Still old and fat at 270.8 lbs

Well I went to my weigh in at Weight Watchers last night (Monday), and I was 8.8lbs lighter. Now I know that the majority of the loss was water, but it still a nice loss. I have been (tracking)writing everything down that I consume except for water, and I will start writing that down this week.

Doing this WW thing will be ok, I wasn't hungry but a couple of times and when I was it did not take much to make that go away. I almost cut fried food out but succumbed to hash browns twice and Hooters fries once. And the taste of sugar was almost nonexistent but the Superbowl happened and I fell for a slice of cherry pie and 2 brownies. Now this could of spelled disaster but they were all within my daily points allowance. I have also come to the realization that if I only have a small lunch that I will not perish, there is always a thought in the back of my mind that I will starve to death.

So in the time of a week I have figured out that if I write down all my eats that I am more aware of the things I eat, that I will not stare and perish and losing water weight is a good thing.

Monday After Superbowl

Well it is the Monday after the Superbowl and a week of ice. I really do not know how those folks up north deal with the cold and cabin fever, better them than me. So let's talk a little football shall we. Halftime sucked, it should have been a country show being's how it was in Texas, what were the planners thinking, halftime is for the fans, enough about that. As far as the game went, it was pretty good, and I am glad that Pittsburgh lost. Now let's talk ice, the week pretty well sucked also. If the weather would have been like it should have been , North Texas would have hosted a really successful  Superbowl and we would have got all the out of towners money. Now that's not to say that it doesn't snow and have ice storms in February because we do.

Snowed In

Feb. 1 2011 Ice storm who would have thought it, well I would. All one has to do is live here in Dallas for 40 years and they can figure it out. I got up to go to work and was driving in it at 5:30am and it was not really that bad, I was at the Walmart on I30 in Rockwall, that is where i meet the guy I carpool with.

 He didn't show up so I called him and he was already downtown as he got a call to be in early in case of any water pipe busts (he is a plumbing supervisor) and he said that it was pretty bad out there, so I decided that I didn't need to go to work that bad as I don't make enough to cover the deductible in case I am in a accident.

I decided to gas up but the gas was $2.95 a gallon up from $2.82 last night, so I went to Tom Thumb's ($2.81) in Rowlett got gas then went into Tom Thumb and got  some bread and Dr.Pepper's and when I got on 66 to go back to Rockwall the road had about 2" of icy slush and it was getting worst.

With the sorry road conditions and cold temperatures, this will put a damper on the Superbowl festivities, hopefully we will get back to the weather that is easier to travel and party in.

Game Day

Well I shall try not to ramble much. The teams have been set for the Superbowl, Green Bay and Pittsburgh, although I don't care for either one of them it is here in Dallas showcasing Cowboys Stadium (aka Jerry's World). this should really be interesting around here for the next couple of weeks. I just hope the weather holds out and we don't get any ice. Party On.

Another good thing about the game is that there are good grocery coupons, and it will be time to stock up on a few things.

Well one more thing, today is my son's birthday, he is 16, it is a scary age for me. He is a good kid, he loves to hunt and fish and play his PS3. He has a small 12' aluminium v-bottom jon boat with a 10hp motor on it.
