Weekends are my Enemy

Marissa Miller, Victoria's Secret Model. She is my bikini inspiration!



When it comes to weight loss, weekends are definitely the enemy. I got this article emailed to me from Weight Watchers, and it's like they were reading my mind...

Weekends are synonymous with fun, friends and eating out, so it’s easy to think you can’t stay on track. What you probably don’t realize is that weekends are a time to fit in additional activity and a chance to cook your meals whether it’s for the day or for the week ahead. Successful members eventually change their attitudes to see the opportunities a weekend presents rather than the challenges it contains.

I always look forward to spending time with friends, and that normally revolves around eating and drinking. Maybe instead of meeting up for dinner, we meet later for drinks and eat dinner at home. I think I can budget 4 points for 2 glasses of Chardonnay on the weekends. It's also hard because my mom and my in-laws love meeting for breakfast. This starts the day off with a TON of points already.

With the summer months FINALLY here, I will just have to incorporate more walks with hubby and the dog, and maybe meeting at the pool.

Changing bad habits are hard, but I know it will be worth it.

  1. You would be amazed at how much money and calories this saves. Honestly when you have a weight loss or fitness goal, eatin gout is your enemy. Even when you think you did well, you could have done a whole lot better.
