Last night I was very tempted to stress eat, but instead I had a glass of wine. The hospital bills are ROLLIN' in from my gallbladder surgery! It looks like the grand total will be around $9000. Yikes! They can take a number, I guess. I have to buy a new mailbox and a new toilet seat with this paycheck as well. Money...sigh. I should probably find a job that pays me more than half of the average for my experience/degree. Yes, I think I should.
So yesterday's food:
Breakfast - 1.5 scrambled eggs and a small pineapple strawberry smoothie (9 points! That was disappointing!)
Lunch - Wendy's Pair 2 - 1/2 apple chicken pecan salad & small chili (12 points)
Dinner - homemade chicken noodle soup (4 points)
Other - glass of wine (5) & dark chocolate piece (2)
A total of 32 points, so I used the max flex points I can allow myself any day. Not good, but I'm actually kind of proud it wasn't more. I felt like resisting temptation was a big step for me, especially for being stressed. Tonight we're going out for dinner & beers with some friends so I'm trying to save up my points with a light breakfast & lunch. Tomorrow will likely be a gain, though. I'm hoping not, but we shall see!!!
It snowed last night, our first 'real' snow of the winter, though it's still pretty weak. I'm glad, but I'm expecting we'll get slammed in the upcoming months...Here's my puppy Stinson in the snow for the first time :)
Did you make the smoothie yourself or get it from someplace?
