Mother’s Day Aftermath

A.M. weigh-in: 157.4

Had a great day with my mom and sis yesterday. And then last evening with the kids. I blogged about it with pictures HERE. If you want to skip straight to my review of Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, click HERE.

Today is my day to get things finished up at work. Tomorrow I have the knee MRI follow-up appointment and will FINALLY get to find out what the plan is from here on out. I’m anxious to get that over and done with. It’s seriously cramping my style!

Tomorrow afternoon, we leave for Anaheim. My mom and I talked my sister into coming with! We are so excited - we’ll be driving to Roseville to pick her up on our way down. When we’re at Disneyland on Wednesday, one of my childhood best friends who now lives in Temecula will be coming up to meet us in the afternoon. It’s going to be one very busy day. Then we’re driving back that night after Disney closes at 8pm. Talk about a whirlwind trip - we’ll be gone about 36 hours. Yikes! I think I’m too old to do this! At least we’ll have plenty of drivers to take shifts. It’s only about 7 hours away, not horrible.

Tom Hanks is on Good Morning America right now. Watching him sitting in the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile singing “Oh I wish I were an Oscar Meyer Weiner” - that just totally made my day!!

I’m determined not to eat my way through SoCal again! It won’t help that my mom and sis will TOTALLY eat their way through SoCal - its all they talked about yesterday at lunch! Cream cheese filled pretzels and churros were mentioned repeatedly. I better bring my sweat pants so I’ll have something I can fit into on the way home!

UPDATE 7:49 PM

The worst thing I did today was eat three Slim-a-bear 100 calorie ice cream bars. Not in a row. Like one at 11, a second at 2 and then a third one at 4:30. Still, 300 calories for ice cream bars in a day - not the worst thing I’ve ever done. Heck, not even the worst thing I’ve done this weekend, not by far! I had a Healthy Choice bowl - a cajun style thing with chicken and shrimp. And then for dinner a Lean Cuisine panini. A banana and 1 packet of sugar-free Quaker oatmeal. That’s a damn good day… now if I can just keep from noshing any more today. Tomorrow I am so looking forward to… and dreading. I just know I’m going to eat and eat and eat… especially since knowing my mom, we’re going to hit at LEAST 3 In-n-Out Burgers on this trip!! Animal style fries… ooooooohhhh, my mouth’s watering just THINKING about them! And they are the worst - like 1000s of calories. THOUSANDS! Heaven help me!
