Upkeep - 170

Something new is happening to my body since Holly. I lose and gain really fast. Yesterday, at my party, I was far from good.

Party:

- Three margaritas
- One Corona beer
- Chips, Salsa and Guacamole
- 1 1/2 bar burgers (little burgers on rolls instead of buns
- 1 1/2 cups of homemade french fries
- 1 piece of Mississippi Mud Pie

From that, I gained three pounds. I'm sure most of it is weight of food. But the margaritas were on the rocks and I drank the whole beer. That's almost 800 calories there alone. And it wasn't a dancing party. It was a sit down conversational party. So I did nothing active to work off the calories. Blah...

I cleaned all day, though. That's worth a little something. But I find it amazing that my body can take on (and probably lose by Wednesday) so much weight. I drank water throughout the day (about 40 oz). It's possible the sodium in the chips and drinks made me retain water. Who knows? I just find it very interesting.

The party was ok. It was myself, hubby and six other people. Small get together, really. I do live 47 miles from where I work. I think J and B drove about 60 miles to come over. That's a lot to ask. I think as long as my friends are limited to work friends, we will be entertaining very little. Sadly...

Well, I need to get my birth control patch and get my day rolling. I did some cleaning up from the party yesterday. But more needs to be done. For once, our house looks presentable! Yay! I aim to keep it that way. Less work for upkeep...

Weight: 170
