GIVE ME BACK MY POINTS!

WOW I am inconsistent with the posting.

Well here we are, another Wednesday another weigh-in. Only 1/2 pound this week, which falls solidly into the category of "unsurprising". It also falls into the category of "bad timing." Let's take the first one. I have been doing a strange job of hitting my points this week. As in, I hit them, I think I'm within them, but...it's like 34 points of carbs or something. Reason being there are no fresh vegetables in my house. I wanted to go grocery shopping, but I'm leaving for a 12 day trip and I didn't want to make a huge run before that. Obviously this does not answer everything. "So...why didn't you buy groceries a week ago and eat those?" Yes, yes, these are all good questions. I just sort of...didn't. Now that I'm not in school and not crazy busy and have loads of (unemployed) free time, I can't seem to be bothered to do anything at all. It's a conundrum. The busier I am, the more I accomplish. So basically this week has been nothing but a cycle of practice, occasional gym, and Netflix. And actually room cleaning, but Netflix was on during most of that, so same file.

The baby tiny loss is bad timing because tomorrow at 3:30 am the shuttle picks me up to take me to the airport for my first trip home since Christmas. Yay! But this trip falls over my birthday (a day I DO NOT intend to count, so there) as well as a crazy family wedding. So...I was sort of hoping I would lose a little bit more before I left so then if I gained a pound it wouldn't be such a big thing. I doubt I'll be very successful at losing while I'm home. I think I GAINED most of this weight (well...that's not totally true, but some of it) while I was home on my year off last year. Home makes me do nothing but sit around and stuff my face. Which can be fun, but not helpful.

I also won't have gym access while I'm home since 24 hour doesn't exist around me. I would say I'll go for walks, which still may happen, but the weather back home has been in the 90s every single day. We have a treadmill in the basement but...look, it's creepy down there. There are spiders. No one ever goes down there anymore since my brother isn't home to play video games and I think the spiders have taken over, I see way more than I did when I was a kid. I don't like it. But I'll try.

So yes, bad timing on my part for not busting my butt more this week and putting me in a better place. (Also, this is stupid, but I wanted to be able to say "I've lost 35." And I'm at 34, which is great, but "35" is a better number. I am quite happy that I'm back to a whole number of weight. The ".5" was bothering me. Am I crazy? Oh you better believe it, but at least I'm aware of THAT situation).

And for the post title: stupid Weight Watchers lowered me to 33 points a day. I NEEDED THOSE 7 A WEEK, DAMMIT! POOR TIMING! I really haven't gotten the hang of these points since they dipped me below 35. I don't know why this is such a thing for me. 38 was awesome, can we go back to that? Pleeeeaasseee????
