Nokturnel

For a while I was “unofficially” doing Weight Watchers again because I had some of the tools to calculate points and whatnot. It just wasn’t working though, I lost motivation quickly and stopped keeping track. I was able to save up the money to pay for the first 3 months and I’m hoping that I should be able to continue to pay for Weight Watchers after that. It’s something I wish I could say I’m a lifetime member of to be honest but right now in my life my financial situation isn’t really the best. It’s hard for me to know what I can and cannot afford each month.

So what I’m saying is I’ve started Weight Watchers again! Yes! The first time I signed up for it I dropped 20 pounds and felt amazing. I stopped doing it because I couldn’t afford it and school was starting. I gained ALL the weight back because, as much as I absolutely LOVED school, it was very stressful.

Yesterday I took the assessment to find out how many activity points I should aim for in a week and the goal is 14. I honestly thought it was going to be higher than that! I’ve already hit 21 activity points for the week and I’m about to earn 11 more with the cardio routine that I use.

The reason I’ll hit my activity points so quickly is because I count activity points for when I give massages. I burn a lot of calories during a massages and I’m even calculating it as though I’m doing a fairly easy massage without doing as much as I typically do. During one massage I’ll earn 6 activity points!
Of course I don’t count Reiki sessions for obvious reasons, I’m not doing much physical work other than walking around the massage table.

Anyway! I’m off to exercise!

I’ve browsed through the WW tag and I just want to say CONGRATS! It seems like so many people have been making great progress and hitting some of their goals so I just want to make sure they know that what they’re doing is AMAZING! Keep it up!

“teenagers skip breakfast because they think it will help them lose weight” ACTUALLY NO THATS BULLSHIT TEENAGERS SKIP BREAKFAST SO THEY CAN MAKE IT TO SCHOOL ON TIME WITHOUT WAKING UP AT 4 IN THE MORNING

I skipped breakfast in high school too but to be honest it’s because it upset my stomach so badly that I felt sick for about half the day. I never understood this at all but I’ve come to find that a lot of other people had experienced the same thing in high school.

I had often wondered if it was just an anxiety thing. I went undiagnosed for a little while in high school.
