The holiday weekend…

was outstanding.  Completely exhausting but outstanding.  I ended up with almost 30 people at my house on Saturday.  Thank goodness for the friends and family that helped me get through it.  I was pretty much spent on Sunday and spent the day resting.  A brief summary of the 3 days and yesterday:

- On Friday I decided to do my yard work before meeting the trainer at the gym.  Not the best idea I have ever had. *L*  I survived but I was spent afterwards.

- Saturday was a busy but fun day.  I saw some people I had not seen in over a year.  It was great to get reacquainted.   The fireworks were a hit.  As was the deer sausage.  I had to have a little redneck food for the party. ;)

- Several people commented that I had lost weight since they had seen me last.  A great compliment but also a reminder of how easily it is for me to add weight and difficult to take it off.

- I have been eating sushi a lot lately.  Specifically seared and peppered tuna.

- On Sunday I watched some DVD’s.  “The Great Debaters” and “Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead” were very good.  Marisa Tomei is still smoking hot IMO.

- While I was far from perfect in my eating this past weekend, and probably always will be to some extent, I am getting better.  Lots more fruits, vegetables and lean protein.  I have found that I really like Greek yogurt.  Mixed with a little honey or fruit it is a good substitute for ice cream.

- I hit the treadmill yesterday for 40 minutes during lunch.  The treadmill of death tried to kill me.  It almost succeeded.

- I need to get a little more rest and a lot more naughtiness.  Not sure how I am going to go about getting those two to merge into my life, but I will get there.
