McFatty Sick Day

I'm sick...and tired. I want to go back to bed and I probably will because I'm so light headed I don't even want to move.

I'm on antibiotics and OTCs right now to get rid of this mess but it just sucks! It's also raining and nasty outside and that makes me more sleepy.

I hope none of you are sick, If you are I'm so sorry and I hope you feel better soon.

Anywho I don't want to leave you without my McFatty post so here it is.

Yesterday was weigh day but I didn't track it. I was at my Aunt's house and refused to believe what her scale told me. I was glad this morning too because boy was her scale off!

This morning I got up and got on my scale, it read 155.0! I've officially lost my first 5 pounds! I was so happy to see that and it makes me feel great to know that even though I only lost one pound this week, I'm closer to my ultimate goal.

I am now on week 3...I think ha-ha and I hope it's as good if not better than last week! I'm making my grocery list now and am planning out our meals for the week.

This week my biggest problem was eating out. I didn't think about that until we were on the road to Houston and needed to stop somewhere for dinner on the way.

We ended up at Burger King and while I got an unhealthy Whopper with cheese and french fries, I only ate 2 or 3 bites of the burger and a few fries. To say the least, I was totally disgusted. It was the worst burger I've eaten in a long time. I was happy to know that I had points left over that day and wasn't really hungry anyway.

Saturday I ate cereal and then snacked on crackers and goldfish snacks in the car. When we finally ate "lunch" at 4:30 we went to a barbecue place and I ordered chopped beef and sausage. I ate all of the beef and one piece of sausage and ended up still having points left over at the end of the day. I think that was because we didn't really eat lunch.

All in all it was a great week and I feel like this week will be another good one, I just need to concentrate on getting well.

Do you have these same problems? Do you have any tips on eating out and staying in your points range? Did you reach your goal for the week?
