Hot Dang it!! I finally got something to write about…. I took my kiddos trick or treating last night and you would not believe the candy we ended up w/ BUT I didn’t put a single pc. in my mouth! Mission Accomplished=) I DID IT!! It was hard as heck too but I had a goal and I did it. I’m so happy about it this morning! We walked about 4.5 extra miles last night too (wore pedometer).. I see it this way — If I could resist the temp. last night … what can hold me back any other day?? Happy November Ya’ll.
Week 3 of 3rd 6 weeks, success BUT went mildly out of control–:) Went out to dinner with a friend–ordered a bottle of wine b/c it was half price (cheaper than two glasses)–since I was walking–no problem with having a little more than I would–when I got home those little dove bar ice creams were there just waiting for me–one wasn’t enough–3 minibars. They were good. Did I mention they were good? What’s more–I realized the chicken I ordered–although delicious–was floured before cooking. That was good too. Today I have a going away luncheon for my boss where we are paying 50 bucks a person–I probably won’t eat much–bummer. And, I have a 4 hour reception that we are being honored at so I need to stay the whole time. Set up for a not terrific day–we’ll see. 138.2, 35.8% body fat, musc mass 84.2, neg ketones (no kidding), no exersize. Breakfast atkins bar, coffee w half and half, lunch salad w chicken and blue cheese dressing, dinner chicken, brocolli, bite bread/butter, lots of cabernet, 3 small dove bars. No halloween candy though
