First full week

Fairly successful weekend. Stayed within points and so far, this seems rather easy. The boss left me his potato cake thing from McDonald's, which I carefully tossed in the trash, then ate a six-point Lean Cuisine panini sandwich and my allergy and blood pressure pill.

I weighed in today - wish I could see the scales. Monday is supposed to be my regular weigh-in day and I think I'm down two pounds, but since I can hardly see the scale, I may have to do something about that, like try to attend meetings.

I have a show to work on Saturday at the local arts center, and my favorite chef is doing finger food. Sounds like I save my extra points for that.

All this water may drown me. Yuck. I'm having another lean cuisine deal for lunch - it's fast and cheaper AND better for me than going out to some fast food joint.

This still does not feel like it's terribly hard to do. Hope it stays that way.

One thing that I find interesting is portion sizes with the Lean Cuisine dinners. I have always assumed that I just did not eat normally, and that's why I'm overweight. But I look at these dinners and I honestly don't see anyone I know - even the skinny ones - eating such tiny servings. I will certainly not starve, but if this is normal eating, then I don't know anyone who eats normally. Very strange.
