Taking a double take!!

On Sunday we had a Fathers Day BBQ.  I made a tossed salad and watermelon for it.  They had sausage patties, Hot dogs, hamburgers, and Johnsonville's then the normal mayo filled salads a such.  oh and Salt potatoes my favorite but soaked in butter.

As we were getting ready to eat I figure I would have a burger, my tossed salad and some corn.  I noticed that packaging for the meats by the grill.  Boy did I do a double take.  I figured the burger would be best choice, I was shocked to pick up the package and read that one burger is 380 calories!! WHAT.  The Johnsonville was 240 and the sausage was 170.  I know the hot dog was less but what is really in a hot dog?

Who knew the sausage would be a better choice?  Who knew I would have been off by 110 calories had I not read the package.

My second double take of the day was when I added up all that I ate – one sitting 800 calories.  Yeah so much for self control! Darn those 4 salt potatoes and my Nana’s famous mac salad. 

Today was WI day.  I was down another 1.6!! I am so excited to be at 78.2 pounds lost!  I missed being a Overweight BMI by .2!  I should of pee more!!

Today was also measurement day at bootcamp! I had great numbers.

Did you take a double take of those numbers?  I did! My trainer actually did the waist 2 times!!!  I knew it was going to be good because Sunday a pair of my new shorts were already too big on me.  I am hope to go shopping this weekend…I can not wait to try that next size down!
