7-12-10 Monday (Treasure Hunt – Beyond The Crown)

I went to Walmart again.  I picked out a cereal for Jim the last time and turns out he doesn’t like it.  I returned it.  I told them it tasted like cardboard with honey.  They gave me a refund.  Why not?  I bought a different healthy cereal for Jim to try.

I went to my new dentist today for a cleaning.  It went fine.  Gross – even though I flossed twice today she “found” popcorn.  She said popcorn loves to hide sometimes for days.  She found it twice under a lip or something from a crown.  I’m glad I could share that with you.

In other exciting news, Jim and I went to the gym today.  I did core (abs) exercises while I waited for him to get there.  After he changed we hit the stair climber machine for 45 minutes.  Grueling.    We’ve decided to go 3 times a week.  Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  Since we can’t be motivated with 5 days a week, I suggested 3 for now.  

Here’s how my food choices broke down.  For some reason I ate a salad at like 10:30 this morning.  I was just in the mood for it.  I didn’t have enough ultra low cal balsamic vinaigrette so I used a light dressing I had available.  3 points for that sucks.  At lunch I ate what I’d normally have eaten for breakfast.  Later as a snack I had popcorn.  For dinner I grilled some chicken, paired it with fresh broccoli and brown rice with salsa.  Yum.  Dessert was a delicious fruit cocktail served on sugar free angel food cake and topped with a Coolwhip type topping.  Yum.  Jim later had cereal and I just had to have some too.  I skipped the milk and ate it like a snack.  It’s a real high fiber cereal that’s low in points and very tasty AND included a mail in rebate form to get the cereal for free!    

It’s OK to drink alcohol on the streets here.  We took another bus tour of this awesome city.  More characters.  More fun photos!  Vampires!  Check it out here.
