Saturday...

 It's Saturday, which Friday's eating didn't go so great but also not so bad either. 

It's time to drop the beers! They are high in calories at around 180! I do like the Vodka spritzers that come in around 100 calories. I tried pineapple High Low spritzer and I really liked it. I can have two for one of the beers! Maybe just keep beer to a sip of Steve's from now on! This is how I gained all the weight having beers on the weekends and through the week during covid to pass the time. I do just stop after 1 beer, but with the calories it's just not worth it! 

What did I eat on Friday? 

popcorn for lunch 130 cal

1/2 not very ripe pomegranate 50 cal

4 fried wings with skin and sweet sauce and some blue cheese 400/500? 

Bar popcorn 2 cups? Not sure of calories 200

6 slices of Canadian bacon 120 

Grand total 1000

That's above 500, and around 1000 for the day which is my weekend splurge. I will have another splurge day today with pizza tonight and a drink. 

Just makes me more hungry the next day having drinks over food and picking higher cal foods and eating  less of it. 

I did purchase some sweet potatoes and more not so very ripe pomegranates to eat this week. I'll cook up the sweet potatoes and have those for dinner plain. That will be my go to along with Canadian bacon this week and then the following week, I'm going to get back to having veggie loaded chicken Thai soup! I am craving a lot of pasta sauce on some zucchini, mushrooms, tomatoes and onion. That will have to be one meal too. Sounds delicious! 

I got my 2nd shingles shot last night. My arm was pretty sore all last night and still is today. I felt super tired and had a low fever the first round. This time I just had a slight headache last night and over slept this morning after being up hours early this morning. 

Here it's almost 10 am and I just did some yoga, blogged and now to do some floor exercise, and head to the gym. After I'm going to go ski when it warms up and we have dinner reservations tonight at 6:15pm. I'm thinking we will head out early, have a drink at a brewery / play some cribbage and then head to the restaurant. We'll be home early is my prediction! Time to burn some calories and get motivated to get going! 

I''m thinking Sunday night, I want to go down hill skiing at Buck hill. It's only $20 or early in the morning  10 to noon which is only $20. I just need to rearrange my work schedule on Monday  or some other day to do that! Maybe Tuesday or Friday this week too? 

Still need to get my hair cut. I'm waiting till my stomach is gone before I do that. Or before V-day! 

It's already been over 1-1/2 months on my weight loss journey! What can I accomplish in another 1-1/2 months? 20 more pounds gone or more! That's what the plan is! The end of Feb I should be in a better body! 

I already feel so much better in my clothes. They are no longer tight. They are loose and my pants are slipping down. Very soon I'll have to switch out and no longer wear my bigger XL sizes or even Large!
