Just one more day...


I'm with Tara. The kitchen is CLOSED! Wednesdays are hard... I just want Thursday to come so I can eat my sub... tonight I am resisting temptations by staying OUT of the kitchen. I was going to do some more Easter baking... but have decided against it. I will slowly drag myself out to get the dishes done.

Did I mention what's IN my kitchen right now? This...
I will stay strong. Weigh in is TOMORROW!

I had trouble falling asleep last night, but still managed a jog this morning and a semi-fast-paced walk at lunch (mall walking!)... I was going to do yoga this evening but I'm tired. I'm giving myself the evening off. My Prevention and Canadian Living magazines came today... I may even retire to bed and read there tonight!

After work Alex and I went to the Pickering Town Centre and got Simon this;

It's called the "Jump Start Trampoline" and you get it at Mastermind in the Pickering mall... I don't normally get him a "gift" for Easter (that's what the Easter Bunny and grandma and grandpa are for)... but when I saw how much he LOVES to bounce and jump and I told my sister about it (thinking about it for a birthday gift)... she knew Simon will absolutely LOVE it... then I just couldn't wait for his birthday to get it for him!! I'll try to spend less $$ on him for his birthday instead... but I just couldn't wait for the end of June to get it. I called Michele when we left the mall tonight to tell her I had gotten it... Simon was literally jumping on his old crib mattress while we spoke (He is now in a 'big boy' bed... but Michele lets him jump on his old crib mattress for fun). They should have named the boy "Tigger".

Okay, here's what I ate today...
Breakfast: shake (3)
Lunch: salad with tuna (1), cheese (2), veggies (0) and EVOO/balsamic dressing (2), yogurt (1), edamame leftover from last night (0)
Snack: larabar - apple pie (3) - discovered this one is in fact only 3 points!
Dinner: egg white/veggie/salsa omelette (2), chocolate PB2 (4) - HUGE craving for PB tonight
Total: 18
Water: 3L

So, I'm pretty sure I'm going to be up tomorrow... I tried to do damage control from the weekend but the scale is just not cooperating so far. I will try a last ditch effort on the treadmill and then a walk at lunch... otherwise, I am looking at my work being cut out for me over the weekend. Luckily, I feel confident I can do it!! I don't even WANT to eat bad stuff because this whole 'losing weight' thing (that I've managed to do for 6 weeks in a row) is pretty cool... I'm not ready to stop it yet! Also, Alex and I have a bet going... he is joining me for sub night tomorrow. If I lose weight - subs are on him. If I stay the same or gain weight - subs are on me. I don't want to pay for dinner!

Good luck to all who weigh in tomorrow!!

As disappointing as it is, sometimes after 6 STRAIGHT weeks of losses, your body just needs to think about what to do next! I don't think you totally blew it on the weekend...you have flex points and you excercise. Don't be so hard on yourself. YOU ARE DOING AWESOME!!! IF there is a stay the same or a gain, it's only a blip on the radar :)
Anyway, hopefully your bet turns out in your favour tomorrow. You just never know!
PS. the trampoline looks cool! I'm sure Tigger will love it :)

K, I just did some quick math as I was looking back on your weekend. If you count it out for say 22 daily points x 3 days (fri, sat, sun)= 66. Now add 35 flex = 101.
From my calculations you ate 88...AND you excercised. That is in NO way blowing it, silly girl :)
