Day 69 (Saturday 1/10)

BREAKFAST: Oatmeal & an English Muffin w/Cream Cheese. 4 pointsMORNING SNACK: WW Chocolate Cake. 1 point
AFTERNOON SNACK: Chips & Salsa. 6 points

SUPPER: Cheddars Chicken Tender Wrapper, Onion Rings, & a Cookie Monster. WAY TOO MANY POINTS!! (Couldn't find nutrition facts for the restaurant)

POINTS = ???
WATER = 24 oz
EXERCISE = 60 min shoveling snow! (we got 5-6 inches last night!)

My plan for today was to get up when DH for work to go to the gym and was hoping that the weather man would be wrong...he was predicting ice with a dusting of snow on top. Well he was wrong...but not the kind of wrong I was hoping for....we got a TON of snow. So I told DH not to worry about it and I would take care of cleaning out the driveway and sidewalks...only problem is that I had NO idea how to run our new snow blower. My neighbor came out and asked if he could use ours 'cause it bigger than his and he would do our driveway too, so of course I didn't mind. Plus that meant I could shovel instead and burn some calories. And boy did I burn calories, I was sweating so much at the end that I wanted to take my coat off!

But by the time we got done with my house and his it was after 11am and I didn't make it to the gym before they closed. :( So I think I had an ok workout, but today was supposed to be a "run" day and it was 3 miles so I will have to do that tomorrow.

When I got inside from shoveling snow I remembered that I hadn't weighed yet for today so I hopped on the scale and it said 175.5!!!!! I was so excited!!!! That means I'm down 26.5 lbs total!

Last night I was going through my closet and found that pretty much all of my 14s are WAY too loose. I looked at myself in the mirror when I got home from work and thought to myself "How in the world did you think these pants looked ok this morning?" They were so baggie and frumpy looking. So I got out my tote of size 12 pants and almost all, but 2 pairs fit me! It's like getting new clothes! I don't know what I'll do when the size 12s are too small....wait yes I do....SHOPPING!!!
