I am way late with my updates
The weekend in Watertown was lots of fun, except for the spending too much money part. Got to explore some new stores and ended up out-smarting myself on one purchase. Finally discovered the New York State Zoo and got some cool pics which will be uploaded as soon as I find the USB cable to transfer the photos from my camera to the computer.
As for the weight thing... on October 3, after my return from Watertown after eating nothing but frozen prepared meals and restaurant food my weight increased by 0.8 pounds to bring the total back to 29 even. This past Wednesday, October 10 after being back home for 10 days my weight was down by 0.4 for the week and a total of 29.4 pounds. I need to get back to my routine of walking the dog everyday.
I know it is easy to want to stay indoors when it is wet and cold outside but the blubber won't go away on it's own. Wish me luck!
Stay tuned for the outsmarted story and the zoo pics.

I've been plagarized
So there I was, minding my own business when I decided last Wednesday to start a thread on www.racingstalkers.com about these 100 calorie packs of snack food you can now buy. I don't think I commented on the quality or flavour. Most of my comments were about the lame name and it's french translation. In English, the product is called "Thinsations" and in French it's even worse "Mince Alors!" And you will also notice the French name gets an exclamation point.
I was kind of disappointed that no one responded but on Saturday while I was enjoying a week late Victoria Day weekend, I go online to the homepage of my favourite video blogger, the lovely and talented Kate Bilo and what is she talking about? 100 calorie packs of snack foods. Talk about borrowing a great idea. I think I should get a writing credit and 50% of the royalties.
Of course, after watching her blog about my topic I am now jealous. Mainly because she has a lot more options in these 100 calories products. All I've seen on the shelves of my small town A&P and Walmart stores has been Nabisco mostly. Oreos, Chips Ahoys, graham crackers, and shortbread cookies. I think I have also seen Sun chips and Doritos. Maybe I just haven't been looking hard enough? Maybe it is time for me to cross the border and visit my favourite grocery store in Watertown NY. Or better yet, Miss Bilo should send me some as the first payment on the piles of money she earns on all these video blogs.
