 Hi friends welcome back to my channel and happy Friday. I am here at my WW workshop It is just about 640 running a little bit late today. I needed a little extra sleep. It has been a week It's been a rough week. It's been a rough week overall As you know, I am just now getting started like officially started into my real estate career It's been a very busy week. I've been in and out of the office. I've been running all around my schedules all out of whack It's been a week. I wasn't able to get my walking in at all this week My food depended on the day. It just it it was definitely a week So I'm running a little bit late today. No problem. My workshop doesn't start until 7 But I don't know how it's gonna end up. I you guys I I am struggling. I'm struggling to feel like there's enough time in the day for everything And I know that as I get more settled into this real estate routine that will help a little bit everything will kind of settle out It'll just be a little bit more like normal. So let me tell you a little bit about my week as far as eating goes So there were days that I had great eating days. There were days that I didn't so it really just truly depended on the day There were days to be honest with you guys that I didn't track a single thing because I just didn't have time I was just eating whenever I had the opportunity. I'm finding that I'm sitting a lot I'm preparing things on the computer a lot. I'm in classes a lot So I definitely need to get back into the activity. It's just it was a week to be honest with you So we'll see what happens when I hop on the scale. I'm not anticipating a loss I'm hoping that if I have a gain it isn't a huge gain But we shall see so I'm gonna run into my workshop. I'll be back to share with you guys the workshop recap as well as my weigh-in and My game plan for the upcoming week because I'm gonna be doing something to basically get myself back into the groove of things and get back On track a hundred percent. So stay tuned and I will be right back I am officially out of my workshop It was a great workshop the topic of course was exactly what I needed for the week and yeah It was a fantastic workshop so the topic that we talked about today was finding your happiness and as I mentioned before I went in my Life has done a complete 360 I am so busy. I have a lot going on. I'm trying to learn. I'm taking classes. I'm starting over entirely in my career So I'm not finding a lot of happiness in things that I'm doing for myself There's not a lot of self-care and self-love right now because I'm too busy being pulled in several different directions with a new career So this topic again was absolutely perfect for me absolutely perfect I think it's important that we remember that not only are we on this journey to lose weight and To change the foods that we're eating We're also on this journey to shift our mindset and to have a lifestyle That's fulfilling and happy and something that we can sustain and live with and I think I know for myself I forget about that third pillar of this weight loss all the time And I really spend my time focusing on the weight loss and the food and I forget about the mindset and doing things for Myself that make me happy and things that help me along my journey and things in my life that are sustainable And I really need to refocus and get back to the mindset leg of this journey So I want to talk with you guys about what WW suggest that you can do to find your happiness And also help you along in your weight loss journey The first thing that WW suggests is make a happy hour a happy hour for yourself Set some time aside whether it's a half an hour an hour 15 minutes set some time aside to do something for yourself that makes you happy Go get a pedicure sit outside and read a book cuddle with your kids or your dog. Just do something One time this week that makes you happy give yourself a happy hour that isn't around drinks and isn't around food But it's more around your happiness and your well-being It says in studies that 40% of our happiness comes from things that we do not from genetics Not from outside environments, but things that we do that contributes to 40% of our happiness That's crazy that 40% of us being happy is about the things that we do So take that time this week to give yourself that happy hour. So for me, I'm gonna get my toes done I'm gonna go get a pedicure. I'm gonna take that hour. I'm not gonna bring my phone. I'm not gonna be on social media I'm literally just going to sit there and I'm going to bask in the happiness of getting my toes done And that is my happy hour this week. That is what I'm going to do to make myself happy this upcoming week I'm making time for that. I'm making time I'm gonna feel better my toes are gonna be pretty and I'm gonna give myself the opportunity to have a happy hour So you might be wondering how do I decide what I'm gonna do for my happy hour? So I have three suggestions for you first of all think about an activity that you like to do on your own by Yourself so for me, I like to go get a pedicure by myself It gives me a chance just to relax not think about anything Just get away from life in general not to talk to anybody just close my eyes and relax So think about an activity that you like to do alone now if you'd rather do an activity with someone else That's my second suggestion. Think about an activity that you can do with someone else Maybe it's going on a hike a walk Maybe it's going out to a healthy meal with a friend just to have that conversation and to have some good food and relax And spend some time with your friends Maybe that's what you need to do to help with your happiness Or maybe you need to do something which is my third suggestion that gives back Maybe you want to volunteer somewhere you want to hand out food at the food bank You want to serve meals to the homeless? Maybe you want to do something that brings you happiness by giving back to others So take a moment and think about the three suggestions Alone with a friend or something that you can give back and volunteer and decide what you're going to do for the upcoming week That's going to help contribute to your happiness and set some time. Don't let it go guys Don't say well. I'm too busy or that didn't work out or I didn't have time Make the time this week to give yourself a happy hour. I know for me I 100 and million trillion percent need a happy hour of this week just with running crazy in life I need to have some time to myself. So I am committing that I'm gonna go have a pedicure this week Hell for lack of a better word or high water I'm gonna be getting my toes done this week and I'm gonna give myself a relaxing happy hour So now let's talk a little bit about my week and my way and let's go a little bit About actually first, let's start with my way Let's start there Let's start with what happened when I got on the scale and then I'm gonna share with you guys my plan for the upcoming week So as I mentioned, it was a rough week. It was busy. It was intense. It was crazy There were days. I was good. There were days I don't know if I was good because I didn't track. So when I stepped on the scale I actually gained point eight now in my opinion It could have been worse. So I was happy with the point eight game Of course, I'm not happy gaining at all and looking back over the last few weeks of weighing in I'm not really making a whole lot of progress and I don't blame that on the freestyle program I don't blame that on anybody other than myself. It's my own Doing that. I'm not making the progress that I want to do so this week I am taking a moment and I am raising my hand and I am taking a big huge hit on The reset button. I have to I have to get back to what I was doing months ago I have to get back to basics back to the beginning and I need to start making time for weight watchers I need to make time to plan my meals to track my food. I need to make time to exercise I have to do that for myself So this is my official notice that I am hitting the reset button and what is hitting the reset button mean For me hitting the reset button means going back to the Wendy plan So I am going to be doing the Wendy plan again this week I think that that is the fastest easiest way for me to hit the reset button. I have to track my food every day I have to stay within my points. I can't go above. I can't go below I have to try to stay within my point so that the Wendy plan actually works If you don't know what the Wendy plan is I'm going to put the link for the calculator down in the description box below You go and you enter your daily allowed points and your weekly points You pick the day that you want to have is your high point day So the day that you want to essentially eat your weeklies so to speak and the Wendy calculator will jumble all of those numbers up and Spit out point values for you for the entire week and those are the point values that you stick with so you're gonna have some high point days You're gonna have some low point days and the reason behind the philosophy of the Wendy plan is to boost your metabolism and Re-jump start your weight loss. So it's great for people that are on a plateau It's great for people like me that are just on the struggle bus that just need to hit the reset button Generally, you will see a good weight loss when you do the Wendy plan because it's resetting your body It's fueling your body in a different way than you field your body over the last week or months or years or however long You've been eating the same number of points every day So I'm gonna give the Wendy plan another shot this week My high point day is going to be tomorrow Saturday as my husband and I will be going out for breakfast tomorrow Before I go to do my open house. So we are gonna use tomorrow as my high point day So I'm gonna jumble it all up. I will go ahead and insert a picture right here of Kind of what the Wendy plan looks like what my week is going to look like and you'll see that I have high point days low point days and that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna stick with the Wendy plan because it makes me stick to my points. It makes me track my points It doesn't allow me to go over my points and indulge because if I do it kind of screws up the rest of the week on The Wendy plan so that is my plan to help me hit the reset button this week And I know it works because the last two times that I've done the Wendy plan I've lost 2.8 pounds in one week, and then I think it was two pounds the other week that I did the Wendy plan So I'm in a hundred percent I think it's really gonna help me re-jump start my weight loss and really get me back focused on weight watchers So I'm hoping for quite a loss when I hop on the scale next week I'll definitely let you guys know how my week went. I'll try to post periodically on my Facebook group So if you're not part of my Facebook group, I'm gonna put it right there for you Make sure that you join we have just under 7,500 members It's a wonderful positive place to be so I'll be putting periodic updates of how I'm doing on the Wendy plan on my Facebook page I'm really excited about it because I know that this is what I need to hit the reset button I know this is the hard Reset for me and this is going to help me get there and really get me refocused on what makes me happy And what makes me happy you guys besides outside things like my husband and my dogs and my career What makes me happy is feeling good in my skin and losing weight when I step on the scale and making progress in my journey That's what makes me happy. So I'm moving back to happiness hitting the reset button And I am looking forward to the upcoming week. So I want to hear how was your guys this week? Was it what you expected? Did you gain?
