I had a stupid day on Saturday (all day chess tournament for one of my sons, was late and didn't pack food so we were at the mercy of the concessions) and am hoping it was mostly salt. I had been doing well before that. Next week!

Today, I had to stay after school because there is a home basketball game, and I direct the band. I live 30 minutes from school, and it just doesn't make sense to drive all the way home and back. Well, the librarian (who I've become pretty good friends with this year) is starting a zumba class using the DVDs a couple days a week after school. It's for staff and students. I had told her I'd do it, but I forgot that today was the first day! I thought about backing out, but I just couldn't leave her in there with 6 students and no other adults. So I got my Zumba on in my work clothes! Luckily I had on my band t-shirt, but I had on dress pants. I have extra t-shirts I can change into, but I'm still gonna be a bit ripe. Oh well. It was fun. Nextr problem, I've eaten everything I brought with me for dinner and still have 1000 calories left! I have easy mac (kept here for the kids), pb&j (kids again), and concession stand as my choices. "Good me" says pb&j. "Bad me" says WALKING TACO! I'll let you know which one wins!

Not sure if I am going to get to weigh in this week. My scale (Wii) is broken and have not gotten to the gym. Been running out with the warmer weather. Might try on Friday at the gym. Looks like everyone is doing great this week, keep it up!

I am still on track to hit my mini goal next week! I actually hit it yesterday, but then I took a second day off from exercise and had a big meal with friends so today was not a good weigh in day. Oh well. Keeping it real! And it is all progress, no matter how small. Good job everyone!! Have another great week!

I had one day that I was down to 161, but on weigh in day it was back up to 162. Oh well. (Yes I weigh myself more than once a week. I get curious as to what different foods, activities, etc do.) I had to skip Zumba last night to go grocery shopping. Since I was gone most of the weekend, that was a must! I was hoping to get some in after school today, but the coordinator for the zumba here at school is sick. So I'm not sure if it will happen. If not, I suppose I'll go home and do some Wii Fit.
