Eating at home is rough!  It seems that at home I have so many more choices than I do at school!   I have been helping with crafts at vacation bible school with my mom and it is in the evenings ans dinner was served.  Definitly not point friendly foods.  Since I got home on Tuesday I have managed to get some form of excercise in even if it is just walking for 30 minutes.  Yesterday I went to the Y and I ran for 24 minutes straight at 5.7 mph!!!!!!!!!  Woah!  That is about 2.25 miles.  I am sure I will be ready for the 10k next July!
 
Yesterday I went with my friend who is getting married and 2 of the other bridesmaids to pick out and try on dresses.  Now when it comes to something like this I really don't care what I have to wear.  I will just go with the flow.  Since I had no clue what size I was, I just grabbed a bunch of different sizes to try on.  I ended up being able to fit into a size 16!  Now it was a little tight, but nonetheless it still zipped up.  I won't have to order it until late December, so that still gives me time to lose some more weight.
 
I am meeting with my trainer tomorrow and I can't wait to see him!

So on Saturday I went to Chik-a-Filet at the mall with my roomate. I had a grilled chicken sandwhich and some waffle fries. The sandwhich was ok and so were the fries. Nothing spectacular. In fact, after a couple of fries I could really taste the oil. After dinner I went to the Great American Cookie Company. I have been craving a Doozie for what seems like months now. A doozie is 2 cookies with frosting in the middle. Boy was it good!!!!! But it sure is a doozie points wise- 12 points! Shopping wise I got a shirt size XL from NY and Company that I have been eyeing since may. It is what I would like to classify as "booty gear." But this is tasteful booty gear. It has only one sleeve, it is black, and on the one sleave it is connected with this silver ring. Hmm I wonder if that makes any sense?

On Sunday, my friend was in town, so I have been playing tour guide. I splurged when we went to the Pancake Pantry. I had strawberry pancakes AND hash brown. Man was it good too =) I showed them all around Nashville. For dinner we went to Blackstone brewery. I had never been there before. It was pretty good. I got a cobb salad. I used the fork in the dressing method. Overall, I think I made a pretty good choice considering my options. Later we went drinking downtown. My "drinking" consisted of Diet Coke. Even though I didn't drink alcohol I still had a good time. I definitly had a good time playing foosball and I was the best player out of the three of us =)

Also on Sunday I got this really cute black skirt for $15 from the Gap outlet. Today I got a white wind coat from the Gap that I am in love with =)

That's all for now =)
