Weigh day!

Drum roll…today is weigh day and I'm down 1.4 lbs!  I’m happy with this, it looked like I was heading toward a gain earlier in the week.  I just got the batteries for my scale tonight – so this morning I weighed on my Great-grandma’s super old scale.  I am going to weigh on my scale tomorrow morning for consistency’s sake.

Today was a fun day! Here are some highlights:

·      We joined Costco and found some great deals on things that we use frequently and in big quantities. We got a nice size rotisserie chicken for $4.99, I took the meat off and froze 2 containers and refrigerated one – that’s a lot of chicken off of one bird!  I am thinking I’ll make tostadas for the family this weekend and maybe this buffalo chicken casserole they love too!  I saw this giant bottle of vino – too big even for me!

·      Found these running gloves at Costco today, very affordable.  They have the finger tip censor so that I can easily use my iPod.  Needed these gloves – got wind burn on my hands during yesterday's run.

·      I got gas for $2.23 today!  I used .60 cents on my Kroger Plus card!

·      I went to my kiddo's Christmas program, my middle boy.  He sang 3 songs and was so cute.

·      Today is a rest day, thank goodness, because it is 1 degree out!

·      Went to my department Christmas party. It was at a restaurant and so I was worried about staying on plan.  I ordered a chicken wrapper (only ate ½) and a bowl of chicken tortilla soup.  I am happy that I was able to stay on plan all week. Not that there weren't plenty of temptations.  For example, there were donuts and bagels in our break room this morning and I avoided that room - they were gone by the time I went in to refill my water bottle.

I am pretty exhausted tonight – I’ve run 10 miles in 7 days so I think that may be part of it; also it was just a very busy week at work and with the kids.

That's all for me tonight, going to watch a movie with the hubby!
