's funny how you forget about a favourite, good-for-you recipe and then once you try it again, it tastes even better! I didn't have any applesauce so I ended up putting in an extra banana and I think they turned out even better! And so far, I've only had one.
Last night, we had company for dinner. I made a grilled veggie dish that was really yummy. And a marinated grilled portabello mushroom for myself - also yummy. Everyone else got steak! I love summer and BBQing!
It will be interesting to see how tomorrow's weigh in is going to go. I'm pretty sure the scale and I won't be the best of friends considering the food consumption and lack of runs. We shall see.

Did you miss me???
Whew! What a freakin' weekend! We had the successful Jack and Jill on Friday night (made about $1400 and that was without running the bar!). Then, since family was around for the Jack and Jill, we had an early Mother's day on Saturday. AND THEN, Sunday was my family's shower for the bride and groom. I had to go back to work for a rest! I seriously had a super hard time getting up this morning.
So, needless to say, Weight Watchers was kinda the last thing on my mind. Drinks were flowing. Food was good. The good news was that on Thursday, I lost a whole 0.2lbs...pfft!
My running partner is on holidays so I need to get some motivation and get my butt out there.
And that's my update!
I will try to be more present this week! Although, tomorrow I might not be around!!!
