Okay, I must admit that for the last 4 days I’ve wanted to eat everything in sight that wasn’t nailed down. That’s not exactly true, I don’t overeat a ton, but I do frequently make point-unfriendly food choices and this week I’ve just wanted to eat things that were not point appropriate. I’m so glad I’m taking the weekends off. Today, was no exception and unfortunately I gave in and had a double McDonald’s experience – which didn’t help my plan or my mood in general; ah the fleeting joys of eating crap cuisine. Tomorrow morning I weigh in and I will know my starting point for losing 101 pounds, plus I’m going to have the hubby take the official “before photos” – urgh, not looking forward to that. So many parts of my body look like ham hocks that you’ll want to throw me in a pot and make some split pea soup…but I digress.
So today, even though I ate all take-out food/fast-food I stuck with it all day. I’m proud of me because I wanted to go off so bad. I don’t exactly know why? Perhaps it’s so much structure that I want to buck it at times. I dunno, I have 361 days to figure it out. On the health side, I called the physician and they still haven’t received any of the results from the stress test so I’m still waiting…patience is not one of my virtues either. Basically I want to know so that I can get my act together with exercising. Oh well, tick tock.
Even with some of my problems today I stuck with it and managed to come out a winner in the end. Plus, I even put my Project Runway on hold to finish Lesson 4 of my German on Rosetta Stone. I’m proud of myself how much I’ve remembered, however it is getting harder. I need to keep it up and keep going – I do think I’m driving Jim crazy naming all the things in the room that I know the German word for.
Now, to watch my Project Runway…
Oh, and I put out a call to my friends on Facebook to see if anyone is courageous enough to eat my first culinary adventure in Rick Bayless’ Mexico…I’ll let you know who takes the bait (going to make it on Sunday). In the meantime, here’s what I ate today:
