Back in the 50s...

We had a nice time at La Paloma. I did break down and have one Mango Margarita. I ate some chips and salsa but kept it to a minimum.  I really had a hankering for a couple of Corona's but I resisted them. I had the Crab Tostada and it was fab as usual. I am one of those people who gets the same thing at a particular restaurant. When I find something I like I stick to it. Some of my "faves" have gone by the wayside when I realized how many calories were in them. Thank goodness they have nutrition information so we can make better choices when eating out.

I got on the scale this morning and it said 258 which is down 2 lbs. from last week! Yay!  My lowest on this journey was 253 so I am 5 lbs. away from my lowest which is encouraging. It seems like I stayed the same forever but it goes to show you that you have to stick with it (for life!) because it will eventually start moving again.











Tonight, I am hoping to go to Zumba again. The nice ladies I met on Saturday encouraged me to come on Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. too. They were sporting belly dancing skirts so I think I will have to bring mine! That way I can jingle jangle when I wiggle my hips. Dave will make dinner so I can grab a bite before I go. I don't want a repeat of Saturday with the low blood sugar. Until next time...

  8. Way to go Miss Katie! That's awesome weigh in and outlook.

    I think it rocks that you have such a good time shaking it like a salt shaker at your Zumba class. I would like to give them a try sometime. I use to love salsa & merengue, it looks very similar!

    6 more lbs to and you will conquer a new low!
