Weekend Update

I had a great weekend.  Saturday we had family over for a cook-out to celebrate my upcoming birthday, so Saturday was my blow-off day.  I had a sensible breakfast and lunch and enjoyed my dinner!  I had a hot dog, a cheeseburger, macaroni salad (my sister-in-law makes the best macaroni salad!), loaded baked potato salad, a slice of apple pie and a scoop of butter cream ice cream!  Later in the evening I had a slice of peach-berry pie and a scoop of vanilla ice cream.  I really like pie...

My sister made the loaded baked potato salad, but I forgot to tell her that I blow off one day a week.  This salad is loaded with sour cream and she knows that I'm losing weight so she cut back on the sour cream and it was a little dry.  It still tasted great though.  It was even better the next day when I mixed a little light ranch dressing into it!

I got a couple attachments for the weight machine, specifically a tricep rope and a double D handle for low rows.  I also got some cash which I'll use for a new lat bar and flat bench.  These and a set of dumbells will allow me to rotate through 3 different strength routines.  Three different sets of exercises that still allow me to work all the same muscle groups.

Sunday we finished off the left overs, but I cut back my serving size, added a big fresh salad and stayed in my calorie count.

All it takes is patience and work!
