In anticipation of rejoining the Weight Watcher at Work program at work this week, I've been eating anything and everything I craved for the past month. Even knowing that the first meeting was this past Monday (10/25), I allowed myself to slip on Monday since I'm still in bday celebration mode - still enjoying bday lunches & dinners, etc. But I can't do that for the rest of the week, not if I plan to actually lose weight. The nice thing about the WW program is that you don't need to strive to be perfect, just consistent - about tracking your food intake and exercising. I wonder how much an hour of rock climbing will earn in 'activity points'. Anyway, I need this so I can survive the holidays this year without gaining all the weight back (28 lbs!) that I lost on WW earlier this year.
Not only am I changing my eating habits, I am also changing Frankie's eating habits. After his GI bleeding episode earlier this month, I realized how important it is for not only me, but my dog to eat fresh, whole foods. He still needs to finish his 'low residue' canned food (prescribed by the Vet for his GI issues), but I'm slowly weaning him off that and transitioning him to a 'RAW' dog food called "Sojos Complete". It costs about the same as his old dry food, EVO Chicken and Turkey, so I will be spending about the same, I think. The food is re-hydrated with water. So far he likes the food. I think it smells a lot like 'Stove-Top Stuffing', but that does not matter, so long as he eats his food.
