Guitar Hero and Dieting

Saturday evening, I went to a neat party for a friend at work's husband. It was a rather large gathering and many of them are gamers like myself. It was quite a good time, and they had a nice BBQ grill and lots of food and snacks....which I happily resisted! I limited myself to a bottle of hard cider and a burger and hotdog. Not too bad.

So later on, they break out the Guitar Hero on their entertainment system. I'd always seen the game, but hadn't had the opportunity to play it. Many of them were drunk and having quite a blast on it and I tried it too and it was super fun! So Sunday, I went out and got the game with a guitar controller and was playing some of the day. I now have another horribly nerdy hobby! Oh no!

As for my dieting, I've been running a lot the past few days. I've been running a full mile, follower by ten minutes of cooldown walking on an incline. I checked our scales at work today and I'm down 5 pounds! And that's just one week! I'm so excited about losing weight and eating right. This is going to be the best few months ever and I'll finally get rid of this excess baggage!

Hooray! You have always been my Guitar Heroine, sweetie!

And I'm SO proud of you for resisting the temptation of yummy food this weekend! I fear I wasn't so disciplined at Ye Olde Ren Faire!

Anyway, I cannot wait to see you kick major metal ass!!!

Glad to know the diet works for someone other than just me :) I'm sure the next time I see you, I probably won't even recognize you!
