Weigh-In Wednesday and Incentive Plan

Lost one pound this week, not bad considering I had a run in with some cookie dough last week ~Darn it!~ but I did really well yesterday.  I drank all my water...yah....applause...woo hoo... and I didnt snack after dinner which was a big deal.  I have always craved a sweet after a meal.  In fact I just told my hubby a few days ago that I think I was conditioned to have a sweet after meals due to always having them growing up.  It was so funny, last night soon after dinner I could hear my mom asking my son if he had any valentine's chocolate left that she could have....LOL....I had to chuckle when I heard that.  I too was craving something but I told myself I wouldn't snack after dinner.  One of the last things I said to my husband as he dozed off was how happy I was that I didn't snack........ OK wait a minute...I just recalled that I woke up in the middle of the night and had a sugar free pudding.  Umm, can we not count that?? At least it was a better choice than a bowl of cereal or PB&J sandwich.

I am debating on whether or not to go to the gym today.  I am almost over my cold.  I also have to do the grocery shopping today and take my son to Youth night tonight, so hmmm, guess I will decide after a shower.

So, I have decided to reward each and every pound.  You might recall me mentioning how it was tough to get back to the gym to face a certain trainer, well, I did and he was just glad I was back.  I also, not sure why, but I asked him if he has ever trained someone with Lap Band before and he said Yes.  I mentioned I was possibly getting it.  So that was interesting.  I trained with him for three months last year and loved it.  So I have decided that for every pound I lose I am going to put $5 in a jar to save up for training sessions.  Pretty great idea if I do say so myself.
