Reality check

I had a minuscule gain today (less than 1/2 pound), so maybe I don’t have a terminal illness and I’m actually losing weight because I’m working for it. I’m okay with the gain because I’m eating so much better and I’m moving so much more than I have for several months.

I’m having dinner with a friend tonight, but it’s early enough that I should still at least be able to squeeze in the 25 minute pilates work-out when I get home. The website doesn’t have nutrition info so I’m going to just have to use my best judgment, which sometimes gets me into trouble, but I’m going to skip the YUMMY hibiscus lemonade that I love so much. Just extra $$ and extra cals.

Maybe I can get in some good snowshoeing this weekend to burn off some of tonight’s dinner.

Or maybe I’ll see if the Minnesota Wild will let me spend some ice time with them, to prepare for the annual family boot hockey game which is on 2/13. The only upside to being a little overweight right now is that there’s some built in padding. Which I’ll need. My uncles won’t hesitate to check their opponents into the cheap seats (the snow bank).

Live, love, lose.
