Third Step

So yesterday I logged my food, stayed on track and even enjoyed two vodka martini's and a late night yogurt w/ waffle cone treat. By bed time I had 3 points to spare!! I have had emails, PMs, text messages, and a phone call all from friends in my life-line ready to support me in any manner they can! I really appreciate all this love and offers of support. I know that this is the beginning and I am gung-ho! about the start, however, I am also fully aware that every great start has a bump just around the corner and I'm ready for that too!!

So I decided to make up a "clean" grocery list. To  me that means as
many ZERO food products that I can get in my basket the more food I can
consume and save points. This may be an odd way to tackle the WW plan,
but it's my plan. I strive weekly to have left over points so that I can
have my dirty martini. But if it boils down to cheese cake or a
martini, I'll take the cake please!! LOL After surfing the web, walking
the dogs, and doing a few choirs, I'm ready to eat lunch before the 4pm
Publix run.

I am feeling full and no cravings. I really thought that I was going to
crave a salty snack after the meal, but it wasn't there. SUCCESS! I
shopped in Publix, got everything that I needed to make my week of "new
food choices' go as planned. I unloaded everything, ate 20 Almonds as a
snack and started prepping for dinner.

Meeting friends for dinner would be a breeze! I've eaten, I'm full and I can't wait to have my vodka martini with the points I have saved up (8) and the 41 (weekly) I can still use. My mood is upbeat and I'm ready. After I had my first martini I realized that I needed to eat something due to the mostly veggie dinner, I was going to be in trouble if I didn't eat. My choices were hummus, pita bread, and grilled chicken breast. I used my left over weekly points for this.

As the night wore on I wanted to top my night off with a health snack. I used a few of my weekly points and got a menchie yogurt in a waffle cone cup with berries, chocolate pieces, and a small amount of pecans. Cost me 4 pts.

Looks like I'm on a clear path to success without starving!!
