Getting in Shape: End of Week 6

[cathschaffstump]

Wow. So, there was this week where we came off the Con, and I only exercised for 6 points. That was kind of pathetic. I was colding, so there you go.

And then there was the week of Thanksgiving, where I maxed out at an incredible 41 points, walking around airports and Disney and the like. And yes, I was pretty honest about it, neither exaggerated or low key.

This week we're more or less back at a normal pace.

How's about the weight then? At the end of Week 5, there was no meeting, because of the holiday. That brings us to this Tuesday, the end of Week 6.

Beginning Wii Weight: 223.8 (My heaviest ever after this summer.)
Wii Weight on 11-20-13: 215.4
Total: 8.4 pounds LOST

Weight Watchers on Initial Weigh In: 224
Weight Watchers on 11-19-13: 217.4
Total: 6.6 pounds LOST

The Weight Watcher's scale picks up a tiny loss, but the home scale a tiny gain.

What happened: Disney was a food orgy, but I counted all the food and exercise. I did attempt some moderation and parsimony, but I also failed (Cuban food, ice cream, etc). The coolest thing, though, is that when I stepped on the scale at the first available opportunity, Monday, I HAD NOT GAINED ANY WEIGHT ON THE DISNEY VACATION. So that's the advantage of maintaining 215 pounds, as to, say 165. That's not great news, but it doesn't suck either.

Now that I am back in the land of real people eating real food on a real budget, I am much more optimistic about next week.

It's important to note two things here:

As far as Weight Watchers is concerned, my only movement is down.

Today on the Wii, I weight 213.2 pounds, which bodes well for my weigh in next week, as I have no plans to return to Cuban Food Paradise (Bongo's), Be Our Guest, or even T-Rex (an extinction every dinner!) for quite some time.

Gods, I love theme dining. Dinner under a glacier or in the Beast's torn to shreds study. Yeah. Home just doesn't have atmosphere.

Okay. So, next week, an earlier report.
