Not a bad day in how it's been going, but a bad day in how well I ate. I was bad! I was CRAVING chocolate. I have been all week. Something about Valentines and all the chocolate commercials and the reality that I wasn't going to be getting any for valentines, I HAD to have chocolate! So when we went to lunch at Chili's, yes you have it right, we had the Chocolate Molten Cake. It's not staying in my points for the day, but I used some of my weekly points to eat it. I'm quite satisfied and when we went shopping for groceries I didn't feel the urge to buy tons of candy or a cake or brownies. So it did good while I was doing bad! I did plan my food for the week and Richard and I replaced some item in our fridge with less pointed stuff. Also while we were waiting on my sweet hubbies alignment at Sears, we decided to take back an item, which I ended up getting something else for night time, super cute and pink! I love it!, and shopped around the mall a little where I found CUTE shoes for 10 bucks, and we got a piece of art to put up on our huge wall to replace the wreath that was there and looked FABULOUS during the christmas Holidays! And some things for for when we finally get our King bed in and we'll do more decorating in our bedroom, which we purchased some really good looking sconces and are going to look FABULOUS! For half the price of the other ones we were looking at! I LOVE stuff on sale. And the one thing in everything we purchased that actually relates to this blog is we purchased a George Forman grill with a bread/bun warmer on top at Sears for 30 bucks on sale! I need to be able to grill, and I'm not an outside grilling kind of gal, so we're trying to make it so I can cook some chicken while my sweet husband is out of town. The pamphlet says it only takes 9 min to cook the meat, which is way less than almost any other thing I would cook. So it'll be a great source for me to cook when I'm short on time.
We had a really good dinner together, and even made some ranch dressing from light mayonnaise, and 2% milk with the seasoning and it wasn't bad. I'll probably stick with light Italian and when I'm craving ranch to just have that since the points are SO low! I weighed myself today out of curiosity and I have high hopes for my weigh in on Wednesday!! We'll see how well it goes and I'll post my results. Tomorrow I'm working out at a friends house, we'll see how long I'll be able to last, probably not long, but I'll do my best to hang in there! I'll post more about my progress and struggles tomorrow!
