operation: get hott: the scale does not lie...unfortunately

back at frustration station. was up 2.8 at today's weigh-in. UGH.

i know that i cannot be mad; i was the one who did not eat well this week. i ran out of my weekly 49 extra points on like, tuesday...which means the beer, nachos, popcorn, candy and donut (ok, it might have been donutS...) that i ate yesterday was definitely NOT the wisest move before a weigh-in.

i was telling (ok, ok, lamenting...) to jacob that i think i have been going through a phase where i just do not want to say "no" anymore. which is ridiculous! i know it is not about saying no but about figuring out how to have what you want in an appropriate portion.

i wanted to avoid the weigh-in this morning but know that i needed to see the number and have it recorded in order to move forward. i had my 26 points today and nothing extra. i just need to go back to the basics.

on a more positive note, i was able to go to a twins game last night with meg and dave - first one for me this season. but they lost. of course. : )

today was also the home opener for gopher football!!!! it was so much fun to actually see them WIN. and i do NOT care that it was against new hampshire. a win is a win is a win. and we take all the wins we can get. i posted a bunch of photos on facebook today and did my best at being "cool" by finally downloading instagram. some of the shots i took with it actually turned out well! here are some of others.

sitting in traffic on university. i told him to look "happy."

we had heard that hardly any student tickets had been sold...you can see close at the top that there were a LOT of empty seats in the upper student section.
