hi Buddies et al! Went out to coop tonight and drank much wine so I am not sure how coherent this message will be!

Gotta get back into calorie counting, and I think the best way for me to do that is going to be plotting out the week and buy food to fit the plan so every thing is easy cause of yoooouuu! With two cats in the yard, life used to be so hard, now everything is... wait, that is a song not a calorie plan, sorry! Gosh I love designated drivers!

Anyway, I dug out the 1250 calorie-a-day list of food to buy and I will work from there - I have a shopping list of food from Outside magazine, October 2009? that averages out to 2500 calories a day (made for men, it's men's magazine) and I'll cut the amounts in half and get food for a week. That would allow for a little cheating because I am definitely going out on Saturday night date night and Tuesday night steak night. That way I can eat whatever I want out of the fridge and then I'll know I can't be too far over my calorie count if there is still food at the end of the week. That is the latest incarnation of my new plan.

Hope y'all's weekends were great - mine was, and I have tomorrow off too so I'll get some clean up done before the cleaning ladies get here and pay some bills and coordinate my food for the week. My goal is 40 pounds and I hope I make some progress on that this year and soon!

thanks for all the kind words from my buddies and everybody have a good Monday!
