Seriously, why do I even try to do these logs anymore? I never finish them.
(Well, because when I do, it works. When I try and fail about halfway through the week, it still kind of works. So I soldier on.)
I'm abandoning the Wendie plan, though, in favor of a meal plan. I don't have anything against Wendie, but history has shown that I don't do very well following it. I mean, I have no doubt it would work if I did. I just don't.
Instead, I've planned everything I'm going to put in my mouth and how I'm going to move my body from here until Sunday (by the time I planned Sunday, I was completely braindead and nothing sounded appetizing for Monday...I'll pick that up on Friday or Saturday). My points values still vary day to day, and they still fall within the limits of the Flexpoints plan. However, I'm not worried about hitting a specific target each day, or varying my numbers in any particular order. Saturday is still my highest day, but the other days vary. On my current plan, I use only 18 flexpoints between now and Sunday. To some, that seems like a lot...to me, it's a miracle.
Shutting up now.

*I know these (and possibly other) numbers don't add up right. What happened was, I updated at ww etools, then took the totals and dumped them over here without changing the food listings. I did not eat what I planned, but I ate mostly on plan. If that makes any sense.
**I only drink one kind of latte, in one size. Grande, sugar-free vanilla, non-fat. With a dash of cinnamon. I got tired of typing all that every day. :)
