Day 106 - 249: a VERY Happy Halloween

Boo...YAH. That "4" has been a long time coming. I jumped on the scale tonight after a couple of hours of trick-or-treating, just kind of half-assed, really not expecting any progress whatsoever. So, when I saw it, it jumped right back off the scale as if I had been stung. Then I creeped back up to it, nudging it with my toe as if somehow it might jump up and yell "trick-or-treat" at me.

That weigh-in is a nice positive reinforcement as I prepare to jump headfirst into the ultimate temptation: a girls' retreat. I've been reminding myself for a week, "it's not about the food, it's about the company." Yeah, so, that's all well and good, but I'm still about to have a nervous snit about resisting the queso and chips.

I have two more days to gear myself up for this, so sing it with me now: it's not about the food, it's about the company, it's not about the food, it's about the company... I believe in fairies, I believe in fairies....

Breakfast - Atkins bar and almonds
Lunch - same
Dinner - mozzarella balls with balsamic vinegar

Exercise - trick or treat...2 hours worth with very squirrelly young boys

Bollywood P.S. - This past week or so has been kind of nutty, and I really miss my Bollywood. Here's hoping I get some time in peace to watch my next movie and do a little Bollywood exercise over the weekend. And, in a little bit of frustrating reality, I found out that my sons' Open House is on same night as the premiere of Jab Tak Hai Jaan. So, late movie for me!!!!!
