Yeah, it was that kind of day. I didn't eat at home at all. I didn't go hog wild, but didn't eat like a dieter, either. That's okay, a bit of a cheat will happen now and then. I'm in this for the long run, and I'll be back on the wagon tomorrow.

It was a spending day as well.

I went to the bakery outlet and spent $7 for bread, buns, and bagels. I bought gas for $23. The dentist cost $176 after my senior discount. (That was for an oral evaluation, cleaning, and fluoride treatment.) Lunch with my friend was $25. I paid her share, because she has so often helped me with cat care and rides in the past. Under duress I let her pay the tip. A trip to Goodwill cost $19, all for gift items. (And I got a $5 rewards coupon for future shopping). Finally, I stopped at the grocery store and spent $19 for cat treats, dishwasher detergent, kitty litter, and low-fat cream cheese. I had $1.50 in coupons and everything was on sale.

I also got the $15K from the credit union, which I will deposit at Chase tomorrow, and I got the direct deposit from the College changed to Chase. So I've almost completed everything that had to be done to earn the $500 bonus.

It felt like a busy day. Of course, I drove 45 miles as well, which I'm not used to any more!

Now I'm ready to put my feet up and rest!

    Mmm ... Shamrock Shake ... that's worth a bit of a splurge. Smile

    CB - it sounds like you had a nice day though. Can you tell me how you are calculating your calories? LoseIt app? Weightwatchers.com? I'd like to do my own eating list for the day and calculate the calories.

    I am just Googling. I usually get taken to CalorieKing.
