Ok, now to catch up on other numbers.

I would say this is a new low, but the scale kept jumping between 133.8 and 134, so I'm not really jumping for joy.

Weight Saturday morning: 134.8 (One week before: 134.8)
Calories burned in exercise Saturday: 0

Crap, I gained this week. Up 0.6. Well, it could be worse. Next week I'll get out of the 140s forever for sure. At least last week I was under 140 for all 7 days. If you count the week before it comes to 13 straight days.

Okay, on to my weekend. Friday I gave blood at the Red Cross. Of course I got lightheaded. This is the fifth time, sixth if you count the time when I was a teen. Here's a few photos. Click to enlarge them.


After I gave blood, Brad and I went walking. Here's the photos from our walk.



Saturday I had to stay late with the folks from church. Everyone watched The Nativity Story at pastor's house. It was a good movie. I munched on popcorn while everyone else had popcorn and root beer floats.

Then I went home and Brad met me. We made smoothies at home, then went out to Starbucks. There was a 20 minute wait at Applebee's, so we went to Quinn's Lighthouse for dinner instead. I had a buffalo cheeseburger (no bun) with a side salad instead of fries. Then I ate way too much ice cream before bed, lol.

At the gym today they had some clothes on sale - shirts and hats at 2 for $24. That's $12 apiece instead of the usual $18. I bought a pink tank top with black writing that says, "Look Better in the Buff." I also bought a white hate that has pink lettering saying, "Fit Happens."

NutriSystem has totally redone their Web site and it still has a ton of bugs. Leave it to NS to launch something with a zillion bugs in it. Looks like I'll be on the forums there less until they get things sorted out. All my message notifications that I got over the weekend don't work. I can read whatever post was e-mailed to me, but not anything posted after it. Grrrr. I am spending a great deal of time just learning my way around the new site.
