Weigh in & stuff

Well, honestly - I didn't weigh in tonight.  Randy has Tue / Wed / Thu off this week for comp time for wasting most of a weekend on work stuff, so he took his car into the shop yesterday and needed to pick it up tonight.  He's lucky we kept my old Escort so he had a way to get to his dentist appointment this morning!

Anyhoo.  Tracking was crappy this week.  Activity was decent.
I spent 3 hours out shoveling snow Monday and I only got 2 APs for it????  Sheesh.   Saturday also included cleaning stalls & lugging horse food & bedding around, too.  My sister had a minor medical procedure & couldn't do any lifting, so Miss Angela & I went to help out around her place.
 It's a snowbank with wheels!
So, I've come up with a plan.  And it's gonna be a tough one.  I'm going to avoid sweets & such and limit myself to 2 Coke Zeros a day for the rest of February.  And I dug out the spiral bound tracker to do that, too.  Oh yeah, I went back on the DWLZ.com message boards for the extra support.  It's been a while since I've been on there and they changed everything!  So I have to figure that all out again. 

Randy is all aghast - but what about Valentines Day?  What about it?  My least favorite holiday. I was told I'm "too practical" to expect dinner out on Valentines Day.  Pppft.  Anyway, the girl & I are leaving mid-day Friday the 13th for Kentucky for a dance comp and won't be home til Monday sometime. So we'll be going out anyway!  I'll pack snacks & drinks for the 4 1/2 hour drive there & to have in the room and the hotel offers hot breakfast in the morning, so we should be good there.  

I really didn't want to get on a scale this week anyway, Mother Nature usually isn't nice to me.  So wish me luck on the NO SWEETS thing - I'm gonna need it!  

...and of course out of the corner of my eye I see the giant Peppermint Bark Ghiradelli chocolate bar I got for Christmas and this is really going to put a kabosh on my Tim Horton's visit in the morning.  I can't cheat already - today was my first day!  So I guess I'll stick with my oatmeal for breakfast.  Sigh.
