Day 5

Hello everyone

Today has been one of those days when you start out with all the RIGHT intentions and somehow you go left. I slept in today, I was up late watching movies and on the Wii Fit trying to work off that monster fat burrito that I had yesterday. My game plan for today was to get up, finish working on my meal plan, clean up and head to the grocery store. I was going to then come home, put all my new healthy food options away and then Wii Fit for my 30 minutes of aerobics. Then the plans changed. I procrastinated a bit and it was about 1pm when I was going to head to the grocery. Jumped in the car and started her up, but wait something didn't sound quite right. I made the decision to turn the car off and forget about it but wait.... It wouldn't turn off. That's right, I tried to stall it, take the key out ( which at first it wouldn't let me but then it did and the car kept on going), and finally in confusion called my husband whose answer was to call triple A. Alrighty then. There was an Oder about the car, not of overheating but some other not so pretty scent which I just couldn't place my finger on. I called my next door neighbor to see if they could help but they were stumped too. A few more neighbors later and the car was STILL running. I gave up and dialed triple A. As I was speaking to them the sound of the car changed yet again. Now the smell the was getting really bad and that's when the thick black smoke started billowing out from my engine. At this point Iwas pretty sure I was NOT going to the grocery. To make a long story even longer I jumped in the car and grabbed my keys so I could run into the house for a fire extinguisher (mental note to get one for both the car and the garage) and just like magic the car turned off. So I had to have the car towed to the dealership and then bum a ride to my father-in-laws house to borrow his extra car for a few days.

Now that its close to 4pm I was finally able to head off the grocery. Shopping hungry is bad enough but shopping upset and hungry is the pits. This is when I came to realize that I had not eaten anything all day. I had a list and plan and wasn't going to stray. I approached the check out line with my groceries and list and waited for the total. It is so much more expensive to eat healthy. It should be the other way around and maybe we wouldn't have so many obese people living in this country. My little half full grocery basket with food for ONE PERSON totaled 155.00 and that's using a store bonus card. I realize that I really had nothing in the house to start with and bought food for three meals and two healthy snacks a day but come on 155.00? I hung my head and brought my purchases home and put them away.

For my big one and only meal today I had a WW pizza and a banana. I could have cooked something so much more appetizing but in reality I was tired and stressed. I just finished off my Wii aerobics 45 minutes of it and am going to have a healthy snack while I watch some television.

Here are today's numbers
Weight: 278.2
BMI: 42.17
Useless Wii age 38
Fit Credits: 3 hours 52 minutes

My weight is down 1.3 pounds from yesterday for a total loss of 3.1 pounds so far and my BMI has gone down .20 from yesterday and a grand total of .46 change since I started on Dec 30Th. Does my typing look thinner?

Now that I have better food choices and know what I need to do with the Wii watch out skinny sizes HERE I COME!!!!!!!!!


WII FIT MII!!!!!!!!!!!!
