Check if you ate 3 meals including breakfast - check and then some

Check if you ate one or two low Point snacks per day to replace the high-fat extras you regularly eat. - the popcorn was good since I normally eat REGULAR butter and the 1 fudsicle was good

Check if you ate 2 - 3 fruit servings. - a few blueberries in my pancakes and 1/2 of an apple

Check if ate reasonably at your daily main meal, and did not gorge. - i ate much lighter than usual b/c the soup did fill me up

Check if you ate 2 - 3 vegetable servings. - check

Check if you took a quality multivitamin/antioxidant (important for metabolism/health) - check . . . right now

Number of times you left food on your plate (show who's in control) - yes, i didn't finish the soup i ate for lunch

Check if you made an extra effort to be more active, such as picking up, wrestling with the kids, doing one 'odd job' per day, cleaning that closet or workroom, fixing something, just moving around instead of hanging. - i worked on gathering and organizing things for a yardsale I'm doing next month.

Check here if you focused on and walked with perfect posture today, sucking in your gut and holding shoulders high and back perfectly straight. (You'll look like you just lost 5 pounds if you just do this last one) - I did think about this a few times today after reading this last night

What were the biggest obstacles you had this week? - not eating junk when I crave it

What can you do to try and remove those obstacles? - stash more healthy options in the house, drink more water

What did you feel good about this week? - that i did get a bunch of clothes tagged and priced, i did get more hangers, and we spent time together with the girls taking them to the park :)

Document any other comments or thoughts here. Discuss your feelings and your commitment to keep this thing going, so you can be healthier and feeling better than ever. Discuss the importance to yourself in reaching your goal, the benefits you will receive, how you will improve and extend your life:

It is very important to me that I set a better example of healthy living for my two girls than I currently am. I want to show them how to stay fit and eat healthy and that food is not a sport. I want to lose weight so I will look better and feel better. I am committed to doing this but some days it's very hard to fight temptation when I feel like I've "earned" a treat and that just a little won't hurt. REPEAT FROM YESTERDAY!
