Three Pounds!

I was so excited this morning (I still am!).  I lost 3.6 pounds.  The .6 that I gained last week and another 3!  That's a total of 9 pounds. 

For some reasons I just feel heavy on Saturday mornings.  I did NOT want to get up this morning.  I realized there were two other meetings this morning so I went ahead and hit snooze.  Because I felt heavy I went ahead and walked the dogs.  I can't believe how hot it was at 9 am!  But,  maybe that's what loosened me up so I had a loss.  What ever it was, I was sure happy!

Of course when I got in the car, I realized that I was late for the meeting, not 20 minutes early.  I went ahead and went anyway and I'm glad I did.  It was a different leader and a much larger group.  I really liked him so I may start going to the 10:30 meeting.  That lets me sleep in on Saturdays!

Tonight, I met my uncle and his partner for dinner at my favorite restaurant in Petaluma.  It's called Le Bistro and I started going there with my grandmother Sarge (Marge the Sarge) close to 25 years ago.  The sad thing is, I almost always have the same thing.  I start with a salad, they chop a bunch of veggies into confetti for the top of the salad.  For the entree I had pan seared Parmesan crusted tiger prawns.  You get 5 prawns and 5 potato medallions along with 6 green beans & 2 asparagus spears.  It doesn't sound like  a lot, but it's the perfect size. 

Normally for dessert I get the Kahlua Gelato torte but they had some homemade chocolate pots de creme.  Oh my - was it wonderful!  I had brought a bottle for Brounello wine from Italy.  To have a bite of the chocolate and then a sip of wine - heaven!  It was so good.  If you are ever near Petaluma, I highly recommend this restaurant.  They are only open for dinner, don't take parties larger than 4 and reservations are generally required.  They had to turn away two tables this evening because they didn't have room for them.

I'll try to track my points tomorrow.  I'm sure that I used most of my weekly extra points, but every bite was worth it!  I just have to stay on plan the rest of the week!

Hope you're having a great weekend!
