Terrific Tuesday

I'm not sure how another week has gone by but here we are again!  At least today is off to a better start than yesterday.  Yesterday being a Monday was bad enough.  To add to the Monday morning drag I hit "off" instead of "snooze" on my alarm....and it was a dark, rainy morning.  So, do you think I hopped out of bed bright and early?  Nope I fell back to sleep, quite soundly I might add.  For once I was thankful for noisy kids and a dog who woke me up. 

This week was my first weigh in at Weight Watchers after doing a week of maintenance.  I was curious how it went.  They advise to begin maintenance by adding 4 points to your daily total.  If you gain weight, you will adjust down, if you lose weight you will adjust up.  In the beginning of the week I had trouble eating those extra 4 points.  (I know right?  Who ever would have thought those words would come out of my mouth.  However, after a few months of dieting, I finally learned how to feel full while losing weight and not to eat when I'm not hungry.)  Then there was the weekend (I started celebrating my birthday a little early) where I wasn't so "good".  So, curiousity piqued I stepped on that scale to find myself .8 pounds down!  I'm very excited to have survived the first week of maintenance!

On another note, I belong to a fabulous community Trekaroo where parents provide reviews and tips about traveling with kids.  They asked me to contribute to an article on spring break destinations that was being featured on another blog.  You can check it out over at Ciao Bambino.
