Another Loss

The meeting in Young was better than I expected, the leader was very good, an older lady, and talking about retirement which is a shame, she took a good meeting.  And I lost 1.5kg!  (about 3.3 pounds) which means I've lost 3.1kg in two weeks. (6.8 pounds).  I know from experience the early losses are the best ones, but WW do say that if the programme is followed properly losses of up to 1kg a week can be expected.  I'm on track to get to the 5kg off mark by the time we go away.
I ate breakfast but by the time the meeting finished at 1pm I was starving.  I grabbed a container of fresh fruit salad and had that before doing the grocery shopping but then by the time I had done that I was shaky with hunger so pressed for time (I had to pick Josh up from school) I went through the Maccas drive through and got the healthiest option (after looking it up in my Eating Out book) which was the Tandoori Chicken Wrap.  I have never eaten a wrap there before and I forgot to ask for seared chicken rather than the coated fried crap and it cost me 11 points and wasn't that good anyway.  Lesson learned, I should have organised my time better and called in at Subway before I left town.  I still managed to stay within points, we had Atlantic salmon for dinner and I just had salad with mine, but it was delicious.  I made the kids a healthier version of my fried rice, with brown rice and less oil and the kids said they couldn't tell the difference.  I had a taste and it tasted better with the brown rice, nuttier and more substantial.
I even had dessert, point free jelly and a tub of fruit salad.
I'll have some Sleepy Time tea soon and get an early night as Phill needs me to pick him up from Junee at daybreak tomorrow.  I'm really tired after my broken night last night.
I got a few little things for the baby.  When Harvey was born I put together a basket of things for him that I collected over the months but I've been a bit slack when it comes to little Mary (my name for her, since they won't tell anyone what name they have chosen).  It's so fun buying girl things after two boys.
This photo doesn't do it justice, it's a feather soft all in one suit.  And some little socks with lace on them.
This one has pink bows and detail on it and says "Little Ballerina" on it.  And two tiny pink singlets.
These are the things I already had, gorgeous Minnie Mouse suit, some bibs, socks and a pink Wondersuit.
This is what I got Harvey for Easter, Thomas the Tank Engine pjs.  I'll get him a small chocolate egg, his Mum doesn't like him having too many sweets. 
So I think I'll alternate between the two meetings.  Young is a shithouse shopping centre but it's closer to home, 47 km as opposed to 100km to Wagga. 
And this is the text I received from Phill when I told him what I'd lost.  "Doing great proud of you lov u bye".  Wonders will never cease. ;)

I really do like weight watchers. I once lost 50 pounds on the program. Unfortunately I have gained it back. I seem to have lost my will power.
Baby things are always adorable.
