Weigh in #1

I lost a pound....one stinking pound....
You're thinking...she should be ticked, right?

NO, actually I feel pretty stinking lucky. I did great last Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday day counting my points. I was counting the points for everything that entered my mouth, and feeling pretty good about things. Then came Bunco night. My friend had a spread that was to die for. Shrimp dip, queso dip, keylime bars, fudge trifle yumminess, sugar cookies...the list goes on and on. So I thought, what the hay?! I don't have to weigh in until Monday, right? I indulged. I indulged a lot.
Then Friday came. I did pretty well all day, but in the evening I went to dinner with my mother-in-law before we went to see "Lord of the Dance". It was a celebration of sorts, so I splurged & had some creamy and delicious clam chowder. Saturday was no better. We went out for mexican, complete with chips and salsa - my ultimate weekness. And the girls had a Valentines party at a friends complete with chocolate covered strawberries and all sorts of other delicious treats.

SO, I'm thrilled that I somehow managed to loose a pound. The scale was probably just off. But, I'm sure I won't be that lucky next week, so I really need to get back on the wagon this week!

Congratulations on that pound!! We must celebrate every one---don't give that scale any credit! I'm sure it was the hard work you put in before bunko!

A pound is a pound, maybe more next week.

I hosted bunco last month and did a hearty bean & pasta soup, salad and bread for dinner and fruit (well, it was chocolate dipped, but still fruit) for dessert.
