100 Day Challenge Day 27: A Hungry Day but In Control



Tuesday I had a hungry day on the 100 Day Challenge. Sometimes I get them, and constantly want to eat. This isn’t just grab a snack or anything. These are the days where I want small meals constantly throughout the day.

It’s something that I really love about Weight Watchers. I don’t need to feel guilty for eating or having a hungry day. I can have them and stay in control the whole time. I know I’d said yesterday that I wanted to stick within my daily pro points, but I was able to make the decision to go into my weekly pro points very slightly again.

I finished the day on 32 pro points, so went another six into my weekly pro points allowance. That’s fine. I still have 23 weekly pro points left, and that is plenty for the next three days. Today I do plan on using a few more because it is one of those days—busy and will be eating dinner late so it won’t be the healthiest (but will still be in control). Thursday and Friday are going to be quieter days for me (for once), so I expect those two days to be lower pro point days. I’m also getting to the gym, and will be able to earn activity pro points on both days.

See, it is possible to lose weight and still have a life. My whole day doesn’t revolve around food—and I never wish that I could have something. I know that I can, in moderation. I know that a hungry day isn’t going to be the end of my diet. It’s just all about staying in control; and being in control helps in so many other areas of my life.

It’s all about a summer challenge at Weight Watchers, with eight weeks to go. I’m asking all my members to set goals, and it’s only right that I set my own goal. For the last few weeks, I’ve just had the goal to lose a pound a week. I’m happy with that because it will get me down to where I want to be. It will give me that 4st weight loss in total.

What will your weight week goal be? Why not set one on the 100 Day Challenge with me and we can work together?

The Problems with Crash Diets

Many people want to lose weight quickly. While this is possible, it’s not always the healthy option. Crash diets are on the top of people’s lists because they help them shed the pounds in weeks. The problem is they are extremely dangerous to your body; especially if you follow them for the long term. Crash diets can help to kick start weight loss but only when done sensibly. You’ll need to check with your doctor first to make sure you’re following the right plan for your body’s health. Here are a few risks that you’ll be taking if you don’t follow them the healthy way. While you will lose weight quickly with crash diets, you won’t keep the weight off for the long term. These weight loss plans are also known as yo-yo diets because you’ll put the weight back on just as quickly as you lose it. While you’re cutting the calories down, you’re not changing the way you eat for the long term; when you go back to eating normally, you’ll go back to your normal easting pattern. Another probl

100 Day Challenge Day 28: Staying In Control on a Busy Day

Image
I mentioned yesterday on the 100 Day Challenge that Wednesday was going to be busy. I expected to eat the majority of my weekly pro points that I had left. In the end, I only went into a small amount of them. The whole way I did that was by staying in control and making good choices . That’s an important part of losing weight. Yes, I could have stuffed my face with chocolate because there were periods when I really wanted to, but I didn’t. I didn’t deprive myself either. When I wanted chocolate, I told myself that I would get it later (knowing that I’d have some later anyway).  It doesn’t have to be boring making good choices. Rather than having a bit of chocolate at the end of the night, I shared a punnet of strawberries with my husband and daughter. They gave me the sweet kick that I needed to finish off the day. They were juicier and more delicious than a bar of chocolate, too. While doing all that, I’m also drinking more water. I’ve even decided to start my day tod
