Days four and five

Sunday was a day of running around and lazing around, all at the same time. Jay and I usually spend Sundays getting ready for the radio show, so that's what I started to do when I woke up at 10:30. Jay and Diana were still asleep, after being at the drive-in til 3:00, so I had a silent house to "myself" and read the three comic books for the show. I had a bowl of measured raisin bran for breakfast. So yummy. When the troops finally awoke, we had to run to Toys R Us to get a birthdy present for one of Diana's classmates and the grocery store. I was a bit hungry, so before we went out, I grabbed a burger for a quick lunch. 4 points including the bun. Love the Wegmans light buns! :) And, this meant I wasn't starving when we went to the grocery store! Bonus win!

Pretty proud of myself at the grocery store....bought a lot of veggies. I found a recipe for "inside out egg rolls" which is pretty much sauteed cabbage with other add-ins. I think I'll make it today while Diana's at school.

Then Sunday night was the show, and then the finale of LOST. I had some leftover pasta salad from Diana's birthday, but I wasn't uber-hungry. I think I actually had some points left at the end of the day. I really have to work on that!!

Monday, I had a day shift at work and packed my lunch! Yay me!! I brought a yogurt, fresh strawberries, 2 burgers (only ended up eating one though) and a 3-point bag of pretzels. Dave got a bunch of stuff from the vending machine for his "snack" and offered me a peanut butter cup. After figuring out the points, and seeing that the whole package was 6 points....I enjoyed a 2-point peanut butter cup. So delicious. Yes, I would have loved to scarf down the other 2 and would have done it in a heartbeat just a week before. But, that one was SOOO satisfying. Seriously. I journaled it, counted my points for it and enjoyed it to no end!

We made deep-dish pizzas to eat while watching the finale of 24. Old recipe from when I was on WW before, but I re-calculated the points to make sure I was on the up-and-up. It really is so filling. I wrote down the points as I was figuring them (mine was more points than Jay's because I added pineapple and olives) but I forgot how many points a slice was when I was plating them. I actually shorted myself 4 points for the day. I figured I'd have a snack while we were watching the rest of our shows, but I really wasn't hungry.

I think I'm going to have to get some fruit juice just to keep on hand so I can drink the final points of the day. If I get the 100% fruit juice, it'll count as a fruit serving....it's just going to be a matter of keeping the husband and 5-year old out of "mommy's juice" lol

Woke up this morning to get Diana off to school and realized it's Tuesday. Tomorrow's weigh-in! Not that I'm nervous, I just can't believe it's here already!! Kinda excited to see what kind of number I post! I haven't started excercising yet. Not that I'm making excuses, but I really want to get the journalling and food prep under my extremely large belt before I start adding something else to the routine.

Having a cold piece of deep dish pizza for breakfast. Mmmmmm, so good.
