Weigh in Week Three

I wasn't expecting much results when I weighed in this morning because I ate an entire Ben and Jerry's one night when I had a few friends over for a movie. Then yesterday I lost a battle with chocolate to help me cope with sick screaming and fighting kids. I ate my entire ziploc baggy of my chocolate reserves- two servings of kisses. And to top ot off, I only went to the gym twice this week because of Dr Appointments and Adam took the car to Fresno for the weekend for a CMEA conference. So unless we are going to walk in the rain to get there- I ain't goin!
This Ben and Jerry's is SOO good. Its like cookies and cream had a baby with Mint chip- mint ice cream with whole oreos- MMM! The entire thing is 28 points- almost 2/3 of my day's allowance.

So I step on the scales all depressed to find out that I lost 3.5 pounds this week. WHAT? REALLY?? Can I re-do my weight? That can't be right!!
I was all stressed this week and getting depressed that I wasn't doing this right all for nothing!

One factor to why this week worked is because I got a food scale and I am very adamant with weighing everything to see what the points would really be. For example- my cereal that I thought was only 3 pts. was actually 10- without milk. I got it about two weeks ago but now that I played with it for a week I know how to work it- and control myself- really well.
Thank you Tara for the recommendation of getting a scale!

So my total weight loss for my first three weeks is now 7.5 pounds! YAY!
