A few things.  I'm changing my 'official' weigh-in day back to Sunday.  I don't know why, but I REALLY hated Monday weigh-in as my official date.  It just feels better to do it on a Sunday.

Also, I decided to switch plans on WW.  They recently reorganized some things and now have 3 plans to pick from:  blue (the original), green, or purple.  I'm going to try purple for 2 weeks and see how it goes.  Currently, on blue, you get 23 points a day.  With purple, you only get 16 points per day, BUT a lot of grains and starchy vegetables are on the 'free' list - like brown rice and potatoes.  Even whole wheat pasta!  So I'm going to give it 2 weeks and see how it goes.  I do love my carbs.

Things I enjoyed this week:

FOUR pieces of deep dish pizza (not all at once lol)
Chocolate
Lots of cereal (mixed in with yogurt)
Cheeseburger and french fries (split with my husband)
A mixed drink

I eat this almost every morning, whether at home or at work:


It's scrambled eggs, pinto beans, red chile, and cheese.  4 points and it is SUPER filling.  At work I eat it around 8:00 and I usually don't get hungry again until 1:00 or 1:30.

This is also amazing and my stomach appreciates it:



And THESE.  They are 2 points each and worth it.  Even if you don't like dark chocolate....trust me, these are delicious:



I got them at Costco.

I also had to put sizers on my rings.  They were WAY too lose for my comfort.  So I ordered ring sizers on Amazon.  They work perfectly!


I'll keep you posted on plan purple!
