I went to McDonald's yesterday to get one of their tasty Southwest Salad's with grilled chicken. I am obsessed with them lately. They are delicious and filling and well, I just love them. Anyways, I'm waiting in the drive-thru line and I see the woman in front of me only got a vanilla ice cream cone. My internal dialogue "Wow, that looks delicious. Ice cream sounds so good right now. Maybe I should get some Weight Watcher's ice cream cups later. Actually, McDonald's ice cream isn't that bad for you, only 3 points, I could come back for one for a treat sometime." It's now my turn, I pull up to the window and the woman hands me my drink and then says "Would you like an ice cream cone? The girl made an extra one." I screamed "NO! GET AWAY FROM ME DEVIL WOMAN!", I screeched my tires and pulled away without my salad. Actually no, I just said no thanks and took my salad. I know she was just trying to be nice but I wanted to claw her eyes out.
That reminds me of a story. From the time I was 14-16 I worked at McDonald's. They use to give us employee cups that were just a little bigger than a dixie cup. We were allowed to have water or any soft drink we liked. What did I fill mine with when the manager wasn't watching? Chocolate shake. And I wonder how I got fat.
Anyways, yeah for the small victory yesterday of turning down FREE ice cream. The scale and I are friends again. Down 1.2 lbs from yesterday so I've lost 5.4 lbs since Monday and now just have 5 more to go. I've decided if I hit this ridiculous goal of 10.4 lbs in 2 weeks I'm getting the platinum package at Fox N Hounds. Manicure, pedicure, facial, and 60 minute massage.

Turning down ice cream? That's worth a spa package in itself. I gave myself a massage for sticking to plan and I think any pampering is a great incentive! I am down today too so we're back to being BFFs, scale and I. Must have been the over abundance of fruit I ate last night and the ab workout I did with Exercise TV. (I am officially 40-years-old.)
Hi Sarah!
Isn't blogging addicting? I know you probably hate when people say this, but I think you look great. We all secretly struggle with this issue, whether we are fat or skinny, so it is nice to read about somebody willing to openly talk about it:-) Good luck!
