What a day!!! Was scheduled to meet with a family for a photo shoot at 7:30 am. Got up at 6:30 (I voted with my conscious not to get up early to walk). Checked in with my good buddy, Mr. Scales – he reported minor loss (probably water – but I will take it). Today’s morning weight was 224.6. Really need to come up with a new name for Mr. Scales. I seem to be getting very personal with him. I mean, I think he sees me naked more than my husband.

My 7:30 am appointment did not show until 8:45 😦 This did allow plenty of time to hydrate and eat my staple breakfast – 2 boiled eggs.

My friends and clients had decided that we should go into Washington DC to the US National Arboretum. It is a beautiful location for photography. Great gardens, columns, and more gardens. Hard to believe something so beautiful and peaceful is in the middle of this overcrowded, hustling, noisy city. I’m surprised at the number of people who live here that do not know it exists! If you are in town, check it out!

Arrived back at home just in time for the Washington Redskins and Philadelphia Eagles game. This is a game, I never enjoy. I have a hard time rooting for either team. Today I voted for the Eagles….mainly because I hate Mondays having to listen to Hail to the Redskins. Besides the game, this is what was waiting for me when I walked on the door. I probably over ate the low carb food to keep from digging into those wings and onion rings my husband made. I had a small plate of wings that had no breading and bell peppers and queso. My friend, Mr. Scales may not have positive numbers for me tomorrow, but I at least I feel confident that I did not over indulge in carbs – so I’m a winner. Next Sunday’s goal – track my food for calorie intake as well as carbs. I can do this.
