I need to slow down.

Wow it has been a long week! I really do apologize for not keeping up on my blog, it is not intentional. I am going to try harder next week but I am reading your blogs and trying to comment as much as I can! I think that school is stealing all my brain strength!

Ok on the food front I have been sticking to my points and choosing pretty healthy foods. I have had to eat lunches and dinners on campus a few times just because I some of the stuff I bought to lunches went bad really fast. I have been sticking to sandwiches because I feel like I can figure out the points more accuratly. When I could get off campus to grab something I grabbed subway so basically a lot of sandwiches this week.

We went to the olive garden last night for date night. I checked out the points for my meal online, I splurged on the lunch portion of the chicken alfredo (18points) one breadstick (3) and salad of course. I was able to stop at 1/2 of the pasta all of the grilled chicken in it. I had really filled up on salad before my food got there so that was good. I had enough points to cover everything so I feel ok about it.

I am babysitting tonight in a healthy house so that is good. I plan on getting a lot of my homework/studying done and working on my grocery list/food menus for the week.

Tomorrow morning I will weigh in, I am hoping to see a lower number but I'm not sure it will happen. It is really hard to understand why I am not losing even though I am eating my points. I guess next week I am try to not eat my flex 35 and see if that helps. I also need to incorporate more veggies this week. I think that I will try to be home more this week and not take any extra babysitting jobs so that I can focus on eating healthy and packing my lunches. The extra money is nice but I am just trying to do to much as once.

All right folks that I all I have for my week recap..see I told you there wasn't much going on besides school! Take care.
