20 min on bike today, and full workout on the Bowflex.

I went to the Elders Quorum game night. It was interesting because when I first walked in I didn't recognize anyone at all. So I thought I was maybe at the wrong house, but they seemed very welcoming so I figured if it wasn't my quorum, at least they were playing games.

It turned out it was my group, I am bad with faces, fortunately they recognized me so all was well, except that the only 'snacks' they had there were brownies cookies, and chips. I must always remember to bring my own snacks to these events. I was planning on it, but I didn't get around tomakeing them.

So everyone kept talking about how great these home made brownies were, the kids were loading up on them and they did look really good. However I avoided them completed, no home made brownies, no home made cookies, nothing. Though I had foolishly not eaten enough before I got there so I had a little Sunny D at one point just to raise my flagging blood sugar, but that was all.

Oh and I lost playing Blurt, but won soundly playing Porto Rico.

My weight this morning, was 219! This is a significant number, because 220 has long seemed like an impenetrable barrier. whenever I get close to it I seem to go crazy with the eating and quickly gain a few pounds again. It's very self destructive and so i am doubly proud of myself that I didn't have any brownies tonight.

When I lost 45 pounds a year and a half ago, I ended up at 216 as my lowest point. I have been hovering between 220 and 226 for the last year. The next milestone will be 216, then I will be heading into numbers that I have not seen since my late 20's. Or whenever it was that I started gaining all this weight.

weight this morning: 219
