The Day After

How funny is this? I mentioned a few days ago that my weight had gone back up a couple pounds - 2.5 to be exact. Well, it has gone back down - and this is the day AFTER Thanksgiving.

I didn’t do too badly yesterday, but I did eat whatever I wanted. I had small portions of turkey, homemade mac and cheese, veggie casserole, a couple slices of lemon cake, a slice of pumpkin pie with cream cheese in it (heavenly, I’ll tell ya), stuffing, chicken later on, garlic mashed potatoes and a few other things I can’t recall.

So imagine my delight when I got on the scale this morning. The 2.5 pounds were gone. And this was AFTER lots of food and a semi-intense 45-minute elliptical workout yesterday. You all know I’m used to seeing the scale go UP after intense workouts, not down. Maybe… just maybe… my body is starting to really respond.

Today I’m planning to do 50 minutes on the elliptical.
