Dieter's Log: Day 45 & My Week in Nut Shell

So we weighed in AGAIN! This week was a little tough. I only lost 1.0lbs...I know, I know...it's still a loss and not a gain, but I can't help but feel a bit sad about it. Derek on the other hand, is still doing good. He lost another 3.6lbs...he's a freakin' fat smashing machine...his total is now 27lbs. WOW!!

So my week in a nutshell:

Thursday, March 6th - Derek's birthday, but we spent it traveling to Fargo to get Laurie and Dale. We ate at the Pita Pit and it's now my new favorite place to eat. We didn't get back until after 8pm and still went to work out after that. What a way to spend your birthday!?

Friday, March 7th - We worked and then worked out, then we had supper at Laurie's for Derek's birthday. She made chinese food-sweet and sour chicken and beef and veggies, all with brown rice of course. We shared a small piece of cake and a scoop of low fat ice cream, which was sooo goood! Because I was suppose to work the weekend at 6:30am but was now off because of the funeral, I had to go back to work from 9:30pm-closing, which ended up not happening until 2am. So I opened Friday morning at 6:30am and closed at 2:00am Saturday...what a long ass day!

Saturday, March 8th - We headed to Thief River Falls at 10am and got there around 3pm. The funeral sucked, of course, but it was good to see everyone else. Lots of tears were shed. And then there was the food....you know that everyone goes to funeral for the food, not the people! They had the church ladies cook food and they made spaghetti, and tuna noodle hot dish, and macaroni hot dish, and lasagna, and mac and cheese, and not to mention the dessert bars, and dessert bars, and dessert bars! OMG!!! But I made Derek say no and we chose to sit and watch everyone else eat, and then we had to tell them all about our new diet. Most of them were very impressed and could see that we were skinnier, which is cool. I was smart and brought healthy snacks, so we ate those after we were done at the church. When we got back to the hotel, we even worked out in the hotel fitness room, which just proved to everyone how dedicated we were. Not to mention that the "fitness room" was just a bike and treadmill in the pool area with glass walls, so they could all see us being gross and sweaty.

Sunday, March 9th - We drove back home to DL and I tried to recoop some of my weekend.

Monday and Tuesday - I worked from 6:30am - 5:00pm and it sucked, but what are ya gonna do?

So I'm still kinda boring and really tired this week so far. I can't wait for Friday! So I can do NOTHING!!! Well, maybe I should do laundry and dishes....we'll see!
