One more pound

So WW is releasing this new thing ActiveLink.  It is something you wear all day and it tracks your overall activity and converts it into WW points.  It sounds pretty interesting.  It then gives you a baseline and challenges to improve advance excel in the activity area.  I guess it is like the FitBit thing.  So at work they have challenged us to lose 4 pounds in 8 weeks to Thanksgiving and they will buy us each one of them.  I was not aware of this when I ate my way through MS.  So I got the last of those pounds off.  And now I just need to get one more pound down for the AL challenge.
The final weigh in is Tuesday morning.  I am intently focused on this.  I just dont know that one pound is going to drop in 3 days. 

I didnt do it much good yesterday at the Thanksgiving luncheon.  It was supposedly healthy stuff but let's be honest... canned green beans cooked however is not the same as steamed fresh green beans or frozen green beans...  and the sweet potatoes - not sure what they were mashed with but pretty sure that was butter I tasted...  the cranberry relish was OK but probably more sugar than expected... and then there was dessert :)  To top it all off I had more wine after work than I needed as well.

SOooooo - this morning I got up and tried to run that out of my system.  I thought I'd run for an hour.  But after 30 minutes I had done the circuit and reverse around the neighborhood and was sufficiently cold.  So that was that.  Today we are walking around the mall doing some shopping... I would like to think that will kill some calories as well BUT I know in there will be some sort of unhealthy food...

and on that note - i need to get in the shower so i am not late
