Good evening all. At least it's really dark outside where I live lol b/c it's already 9:20 and I'm ready for bed but wanted to check with you first.
It's still rainy and stormy outside but I could take two walks with DS.
One with my aunt and DS through our small town and one with my cousin and DS running in the woods.
I never knew how out of shape I was. My cousin's a real pro in sports and used to jogging and running and stuff like that. She made me run for nearly a mile and I was glad when my running shoe lace got open and I could take at least a small break
DS is fit again after his cold so I crawled over all the living room today to play with him and now my knee is hurting. Seems like I can retire some time soon Oh how I wish
No breakfast for me today. Lunch was some leftover lower Turkey leg with two buttered slices of dark sourdough bread.
Snack were some chocolates which I got for Valentine's day from hubby.
Dinner was two more slices of the bread with cream cheese.

Gotta go to bed now. See you tomorrow. Yawn
okay, so there is a 6 hour difference in time here. Nighty night Diana.
Jeannie! You sold your house? I bet I missed all those details in the last 2 weeks. I know it must have seemed like forever to you, but it went quick from my end!
NCN, did you get that little slide rule Dooly Gig for calculating points? I haven't played with it yet. I was reading my stuff in the bath tub last night. ( I do all my best reading in the tub)

I can't jog,my knee hurts now and sometimes it makes noises. Glad you can jog. right now I just walk fast,which I like to do these days.
Just had some chicken legs and some salad this evening
Missmousern, I call it my sliderule. It is easy to use. First you check to see if there is any fiber in whatever you want to evaluate, then you put the number of calories by the fiber line and check to the right for the place the fat content comes to. Long story short, more fiber fewer points, more fat more points. It is a behavior modification type diet that rewards you for eating more fiber and penalizes you for eating more fat. It doesn't take long for you to start looking for foods with more fiber and less fat. It has been my experience that if you stay within the points every day you will lose at least one pound per week. My dh and I lost an average of 2 pounds per week and our daughter lost an average of 3 pounds per week. Our daughter runs about five miles a week. My husband and I ate the maximum points everyday and our daughter ate the minimum points per day.
We had a few canisters with one, two, three, and four points goodies. My daughter came to visit and said, "Mom, I thought you all were on a diet." I said, "We are, but if I have a point left at the end of the day, I get a treat." Just stick to the points, it really works. Painless way to lose weight. We only added points for exercising one time the first day we started. My husband wanted us to share a steak and cheese so we went to the weight room and exercised an hour so I could join him. I didn't have enough points left before the exercise.
Just one note: The slide rule is not equipped to measure cheesecake.
I messed up lunch today by having a regular Harris Teeter cookie and a vegetable cracker snack.
Dinner: Mesquite chicken breast
Pear
1 T. olive garden dressing with a large salad of lettuce, cucumbers, and green, yellow, and red sweet pepper slices.
Coffee and 1% milk, a little less than 1/2 cup
Jeannie, I bet March 31 is coming the fastest you have ever seen it.
