The weekend didn't get any bettter

So the weekend didn't get any better for us.  Still the ugly, maybe even the uglier.  Saturday we had Jim, his sister and her husband over to celebrate her birthday which is today actually.

We made burgers for dinner.  Which aren't too bad I guess but then added bacon to them.  1 1/2 slices to mine.  And throughout the night had Doritos, Sun Chips and brownies.  I also had a little debbie's s'more.  No drinking this time so at least there weren't extra bad for us calories.  We also went to see Hungry Games and although planned on having popcorn and a soda we ended up not doing so.  So at least we didn't make it worse that way either.

Sunday wasn't too bad.  I mowed the lawn for the 1st time this year and although temp wise it was only around 55 or so I still got my sweat on because it was nice and sunny.  We had hot dogs & chips and another brownie for lunch.  But since I poured out the chips onto my plate rather than eating them straight out the bag I really didn't have that many.  So that meal was 1/2 and 1/2.

For dinner we had a Jack Daniel's brisket (one of the kind you heat up in the microwave), corn and green beans with a dinner roll and a half.  So that wasn't too bad of a dinner either.

Actually, now that I'm looking back on everything it wasn't as ugly as I thought.  Saturday night was ugly, that goes without saying, but we had baked chicken and tator tots for lunch which are around 500 calories total, which isn't a bad meal really.  I had done some shopping earlier in the morning so got a bit of exercise there while walking around the store and bending and lifting items.  And I also vacuumed the basement and kitchen and straightened the kitchen which got a sweat going.  So, yeah, not near as ugly as I first thought.

Tonight I will be getting back on the elliptical and/or treadmill.  HDT has to go in at 10 so not sure if he'll do anything or not.
