WW Week 3 and a Race Update

I went to my fourth meeting yesterday, rounding out week 3 of Weight Watchers. I lost 1.2 pounds this past week, with a total weight loss of 6.8 pounds. It's not a ton... but they say you're supposed to average .5-2 pounds per week, so I'm right on target.

Cue the cheesy high five moment!

I changed my tracking week so it ends on Saturday (it used to end on Wednesday, the night before my weigh-in). I figure I usually eat the most on Saturdays anyway... so now I won't be able to blow through all my extra points at the beginning of the "week" anymore.

In fact... I've been trying to save up all my extra points this week. I've only used 8 out of 49. The rest will go towards tomorrow's trip to Indianapolis to meet up with some friends. They expect some eating out, drinking out, and possibly even drinking in (one of them mentioned something about beer in the hotel hot tub!). So I'm gonna need all the extra points and all the will power I can muster!


In the past 3 weeks, I have tracked every morsel of food that goes into my mouth, and I have never gone over my points for the week... I don't want this week to be the exception!

On some triathlon and running related notes...

1) I signed up for the Geist Half Marathon again. I'm hoping to PR last year's time.

2) My uncle and my cousin signed up for their first triathlon! Don't you just love newcomers?! I think they did it on a dare from my Dad... but I'll take what I can get! Unfortunately, I was unable to sign up for the race with them... but I may have to drive the 5 hours to go watch, cheer, and take some awesome photos.
