Day 240

238.  Yes that's right, I lost weight this week.  It feels good to finally see that I can weigh less than 240lbs.  I did it with a lot of help from Lorinda my trainer.  She gives me direction and encouragement.  As I go thru the week in between our visits I always have in the back of my mind, "What would L think of this or that?".  There is also a voice that's not as loud but still there, asking me if I really need to eat that or telling me that it's time to go to the gym.  I've now learned to listen to both.  Here's how my day went:

Belt loop Watch: Funny I wore a pair of pants that used to be my motivational pants and the belt that went with them.  The pants were definitely big on me and I needed a belt. The belt could be pulled a good inch and a half past the last usable loop.  They did hold up my pants but I felt like the kids that wear the really big and loose jeans.  I don't think I will be wearing those pants anymore.  Ha that's very funny when you think about it.  I won't be wearing these pants because they don't fit me.  It's not that they are too small but too big.  Wow that was fun to write. 

Breakfast: A Cherry Pie Larabar and 20oz of cold water.

After work out meal: A hamburger on whole wheat bread with an egg, avocado, tomato, spinach, and sweet potato fries from TJ's.  To drink I had a Honest Peach White Tea.

Dinner:  Got together with friends for our weekly game.  This time though we had a hot dog feast waiting for us.  The dogs were foot long dogs with buns to match.  All the usual condiments including sauerkraut.  I brought some veggies and fruit that I planned on BBQing.  It was an interesting experiment.  They turned out okay but probably could have been cooked longer to get the full effect.  So I had two dogs and some pineapple, beet, cauliflower, cookies, a Fiber One bar, and some other fruit.
