Wet weekend
Well the bad news is that it rained all weekend the good news is that it was nice enough for bike rides outside Wed and Thurs. I had my wi at Jenny Craig on Saturday morning and it has been 2 weeks since I was in but I was down 4.6 which is good but less than the 6.8 pounds I somehow had gained in one week for the last wi. This weekend was a good one though, we went to my cousins' son's confirmation on Saturday so ended up going to the gym then eating breakfast and then nothing til dinner and I was starving but ordered a salad with the dressing on the side and used my lowfat packets of dressing. I did have 2 glasses of wine but overall way low on calories and the scale was down this morning so I am holding my breath to say what the scale says tomorrow.
Today was a planned no workout day but did walk to the restaurant that we met some friends for brunch, I had the fruit, granola, yogurt thing I am sure the granola had plenty of fat in it and the yogurt was full fat too but given my choices - biscuits and gravy, pork shoulder cilaquiles, eggs benedict, bbq goat, with beans, a sweet fried cornbread thing, huckleberry scone with lemon curd etc you get the idea. Then since we ate at 11:30 and the time change the dh and I ended up eating dinner about 6 so once again only 2 meals and no real snacking. I had made this pizza dough a couple of days ago so we rolled that out really thin and topped it with canadian bacon, red pepper, cherry tomatoes, and cheese of course. It was really good, very crispy. I had bought a new baking stone to bake my bread on and used that so maybe that I what made it so tasty. I had some key lime sorbet later and baked up 2 loaves of bread that I have been making over the last 3 days. By the time I baked it and it cooled it was late and not hungry so I just tasted it and it did turn out well. I will pass one loaf off to my SIL tomorrow not sure about the other loaf. Going to the gym tomorrow morning. Oh and we have been on a travel planning whirlwind. Booked tickets to go to Providence RI on Saturday and coming back Monday morning. One of those netsaver fares. Then booked tickets to Philly to go to another cousins' daughther's confirmation at the end of April. We are probably going to London May 8th and trying to find a long weekend to go to Portland OR.
