Day 76

Another loss this week! Another 1.2 lbs gone. Not as big as I had hoped for, but considering I played hostess for my son's 4th birthday party yesterday and prepared all of the yum-o food myself I did very well! This week will be only mildly less crazy, only school finals and projects to take care of, but a lot of them. So since the pool is open I'm going to try to get some laps in for activity... I did just buy a cute bathing suit after all!

Day 75

Today was my son's birthday party (yay Antonio! 4 years old, wow!) and of course I did all of the cooking... And I made:

• Rainbow cake and cupcakes (and about 3 times too many)
• Gazpacho served in cucumber shooters
• Home made guacamole
• Roasted red pepper and veggie wraps
• Roast beef and cheddar on caramelized onion rolls
• Turkey and Swiss one ciabatta rolls
• Ham and cheddar with tomato, lettuce, onion on multigrain
• Jello Mousse (house specialty)  : )
• Caprese salad skewers with fresh mozzarella
• Old fashioned Coke in glass bottles
• Macaroni salad and cole slaw
• Toasted ravioli with marinara dipping sauce

And I managed to eat only my daily allotment of points!!! I was so good! I enjoyed myself and am in good shape (I think) for the scale tomorrow morning.

Did I mention my new trick?  Bending over forward and not getting winded? Love that one!
