Day #3

Woke up and did exactly what they tell you not to do: I weighed myself. My punishment for sneaking a peek at the scale so soon? I GAINED 2lbs. Shortly after stepping on the scale, I got a text from Eileen. All it said was, "Down 1.4" (The bitch.) Then I took my son and 5 of his friends to the mall for his birthday. We started with lunch at Chili's. I burned up most of my day's points on the chips & salsa. However, I think it's only right that I should get bonus points for walking right past the Auntie Ann's Pretzel stand, and for sitting with Ruthanne at the Dave & Buster's bar without so much as a sip of anything, while the boys spent two hours blowing things up. Also, let the record show that the cookies I bought for my son to take to school tomorrow sit unmolested on my kitchen counter. So when I hop on the Healthometer again, I expect a downward movement this time, or I'm taking the thing back for a refund. (Total points today: 20)
