So the Piggy Farm scale was not so nice to me this week. Only lost .2 pounds....BOO! But a loss is a loss! After looking at my weekly points tracker it was apparent that I was not drinking the required 6 servings of water a day, I was not eating the required 5 servings of fruits and veggies daily, and I wasn't eating near my required daily points, so basically it was my fault I didn't lose weight! So this week to get back on track I am sticking to the program 100%!! So far so good. I have realized, however, the reason drinking so much water helps you lose weight is not because it cleans your system out, or because it hydrates you, it is because the more water you drink the more times you have to pee, which means the more times you have to walk to the bathroom. I swear I walked a mile and a half from my office to the bathroom on Thursday!
Well like I said a loss is a loss and to celebrate my loss my brother and I had lunch at my favorite Mexican Food Restaurant (what did you expect from a fat kid???) It was glorious per usual...anyway after lunch we were talking about this weekend and how we are all getting together with my grandmother. I was trying to give him directions to the hotel where we are meeting, here are the directions: "Take the Shackleford Road Exit. You will pass Mama B's Burgers, you will go to the top of the hill and the hotel is behind Krispy Creme Donuts, if you get to Cracker Barrel you have gone to far." As I went through the directions again in my head it dawned on me that all my landmarks are restaurants. Such a fat kid moment when you realize that directions you give are dictated by your local eateries!
