My First Post

Hi Everybody, :)

Well, here I am typing up my first post on this blog. It feels really good to know that this is here. I feel like I have a safety net now. I'm thinking this blog is really going to help me stay in line.

In keeping with the agreement I think I did pretty well today. I made some good choices and one or two not so good choices but all in all I'm feeling pretty good.

Kerry and I went shopping today and walked around from noon to almost 6:00pm. That time frame includes about 45 minutes for lunch, 45 minutes for coffee and more time in dressing rooms than I care to think about. I don't usually consider shopping cardio but shopping with Kerry is usually more strenuous than many aerobics classes. LOL She really puts me through my paces. I'm thinking that we probably walked around for a good 2 or 3 hours in total. To me, I feel as if I actually got in some exercise.

Food wasn't bad today. Breakfast was a half a bagel with a little cream cheese and a small orange with coffee. Not too bad. Lunch was a big salad with ranch dressing. Again not too bad. Dinner was a small black bean burrito with about 10 chips and a small side of guacamole. I guess I could have done without the chips and guac but still not too bad. I'm done eating for the day so I'm pretty happy with how I did today.

Tomorrow is coming faster than I would like. Kerry is leaving to go back to UF in the afternoon and then we will really see how well I am able to keep up my end of the F*ing Agreement.

Laura, Baby, stop comparing yourself with other people. It's a losing proposition. You can't win because you will never let yourself win. I know how you are about this stuff. Just don't do it. Be happy that you are doing as well as you are and do your best to keep up your part of the F*ing Agreement.

I'll weigh in tomorrow morning and post the results.
