LC Day 25

My scale said 279 again today...I hope I can keep it at LEAST that low for my official weigh in on Monday!

I went to Outback Steakhouse for dinner last night. I started with an appetizer of medium hot wings with no breading...omg...I'm in love! I honestly could have made that my whole meal (it was 5 wings) but I had ordered a chicken dish with a side of broccoli...I ate about 1/4 of the chicken and a piece of broccoli and I was done...so guess what I'm having for lunch today! Wohoo!!! LOL

I finished up my spaghetti squash and meat sauce yesterday and am blue that I can't have it again today. It was so dang good! And...I think adding squash to my diet every day has had a very positive impact on my...err...output. Just makes "things" easier...ya know? Maybe it's time to add pumpkin for the same effect.

Oh...and last note. I worked out again today! I punched out 13 minutes on the elliptical! MOST SO FAR! I have to be careful cuz my legs get so weak it becomes dangerous for me to get off the dang machine let alone walk across the room...but man...13 minutes kicks BOOTY for me! Of course that wasn't going very fast and was on the lowest setting...so all I kept thinking was that I had lots of room for improvement once I master 30 minutes at level 1! This is very exciting for me. It's the most consistently I've exercised since I've been injured...and it's the BIGGEST improvement I've had...in SEVEN YEARS of injury!

(Just as a basis of comparison...when I started using the elliptical this summer, I could only do 4 minutes before my leg muscles gave out).
