Week three of Weight Watchers and this DietBet and I am down 11lbs!! I got my '10 lb' ribbon at my meeting yesterday, and it made me feel so great about myself. BUT it is very annoying that my home scale does not reflect the same losses. According to that scale, I've only lost 8lbs. So I'm not sure what that is about. But I am still going to keep pushing, regardless of what my home scale says, or if I'm not able to 'win' this bet because of my crappy scale.
I am having so much fun grocery shopping and finding new recipes to try out! I made a binder full of crock pot recipes that I can try, and I've been aiming to do one a week at least. Hopefully once I get a few recipes in my memory banks instead of having to look up the recipe at the store, I will be able to pick up ingredients for them a few at a time and start to stock pile ingredients so that I will always have something good to cook for myself!
I think part of my success in this attempt at Weight Watchers (after having succeeded, then failed, then tried again and failed almost immediately) is that I now have a kitchen to put food in and cook it, and having the ability to pack a lunch for work. It's also a big help that my roommates are willing to eat the foods I make and celebrate my victories when I have them. Having a support system is definitely something that I was missing in the past, and I am glad that I have one again.
Keeping my chin up for week four, and really hoping that I can knock out the last 3lbs to win this thing!
