278.5 ---> 277.0

Ok, so yesterday I was 278.5 and this morning 277.0.
Yesterday morning I started off the day with some pumpkin oatmeal and a cup of coffee with splenda and ff creamer-vanilla caramel. Pretty tasty. I did munch on some of those cookies that I made Friday night- the recipe made about 22 cookies and I think as of this morning there are 10ish left-yeah, they're good.
After I came home from grocery shopping (which I was pretty pleased that I did not buy anything I was tempted by, with the exception of chocolate chips, 30 cc on top of pb toast is pretty tasty and not too many points, and yes I count out 30 of them) I made some greek salad with lentils. This was the first time I've ever tried lentils and they were pretty tasty ( I think that might be my word of the day since I've used it a dozen times today) . I took a cup of dried lentils with enough water to cover them plus 2 inches and 2 bay leaves. (bring up to boil then turn to simmer and partially cover-totally adapted this from someone's recipe I saw on the ww site- I cooked them for about 20 minutes then drained them and rinsed in cold water to cool them off a little so they were just warm. I chopped up an english cucumber, a bunch of small tomatoes, 2 heads of romaine lettuce and some left over feta cheese I had, probably about 4 ounces, threw in the lentils and mixed everything together with some homemade dressing (balsamic vinegar, evoo and dried spices). It was very yummy, I even threw some black olives on hubby's portion (I am not a fan) and he said it was good. So hooray for lentils!
For dinner we ordered Domino's, like the other day, but this time I didn't beat myself up about what I ate (a whole large salad and some buffalo chicken pizza- seriously I think it's my favorite, chicken, onions, buffalo sauce and cheese, simple and great). I was not expecting to loose this morning, but I was super excited that I did. I did not get in all my water yesterday which I was disappointed in myself for, but today is a brand new day and I will do better today.
Today is a cleaning day, laundry, vacuuming, clean sheets and more packing/purging. I will be ready for this move in February!
