187 if i lean a little to the left

which of course is cheating. but who cares. there's no ref in weightloss.

in exercise news, i walked my ass off taking pictures of town today. i'm going away for the weekend so they'll be posted tuesday. i'm going home to NH so it's not like vacation, but it's so different than where i live that it feels like a vacation. and there's non-stop eating...maybe it's really a cruise. we're going for my niece's birthday. so there will be alot of cake in addition to the normal food.

any visit to my sister's house is like walking through the bakery section of a supermarket. i've never seen any two people eat so much junk. and she's not fat. she thinks she's fat but no. she's had three babies and is gorgeous, i've had no babies and i'm like pooh bear. she wears the same size as i do but it's a different thing altogether. she's taller than i am and has wider hips. she presents a more trim appearance than i do, despite eating cake from dusk till dawn. but she still thinks she's fat.

so home is a dangerzone as far as food is concerned. i'm hoping to be able to do some of the cooking but it's not likely. usually it's an eat out or take away all you can eat extravaganza when i visit the family. maybe i'll put the stepper in the car...

Hang in there it's only for the weekend...enjoy your visit with your sister & family...
Talk her into going for a walk with you after eating cake.

i'm sure we'll burn it off chasing the babies. i try to just enjoy it because i'm there so rarely. i am however planning to bring my running stuff for sunday morning. atleast i can't say "well gee, i would've run but i didn't have my stuff..."

I could totally eat cake from dusk till dawn! Oh man, wouldn't it be great to be a cake tester? I'd love to get paid to eat cake all day long :)

my friends always say the best part of planning their weddings was the cake testing platter. i'll miss that if i don't get married.
