Saturday, May 10 2008 - speed racer/ chasing rabbits/taking scales
View MOUGHI's food & exercise for this day
Got up early to got to the early feature today at the I-Max to see Speed Racer and was not disappointed. It was everything a Speed Racer movie should be. There was action, kid humor, kid drama, and of course Speed coming through in the end to win the big race. You don't have to be a Speed Racer fan of old to enjoy this flick, but it did bring back memories of my brother an I sharing the TV moments together. I took some carrot sticks to munch on to keep myself occupied as I watched the bad guys try to foil Speeds chances to win the Grand Prix. Thankfully, I resisted the popcorn smell.

Then, we went to my husband's favorite Mediterranean place where I took my scale. OK, so I was prepared this time. I just had to know if I was right about this place serving double portions. I was. I had to even ask them not to put as much food on my plate as they were going to. They are notorious about piling the food on the plates to were you have double the amount a normal person needs. I also found out everything has oil on or in it, so no telling how much fat is in the food. This could be healthy food if it was not for the oli amount !@!!%!!@^@^@^@@!!!! I got rice, a cabbage salad, and a stuffed squash that had rice and meat in it and probably a little goat cheese in it. They also gave me some Dolmas which I only ate one of. I basically ate half of my plate and saved the rest for dinner to night. I do think I will order that travel scale since the scale at the rest. really helped. I do go out occasionally and will be going out of town soon. This was the first time I went to this place and didn't have to guess my carbs because I had the scale. This is why I like taking the scale. It's really for my diabetes.
The picture is another one of my little dog Xena who my daughter named you guessed it, after the Warrior Princess. It was one of her fav shows at the time. I wanted to name her Rogue as in the X-man so we would have Gambit and Rogue, but Xena was tumbling and , well looked like a Princess. After the way she chased that rabbit last night, I say she was a warrior princess all right.

Thanks for the advice, stretching is always good for you. I just wanted you to know that I am going to be fine, and my leg barely hurts today. I am going to take it easy for a while though.
That is a smart idea to bring your scale with you. Maybe I should start doing that....
