Last night, I was in a mood... When I got home, I was starving, the dogs kept fighting, I was exhausted, and overwhelmed with the bazillion things I felt I needed to do. So, I took the dogs out to go potty, started on our bathroom project (we're having to scrape wallpaper off of drywall, and it is the most tedious project IN THE UNIVERSE), and went upstairs to start dinner. By the time I had dinner in the oven, as well as lunch for today,my husband came home, tired, dirty, and starving. So, I made him take a shower, and we ended up eating my intended lunch for today for dinner last night - chicken wings with a tuscan spice blend. We paired this with spicy buffalo dip made with sour cream, and potato chips. For good measure, I threw in a couple of diet sodas, too. As well as a cup of lowfat Kefir. The intended dinner ended up in the fridge.

What amazed me - I was only able to eat 2 of the wings, and a handful of chips. What amazed me even more is after I entered it into my weight watchers tracker, I was right on for the points for the day. I figured that my calorie bomb would have pushed me over, but I actually made it. Yay, me. I also took a Vitamin D supplement - my doc wants me to take 50,000 IUs twice a week. She RXd it to me back on 11/4, but it's taken me this long to get on the ball and actually start taking it. I don't take vitamins at all, and probably should - I noticed a few weeks ago that I was losing more hair than normal in the shower, so that's not good.

So, I really need to focus on what exact tools and habits I'm going to use to help me reach my nutritional needs. That'll be for the next blog. I just had to post my amazement that even though I had an epic "IDGAF" attitude towards food last night, it's been the first day this week I've actually not gone over on my points. Weigh in with my Wii Fit on Monday!
