WEEK 2 -- DAY 11 -- ANOTHER MOVIE DAY

I'm not feeling so happy with myself today.  It started off with my least favorite thing in the world to do.....a visit to the doctor.  It was just my normal six month checkup where he draws blood to make sure my blood sugar is under control and takes my blood pressure to make sure that is okay.  I'm sure when the blood test comes back, I'm going to get an angry call from him.

In any event, since he was taking blood, I had to fast until the appointment was over which was 11:15AM.  I was meeting a friend at noon at Cracker Barrel which is famous for their pancakes.  So, since I hadn't eaten any breakfast yet, I decided to have the famous pancakes which I combined with a side order of bacon and some white buttered toast.  It's almost criminal to post this picture of the actual pancakes on a weight loss blog.

Afterwords, we went to see The Impossible, which is a movie about the tsunami in Thailand in 2004.  It was an edge of your seat kind of movie.  Thank goodness I was so full from breakfast that I had no desire to have any candy during the flick.  I love going to the movies.  We try to see as many of the Oscar related movies as possible before the actual awards show.  Next up next week is Lincoln.

I was still full when I got home so really wasn't interested in any dinner.  But I did have two handfuls of Cheezits and then the worst thing I could have added -- one of those coconut Tastycakes.  It's small but I really felt awful after eating it.

The other curious thing was my weigh in at the doctor's office.  I did have all of my clothes on and I do remember that my doctor's scale always represented a different number than my home scale but, it had me weighing 232 lbs.  Even if my clothes weighed three or four pounds, that pretty much puts me at my weigh-in weight on Monday which stinks.  But then again, I'm not weighing myself again until Tuesday so I should be okay.  Time will tell.
