Day Eight - First Weigh - In

First weigh-in today and I am down 10.5 pounds. Pretty good for one week, but I was hoping to be done a little more today. It's alright, I just need to work a little harder for next week.

And to be honest, I ended up not doing so good last night. I was up to 1,200 calories when I went to my grandfather's house. I usually cook for him or bring food on Thursday evenings. I made him spaghetti with meatballs. He ate a small plate, and I finished it all up. With a conservative estimate, it was probably 800 calories. And then I had my typical sugar free, low calorie ice cream-like bar before I went to bed. So that was about 2,100 calories for the day.

Back on the wagon today. Every Friday during lent my mother & I go to a different fish fry, so I have one more to go to today. I will have to get the baked fish. And mixed vegetables. And nothing deep fried. And no home-made, twice baked macaroni and cheese with extra cheese! Oh, God no, none of that!

I hope I am not doomed to failure.
