get serious

187.5 this morning. Outlook is not good. My ring was also pretty tight, though, and I've been drinking a ton of water today. So if any of that is water retention, it should be gone by tomorrow morning. Still, the best I can probably do is maintain.

Yesterday was a good food day, right up until we went to Outback. I almost ordered the grilled chicken with steamed veggies, but then I said, "But I'm at Outback." So I ordered the smallest steak on the menu (besides the filet, because Rob's not made of money, you know. And I don't care for filet much). Which was fine, except for the baked potato and the dessert that I also ordered.

But, bygones. Today has been good so far. It is after noon, and I have only consumed 13.5 points. There are two more clementines in my snack bag, which will take me through the afternoon (I finally found these at a grocery store by Rob's house. My stores don't carry them, the bastards). If I can keep it light for dinner (I'm thinking 7-ish points), I can actually have an under-plan day this week. I know you're not really supposed to do that, but considering how massively over points I've been for the rest of the week, I think it'll be a welcome change for my body.

I left my work badge at Rob's house during Friday's party-dressing frenzy. This has two unfortunate consequences--1. I have to call the computer operator to let me into my office (so someone knows when I get here in the morning--but today I was early anyway), and 2. I can't go work out. I was going to walk this morning to make up for it, but I was tired and didn't feel like it. I'm debating whether I should just change into workout clothes here in my office, then walk the track. I probably won't, though. What good is working out at work if I can't get incentive points for it? I think it's about time I got some internal motivation.
