Tuesday's Journal

Yesterday I rode the recumbant bike for a change of pace. I did it for 30 minutes going as fast as I could push my legs. I was dripping sweat, which is always a pleasant thing. But I was able to get a good workout. So I ended up earning 4 activity points instead of my usual 2, woohoo!
I weighed myself this morning and haven't lost anything yet this week, but I am borderline. So I am confident that I will lose by Friday (assuming I don't go on a binge)

Here is my food journal:

Pancakes with syrup and milk- 12

TINY piece of cake-3
Nachos, small amount-7

Homemade stew with 1 homemade biscuit-5

Cocoa with Cool Whip-1.5

Points Used: 28.5
Points Allowance and Activity Points Used: 4.5
Points Allowance left: 6

I am trying to be happy with only one pound a week, but part of me wants to lose it faster. But I KNOW for my sagging skin and for permanent weight loss, I need to go slowly. It's hard not to get discouraged though when I look in the mirror.
