Friday 9-2-11

Today was a really good day! Baby girl slept 12 hours in a row last night, so I was well rested when I got up around 7. When I got up I had breakfast and coffee and then finished organizing my donation stuff into boxes to put outside. I also met up with the realtor to hand over some keys. (Our home is officially on the market! Fingers crossed we sell it quickly!) In other news, my niece's huge princess party is tomorrow and I have been excited for it all day. I dedicated a song to her on SingSnap today. I sang a Snow White song since she loves Snow White, and then I worked on some super cute tutu sets.

After lunch I ran some errands with the kids. We went to Babies R Us, Target, Michael's and then to a few stores in the Bressi Ranch area, including Postal Annex and Trader Joe's. I never worked out today but I don't feel too bad since it's not like I was totally sedentary. Right now I am kicking back with a delicious, fruity margarita before I bathe the kids and put them to bed. I'm hoping I have a good weigh-in tomorrow morning. Hmm, maybe these margaritas aren't such a good idea after all. Oops! Oh well, if it doesn't go well tomorrow it's ok because my official weigh in isn't until Monday anyway. I'd just love to meet my mini-goal of entering the 120's by tomorrow.  So anyway, this is what my menu looked like today:

Breakfast (9 pts)
1/2 c. egg whites, 2 slices of center cut bacon, 2 slices of Sara Lee Delightful whole wheat toast with Smart Balance Light, and 2 lattes, each made with 1/2 c. organic skim milk, 1/2 Tbsp sugar free hazelnut creamer and Splenda.

Lunch (9 pts)
2 c. homemade hearty turkey & 9-veggie chili (thawed from my deep freezer), 1 oz of reduced fat pepper jack cheese and 1 oz of Baked Tostitos Scoops for dipping.

Snack (2 pts)
Medium organic peach and 1 1/2 light string cheese. (The 1/2 is because I helped J finish his too...oops.)

Dinner (17 pts)
4 oz of carne asada (weight before grilling), 1/2 c. of black beans topped with pico de gallo, mixed organic baby greens topped with 1 Tbsp of Hidden Valley Spicy Ranch, homemade roasted salsa and a flour tortilla. (I treated myself to a white flour tortilla for a nice change.) Oh, and two delicious homemade organic skinny strawberry mango margaritas (which I'm still workin on.) Yum yum yum!

Miraculously I only used 1 weekly point today, so 37 out of 36.  Dinner was so delicious!  You're welcome dear husband of mine, if you are reading this. Have a good night everyone! I'll try to post my weigh-in results in the morning before I leave for the awesome princess party. Wish me luck!
