I'm gonna have one bigger gift that I'm giving away for my 5000 subscribers.
I will give that away on the 8th. I have not decided what it is yet. I'll let you
know when I know. I'm really excited about it because I've just been
thinking about it since I hit 4000. Because, gosh, I never even realized I
would even hit 4000. So I thought I had a lot longer to think about it and happens
so happens that I don't have a lot longer to think about it. Cuz it's here now.
So I'm going to do that giveaway with
Sandy every day. What I'm gonna try to do is a few of my favorite things. Giveaway
something small every day the 1st through the 7th as well as Sandy's gonna

Subscribe to her. She's got something new every day
the 1st through the 7th as well. So this is gonna be fun. It's gonna be a collab
between the two of us. I thought it was a wonderful idea. She really thought of
a really great idea. So again, celebrating on 100 weeks on
Weight Watchers in the 100 weeks I have lost a 123.6 pounds.
I never expected even to reach 100
pounds in this short a time, let alone 123. I was at 120, almost hundred 27, but
I'll be there again. I am so happy with myself and so proud of myself for really
sticking to it. And when I get off track, for getting back on track quick enough
where I don't gain back, you know, 10-20 pounds or anything like that. So I'm very
very proud of that. But anyway, let's get started. Let's find out if the scale was
nice to us this week. But first, I have to show you what I found at our farmers
market. Check this out. You do know what this is. Delicata squash. We had one for
lunch and I forgot to film it, because I was so excited to eat it. These are
probably my most favorite food in the world. Over pizza even! So good this is!
So good and we all we do is we spray it with a little Pam. Cut it fairly thin,
maybe about that thin. And I have a "cook with me" on this. If you go in my
cook with me section, you'll find this in there. And then I sprinkle it with penzey
Rocky Mountain seasoning. Best seasoning for this that there is, in my
opinion. So good! we got They only had three of these at the farmers market. I
had... I got all three of them. He said he had like 25 of them, but they sold like
within an hour. So everybody's waiting for these squashes. If you guys find
these, they're coming out. So keep an eye out for these because they will be here
all fall. And I'm so excited! So excited! I do so well in the fall because I live on
these. I can have. I just had this for lunch. That's what, that's all I had and
this is zero smart points. But I have to count it for one because I added the
seasoning on there. So that's a one smart point. It probably wouldn't even be a
smart point. But I'm going to count it for one, just to be on the safe side with
this. This is delicious and then my husband took the time to take the seeds
out and take all the goo out in between the seeds and cook them up. Check that
out!
These seeds are way better than pumpkin seeds, guys! They are so delicious and
those are also zero smart points. Especially if you could just put garlic
salt on them and pepper. So let's get to weigh-in. All right guys.
We have the weekly here. It's all about gratitude. And I am thinking that Weight
Watchers needs to look into this little pamphlet as well. I think you all may
agree with this gratitude. Appreciation for your members, appreciation for your
colleagues, appreciation for your family. Everything is in this little booklet.
Check it out, and check out Sandy's new channel. With let's get fit with Sandy,
she started her own channel now. A new one separate from the one her sister had
started. And check her out. I will list her channel down below, and I will put
the name of it right here as well. But her link will be down below, so check her
channel out. She doesfabulous reviews. That's why I don't do a review.
Because hers are so good. She just does a fabulous job. Way better than I
could do. So that's why I send you guys over there. Then let's get right to
weigh-in because I know you guys are wondering how we did.
We'll start with Cory's first, as usual. I tried talking him into doing the video
with me, but he was having none of that. He's doing his closed caption on his
video. So that's pretty cool too. You can do manual closed caption on your videos.
Which I've been trying to do because my son is deaf. You guys probably know that
about me. I have a deaf son and he lives in Texas. And the grandchildren that
I have here are his children. So he likes to watch my videos and it's kind of hard
for him. The captions kind of get messed up so I try to do manual and get them
all in there. Especially the ones with the kids, so he can watch them. So anyway
last week guys he lost zero pounds. He stayed exactly the same, which is
pretty darn good. This week,
it's kind of hard to read the writing, but he lost 2.4 this week. That brings
his total pounds lost to 146.4. Holy cow he is now at 209 pounds even. He is
catching up to me. I've got to get going because, yeah, he's catching up to me.
I say I don't care to him, but I kind of do so I have to get moving.
I started a new book. Obviously they did not take our booklets away yet because
they are still handing them out at our meeting.
So hopefully this little trial that they're doing at some people's meetings
will be a fail. Let's all get a hold of them and tell them we want to keep our
booklets. So my last week weigh in, I got to go to my old book to tell you that, and I
think I lost. Yeah I did.
So last week I lost 1.6 and this week
I lost 0.2, which I'm not gonna sneeze at because, guys, if I have a loss
I'm going to celebrate it. So I'm celebrating this loss and I'm going to
work hard next week to get another loss and get down below that 200 pound mark
again. It's like I bounce up, I bounce down, I bounce up, I bounce down.
I need to stay down below the 200 mark, and keep it there. Oh it's been so difficult!
It's been so difficult. But these little beauties are going to help me. I promise,
they are. I live on these things all fall and winter if I can get my hands on them.
I'm constantly buying these things out because I make them They last a long
time just sitting on your countertop because they are a fall squash, so they
last a really long time. weeks I mean we've had them on our counter for
weeks and they were fine. You just split them open. What I do is I split them open
this way. And I scrape out all the insides and then I lay it flat. Like lay
this flat. But it's cut right here, right? And then I slice it up into little
french fry looking things. So they'll be kind of horseshoe or half-moon shaped is
what they'll look like. But they'll be like thin as a french fry. That's what I
do with these things. Then I bake them for about 30 to 35 minutes at 450
degrees. And it's always perfection. It's just a little light brown topping. I wish
I would have recorded it because it looks so wonderful. It looks so delicious.
Really good. Really good squash. Similar tasting to sweet potatoes, but it's just ahhh,
it's just good. It's just, if you guys like sweet potatoes, you will love these.
These are the best squash ever. I got to stop talking about it now because I
could go on and I could talk about squash for an hour. Because that's how
much I like it. So that is our weigh-in results. I'm doing a what I ate today.
I will get that up tomorrow. I did not do it what I ate for Saturday, but I'm gonna
run through that with you really quick. I did go over by 10 points. I had my bag of
pea-chips that I always have. The... this is what it looks like. It's the
mango chili lime. They now have the new orange bag. It used to be, I think, a green
bag. But they've changed the color. Still tastes the same, thank goodness! Actually
maybe not thank goodness, because then if they change the flavor I probably won't
like them anymore. I 'd complain a lot, but it'd do me well.
I really would. But this is the best harvest snaps ever. I eat the whole bag.
It is either 9 or 10 smart points. depending on the weight, sometimes.
It says it's 3 ounces. Sometimes it's only like 2.5 ounces in here. So I always
weigh them out, because sometimes I can get away with
squeaking amount for 9 points instead of 10. But usually a whole bag is 10 smart
points. I count them. I move on and I have them every Saturday. One of my favorite
joys of Saturdays. So I had that and then I had I had a protein bar. That's only 2
points, so that's not so bad. We had bacon egg and cheese sandwich for
breakfast. What did we have for supper? Oh, we had a club for supper yesterday. I'm
gonna post that clip because I did tape that. That's the only thing I taped
yesterday because it was so delicious looking. I'm gonna post that clip next
here because it looks so good guys. I made the bacon and Cory put together the
sandwich, cuz he used to be a cook. He put those things together like a charm.
I will put that clip next, here, so you can see it. Very delicious, guys. And that
was so delicious! Oh my gosh, it was so good! I loved it! It was so delicious and
I was thinking about actually having it today again but we have other plans for
today, including eating this for supper. I forgot what we were making today for
supper. I don't know. I have a meal plan all made out though. I actually did a meal
plan because I plan on sticking to my tracker exactly 100% and like I said
yesterday I was 10 over. I'm gonna try to earn those points back this week
throughout the week and hopefully I can have a good loss come Saturday. Cory and
I were talking upstairs and I was... you know, he was kind of teasing me, not
seriously, but he was he was teasing me about how, he's... how I better get going cuz
he's gonna catch me and that. So, I said, "yeah I'm not too worried
about it anymore." But I do care, cuz I want... I don't want him to get below
me. So I was saying, you know, it's kind of funny because I'm not really worried
about getting there super fast, because I like my snacks guys. I have to have my
snacks or I wouldn't make it through this journey, at all. I know I wouldn't. He
is okay not having things like that. So he sticks to his plan 100%... 110% And then
on the days that he doesn't stick to it, he doesn't go way over. He doesn't even
eat all of his weeklies. He's like, if he'll splurge a day, he'll splurge by
going over like 20 points. Something like that. Cuz usually he's 5 to 10 points
under his target. Which is why he's losing so great. I mean he is 2 pounds
sometimes a week, 1 point something, sometimes even 3 pounds a week. So he's
losing at a steady pace every single week. Last week was the exception because
he did go over his points last week. But he still stayed the same but he planned
it that way. So that's the difference between him and I. I'm not ready to give
up my snacking, yet. I love my pea-chips. I love my protein bars. I love my Starbucks.
I have to have that in my journey, in order to make it to the end. So if I have
to go a little bit slower than he is, I'm okay with that. But it took me a long
time to learn that. To be okay with that because I would fight myself all the
time even though I was still eating these snacks, I would say "I'm not sure
why this is happening." But I knew in the back of my mind. I knew because I see
what he does. And he does so well, and he loses every week. I know if I do that I
could do it too, you know? There's no doubt in my mind that I would have a
loss every single week, if I stuck to my points. 5-under every single week, and I
think I'm gonna try that someday soon, guys. I would like to do an experiment
for two weeks soon. And I'm not sure when I'm gonna be ready for it. it means not
having these on Saturday for two weeks. I don't know. I'm... I... What I'm scared of, is
that it's gonna throw me way off track and I'm gonna just
eat everything in sight. That's what I'm scared of. If I don't allow myself these
snacks, that's what I do most of the time. But I think, if I get it in my mind that
it's an experiment for you guys, and I have to stick to it. Like the egg fast.
I was doing it for you guys. I knew I had to stick to it. And, guys, I lost so much
weight! I think I lost... like when I did this sample egg fast for like a day
and a half... I think I lost eight pounds that, just from a day and a half. And then
the when I actually did the egg fast I think I lost ten pounds. So it was crazy
and I only gained a little bit of that back. I didn't gain the whole entire
thing back. Because you will gain weight back from the egg fast because it's a
keto thing. Once you go off of it, you're going to gain a lot of it back I gained
probably half of it back. But over, you know, that ten pounds I think I lost a
total of five pounds. and on during the weigh-in
when I had my weigh-in results I actually had to put extra clothes on
because I did not want that whole ten pounds to show up on the scale. So I wore
my jacket. I wore a sweatshirt. I wore my shoes, you know. So I gained that five
pounds in order to compensate for the next week. Which it turned out it worked
out perfectly so it was it was a great week for me I I
couldn't have asked for about a week but I stuck to it 100% I did not go off
that egg fast one time I did not cheat on the egg fast one time so if you stick
to it it does work really well and it does shake up your system and you just
three days is all I would recommend going on it because it like I said it's
it's just eggs cheese and butter that's all it is and some people get sick of it
I never got sick of it I love eggs so much I never got sick of it and I love
cheese cuz we're from Wisconsin of course I love cheese there's so many
different cheeses here that the cheese is so delicious but I bet you we have
ten different cheeses up in my fridge right now and I could have a different
cheese and every meal during the egg fast and I was not bored that I used
less butter than they recommend in the egg fast because I wanted to stick to my
23 points I was able to do that with the egg fast I stuck to my 23 points exactly
maybe going under or over one to four but
Regine out it turned out perfectly so I was totally happy with it but I don't
want to do that too often because I don't want to get my body all crazy and
weird if I'm really struggling and on a plateau like a true plateau and a true
plateau to me is where you're doing everything perfect drinking all your
water walking and exercising and your scale is now budging that to me is a
plateau some people say oh I'm on a plateau where in reality they're licking
off the peanut butter spoon after you give it to your grandkids yes I say that
because I've done it every time you make dinner you're taking spoonfuls to taste
it because you want to make sure it's right okay this is another example that
I've done before cottage cheese into a bowl and you have
this little bit left in the spoon you put it in your bowl even though you were
right on all those little bitty things add up so be careful with those little
extras licks tastes and bites they take they say they it was what they are and
those things add up to quite a few points sometimes we're not really at a
plateau we just have to start weighing and measuring again and not eyeballing
some things like pouring cereal into a bowl where in reality you're having a
cup and a half versus a cup that's not a true plateau that's just a plateau from
your mistakes pretty much which is what I was on which is why I didn't want to
do the egg fast to kind of get myself over that I needed to work on what I was
doing in the kitchen versus trying to change things up again
I knew that it was my own fault that was not losing correctly I needed to
readjust my thinking getting things on that scale again not going over like
when I pouring my creamer and it's supposed to be 45 grams it jumps up to
50 and I'm like oh who cares well that's another point that I didn't pound I'm
back to perfect measuring hollow that stuff and I have to remind myself of
that a lot I tend to get over and then it's
okay I need to get back to this and I do that often and that's normal in a
journey that you just kind of keep getting back to it if you get back to it
you're okay but if you keep going on and on and on
and letting it get out of control over weeks and months then you're gonna be in
trouble and start gaining your weight back so stay on track when you goof up
keep back on track and just restart and reset so that is all for today guys
I hope this was helpful for you guys and I'm so happy that I lost something my
goal is to have all four weeks both pages full of losses I hope I can do it
I'm trying to do so much better and I still find myself licking that spoon of
that darn peanut butter and but I counted it this time I counted it like
yesterday on Saturday I did that with a knife I spread it on there and then
whatever was left I just licked off the night and I'm like I gotta stop doing
that but I counted I counted a point for it because it wasn't a whole lot that's
how I have to say I'm going overboard here and I want to get this video out
there and it's getting long so I will talk to you guys tomorrow thank you so

sure to share it if you think it may help anybody thanks for watching don't
