Super Bowl Sunday--a Test!

Today is going to be a test because we are going to a Super Bowl party with Lynn and the twins. This day will be a challenge for two reasons; one is that this is the first Super Bowl for Lynn without Kyle in 23 years. The party is the one that they always hosted at their home because Kyle wanted Lynn to be there. It will be difficult for her; this is also the first party/big activity with the group that they always hung out with. We are going to support her.

The other reason this will be a challenge is that there will be a lot of delicious, fattening foods at the party. We are bringing Chas' wings, so that won't be bad for me. He grills them and then just tosses them with Wingers sauce, which isn't fattening. I'll plan to load up on the carrots and celery. :)

I'm sore from yesterday. I definitely feel that this is good for me, because I slept through the entire night without waking up until 6:30. That's a biggie for me. That's how I can tell if I am getting enough exercise or not. After yesterday's workout, I felt really good.

We are still working on moving the boxes, so that also counts as Activity points earned. Basically, anything I do that isn't sitting around is considered some type of Activity point.

I have several friends who are using HCG. I know it works for a lot of people, but I really don't think it would work for me. I applaud anyone who can only eat 500 calories per day and stick with it for six weeks. I don't know about the long-term effects of HCG, but I think it is good for those people out there who can do it. I just don't think I am one of those people.

I know that if I stick to it, I will lose, because that is how I lost before. I just quit eating junk. I eat only healthy portions. I exercise. It's not rocket science, it's just that I have to remember that "nothing tastes as good as thin feels."
