Weight Watchers - Week 6

I just got back from my meeting and all I have to say is after not losing any weight last week, this week officially sucked.

Start Date:  Jan. 5, 2012
Starting Weight: 198

Today's Date: Feb. 16, 2012
Current Weight: 189.8

Week 6: Gained .2
Total Loss: 8.2 (WAS 8.4)
 
I have no idea why I've had 2 bad weeks in a row and I have no words of encouragement. And to be honest...I don't have much hope for next weeks weigh-in because this weekend is my birthday and I have 3 dinners to go to (2 out to eat and 1 a home cooked meal).  It is what it is, I guess. Tonight I just want to sulk, and I'm going to let myself. Tomorrow though, is Day 1 of week 7 and I plan on hitting it HARD at the gym. 
 
Note: My Daily Point Limit is now 31 points down from 32 because I've lost 8.4 pounds. You also get an additional 49 points a week to use however you want (a little everyday, all at once, or not at all). You also earn points for the activity that you do. 

 Day 1: Used 31 points. (0 points remaining) 

Day 2: Used 34 points. (Used 3 of my 49 extra)
 
Day 3: Used 34 points. (Used 3 of my 49 extra)
 
Day 4: Used 23 points points. (8 points remaining)
1st day at the gym!
 2 points for 20 minutes on the bike
 1 point for 10 minutes of weight lifting
3 points for 35 minutes on the elliptical. 
Total: Earned 6 points 
 
Day 5: Use 44 points. (Used 13 of my 49 extra)
 
Day 6: Used 40 points. (Used 9 of my 49 extra)
2nd day at the gym!
2 points for 30 minutes of weight lifting 
3 points for 30 minutes on the bike
3 points for 30 minutes on the elliptical
Total: Earned 8 points
 
 Day 7: Used 38 points. (Used 7 of my 49 extra)

49 Extra Weekly Points Used: 35 (They say you can still lose weight when using your 49 extra points. I know everyone is different but I'm seeing that the more of the 49 I use, the less weight I lose.)
Activity Points Earned: 14 (Didn't use these for food)
  
 Week 7 Goal:
Try to drink more water a day. Go to the gym at least twice. My husbands goal for me...STOP SKIPPING BREAKFAST

You're doing great! Like your mom said, hard work DOES pay off. Keep it up! I bet next week will be better. <3

You're doing so good! A miniscule step back does not negate all the steps forward that you've taken.

Also, Trish's goal for you this week: Don't skip breakfast! Even if it's a piece of toast or an apple. Don't make me come over there... :)
