home, where my thoughts escaping...

yeah, I'm home right now, taking a minute before I go get Noah from daycare. We had an all company meeting this afternoon, and the last hour is open bar and socializing. Since I'm not really the socializing sort (who'da guessed?), I always go home when that starts. Beat the traffic, and all that.

I've had a pretty good day, foodwise. That Kashi cereal is amazing...a cup of that holds me until about 12:30. Most cereals only stave off the hunger pangs until 10:30 or so. The super-sugar ones make me hungrier than if I hadn't eaten anything at all. But this...this is a keeper. I'm sure I'll get sick of it if I eat it every day, so I think I'm going to start rotating it with eggs every other day, or something. Whatever the case on breakfast, I was so busy this morning, and the company meeting was this afternoon, so I've only used 12 points today. I'm going to try to stick to 10 or less for dinner, so that I still meet my minimum but can make up some more of the bank deficit before tomorrow's weigh-in. I really, really want to make the goal this week.

Speaking of weigh-ins, I've been doing the obsessive stepping on the scale routine every morning this week, and it's stayed pretty constant. For the beginning of the week it was hovering in the 197s, but for the last two days it's been 198.0. Either one would be fine for tomorrow's weigh-in. I'd really like to post a loss of 1.4 or higher, because that would get me to the 10# mark for weight watchers. It'd be cool to hit that this week...but if I don't, I'm sure I will next week.

Right now, I'm debating whether or not to get a little exercise in before I pick up Noah...it's hotter than the blazes outside right now, so it wouldn't be terribly pleasant to walk. That's really the only thing I think I could stand to do in the heat, though. If I tried to bike, I'd probably pass out. I've been in Texas for almost 5 years now, but the heat still gets to me quickly. God bless air conditioning!

Well, if I'm going to do anything, I better get moving now. I've got a church group meeting tonight, and I'm going to be bringing snacks, so I'm thinking fruit. Which means I have to go buy some at some point, cut it up, etc. Fun, fun...
