Back on the Wagon

Well, I'm back on Weight Watchers. This is week two. I was on a roll of working out and eating well and feeling good about a year ago... and then one of my best friends moved across the country. My healthy habits took a nose dive (she was my gym buddy!), and I neither watched what I ate or exercised for about a year.  Fifteen pounds later, I finally decided to do something about it. So it's back to the gym & back to mindful eating for me!

Wes makes a delicious butternut squash soup -- something I would've never thought I'd like -- and I was delighted tonight to find out that it's only 3 points for a whole cup! Yum! [He does only use 1 Tbsp EVOO instead of two -- that makes a difference.] Couple with 1/2 an apple and a slice of italian bread with butter & it's a fantastic 6-point meal. Here's the recipe if you're curious:

For the record, I went to Zumba tonight, too. It was hard! I'm happy to be home on the couch with my hubs & pooch. Now to decide if I'm willing to spend an extra 3 points on dessert....
