weigh-in

regardless of how well i think i've done for the week - i'm still hesitant when getting on the scale on wednesdays... i don't know why - maybe i worry about what i had to eat the night before (eggwich), or how much i exercised (weights), or if i didn't drink enough water (always the case)... anyway, i really need to stop doing that because deep down, i knew i did pretty well... i stayed within my points, exercised, and hardly used any flex points so as a result - the scale showed a 1.7 pound loss this week... i was pretty damn happy so i did the naked, happy dance while max just stared at me and said, "for the love of god, put some clothes on!"... cats, they just don't understand... ;o)

running was good last night - we jogged around the baseball fields, then around the park trail that we did a few weeks ago, and stopped at 18 minutes to take a water break... then we reversed the run and ended back where we started - 37 minutes later... it felt pretty good and today's run (35 mins) was great too - maybe i should keep this whole running thing up for a while, or at least til i'm REALLY sick of it... :-o

after running, i went to kohl's and exchanged most of my clothes for a smaller size - one shirt is even a size small and i'm wearing it today... i said SMALL... i've never been a small, since i was probably, small like 10 years old so i'm pretty psyched... i did go to a size 10 on the capris and they fit but i'm not sure if they'll fit just as good once i wash them (the 12's just seemed so big)... i'll have to wear them around the apartment for a while and make my decision later...

eric's coming over tonight and i'm making coconut curry chicken with brown rice - i'll have to enter everything into my eTools recipe builder and hope the points are too high... i did get reduced calorie coconut milk so that should help (i hope)... then we may go to the library so he can get a card - we've been talking about what books to bring to the beach... i would like to read the harry potter #5 before the next movie comes out so that's a possibility, and i also saw that dean koontz has a new one out as well - decisions decisions... :o)

here's an interesting post on less of me to love - she makes such a great point!

happy hump day...
