catching up

This past week has been a disaster. I decided to take that advice that EVERYONE gives and not weigh myself everyday. It was a mess. I followed the plan exactly the same as I otherwise would, and I gained weight. Then yesterday I caved to a craving and had some mozzarella sticks and a couple tater tots from the Feve. I initially planned to do that and still keep my points for the day, but in the end, I probably ended up using some of my Flex Points -- I stopped counting.

And wouldn't you know it, today I had lost all the weight I gained plus a teensy bit more. It's back to daily weighing for me.

This will probably be my last post for close to a week, though. On Friday at the crack of dawn, I leave for San Diego for the weekend. I'll be at my cousins' B'nai Mitzvah, which means that every meal while I'm in California -- dinner Friday, lunch Saturday, dinner Saturday, and brunch Sunday -- will be provided for me. I probably couldn't stay on points if I wanted to, but quite frankly, I don't want to. I believe that vacations are not for WW.

I know I'll gain weight while I'm there, but I'm also looking at this as a fresh start. Last time I went to San Diego, in January 2004, was when I really fell off the program for the first time and never got back to it. I'm looking at this as an opportunity to go there and come home and get right back to it.
