Working Hard at This

Last WI: 216.8/At Home WI: 216.6

SUNDAY

Things are going well!!! Friday night I drove so Erik could drink. We went out to Y-Knots for poker and drinks. It was fun and we got home about 2:00 am. I had a philly cheesesteak for dinner, but I did get 2.5 miles in before going out. I definitely over-ate on Friday but I've been making it up since. Yesterday Erik went with me to the gym and I did 4 miles and felt great. My muscles were a little sore, but cardio-wise, I felt totally wonderful. We didn't get up till around 11:00 so we went right to the gym. We had dinner plans at about 5:00 so we just had some broccoli for a snack after the gym. We went to dinner at Applebee's and I had a WW meal, just substituting some mashed potatoes. The meal was supposed to be 10 pts, but I'm adding 2 for the "upgraded" potatoes. :-) I had some nuts and other snacks in the evening but came in under points for the day. Very good. We ended up staying out till 3:00 am again. :-)

So this morning, we slept late again and hit the gym together about noon. I did 60 minutes on the elliptical then came home to make a tuna sandwich for lunch. So - for today I've earned 9 APs and eaten 7 so far. Not bad. I plan to eat my target points today but no APs. Tomorrow will not be as good - Labor Day party planned! I know I'm going to go over points because I'm going to be drinking and celebrating FSU's kickoff game against Clemson. But I am going to hit the gym in the morning before the festivities kick off. I'll try to get in at least 5 APs to help counter-act the day's indulgences.

So the goal for the week is, ideally, to get my at home weight under 215 before Thursday, though frankly if I get it to 215.4 or lower, I should see my 1.5lb loss.

I CAN DO IT!
