Week 2 - 271.2 - -8 pounds

Wow, what a first week I had.  Down 8 pounds!   I started last week with the goal of tracking every day.  I did and guess what, it worked.  The weekends are always the hardest for me and this past weekend we had a birthday party in Thibodaux and also went to Chili's.  I looked online before I went to Chili's and knew exactly what to eat.  I was in shock at the points value on things I normally would've eaten.  There have been times we've been to Chili's and have eaten the points for three days.   Sunday I skipped the weekly donut trip and ate breakfast at home.  My parents boiled crawfish and I went there prepared to make a Weight Watchers recipe as a snack.  Everyone loved the ham and cheese twists from Emilybites.com.   I also cooked chicken enchilada stuffed pasta shells from Emilybites.  I've eaten that this week, a serving of three shells is 8 points.  

I've started something new with my water intake.  I have been writing the top of the bottle the number of bottles and it has helped me to keep track.   I've been trying to drink a minimum of 6 bottles a day.  

I haven't been exercising much.  I had chest pains on Saturday and ended up going see my GP Monday.  He did an EKG and that was fine and now I have to follow up with a stress test next Monday.   I think it's going to come back just as stress but I'd rather be safe than sorry.  

Since I was successful with last weeks goal I am going to add on to it.  Last weeks goal was to track daily, I'm going to try and track again and make sure I drink at least 6 bottles of water a day.  

Until next week...  Here's to seeing less of me... JPo
