What does the sign say that you wear on your forehead? What do you think people say about you when they see you? First impression kind of stuff......
I think people used to look at me and think "fat girl" and they tacked this imaginary sign on my forehead with those words on it. So, I was "fat girl". Not a very sexy super hero name, is it?
I do the same thing. I look at people while I'm out and about and make judgments about them. I even sometimes imagine what their job is based on what sign I tack on their forehead. I don't think it's necessarily something 'mean' or anything, but it's just a quick call about what the sign on their forehead says. Today I was at Costco and in looking around the store I saw so many signs on people's foreheads. For example, there was the lady with the eternally surprised look on her face - she became "face-lift lady". There was the Asian lady, dressed very stylishly, and pushing a cart with a young child in it - she became "put-together-Mom". There was the guy giving out sample of hummus - the way he was carrying on about being stuck giving samples of the 'healthy food' instead of the cookies & ice cream made him become - 'crazy sample guy'. I can't say that I really remember any of the other sample giver outers - mostly because I DID NOT EAT ANY SAMPLES!!!! So - I didn't have to do squats at Costco! WOOT! :) I DID however have to do 4 sets of 10 today. So, 4 LB&T's. Not too bad. And I tracked all of them too, so I paid the toll for my indiscretion TWICE!
Anyhoo - back to the sign you were on your forehead.... After I went to Costco I decided to pop into Plato's Closet to see if I could find a smaller pair of jeans. I hesitate to buy too many clothes while I'm losing weight, but a new pair when I'm getting too small for my current jeans is a good incentive. I found a VERY sweet pair that were size 9/10!!! YEAH!!!! I was looking in the mirror, admiring myself, when I noticed the sign on my forehead said "confident". That was all. I had 'the look' that attracts other people. It was exciting to live it and to see it!
So - what does your sign say? If it's something that you don't like, how can you change it? If it's something that you like - congratulations!!!!
Breakfast:
Jenn's Coffee w/ 1 extra t. sugar (I used our coffee maker for the first time and I made the coffee WAY TOO STRONG!!!!!) (2 PP)
Jenn's Oatmeal w/ bananas & only 2 T. of 1% milk (3 PP)
Lunch:
5 oz. chunk white tuna in water, drained with 2 t. light mayo & 2 T. chopped jalapenos & about 1 c. carrots mixed in (6 PP)
2 T. Roasted pine nut hummus (2 PP)
Snacks: (I might have gone a bit crazy again today!)
celery with 1 oz. 1/3 less-fat cream cheese & 1 T. jalapeno jelly (3 PP)
12 sprouted almonds (2 PP)
1 oz. dark chocolate almonds (4 PP)
1.25 chocolate covered cherries (4 PP)
1/3 oz. bagel chips (two of my LBT's) (1 PP)
3 small clementines (0 PP)
1 oz. Castleton Crackers - Putney Pumpkin (2 PP)
My other two LBT's were a sip of Scott's Arnold Palmer 1/2 tea / 1/2 lemonade. Really didn't amount to any points, but it was mindless snacking nonetheless. The other was a chocolate covered cherry. TOTALLY worth it! :)
Total PointsPlus for the day: 33
The night is still young and I feel like snacking on something else. For some reason I'm craving oatmeal! So, I'll make a serving and put some raspberries or blueberries (or both!) if my hunger pains don't subside in a few. That will cost an extra 3 points. My last day in my WW cycle is tomorrow & I have an extra 15 points remaining (plus my 29 for tomorrow), so I won't panic if I do end up eating more. I'm inviting my parents over tomorrow for dinner and I'm planning on serving sirloin steaks, brown rice (a HUGE staple in my house!!!), steamed artichokes & salad. I might whip up some sort of WW dessert - we'll see! :)
