When you really think about it, the Super Bowl is just about food, partying, and being with those you love. It's a less formal and more fun Thanksgiving Day, right? In reality, most football fans don't give a crap who's playing because more than likely, their team (Cowboys) is not in the Super Bowl.
It's an event that everyone will be talking about around the water cooler on Monday. Everyone wants to have a story and be a part of it; kind of like New Year's Eve celebrations. Mel and I usually watch alone. Sometimes Cindy will come over to watch the game with us, if she doesn't have other plans.
Because we are back on the Weight Watchers plan, we have decided to try and eat healthier this year. Instead of typical buffalo wings which are about a 150 calories a drumstick, we've decided to modify the recipe with chicken breast tenders instead.
We will also make low fat versions of spinach artichoke dip, have a veggie tray for dipping, etc. We still plan to overindulge, but in a healthier way so there is less guilt the next day. We both had successful weigh ins this morning. I have lost over 7 pounds since we started last month.
Tomorrow if the weather holds up, I plan to ride a new trail here in town - the Salado Creek Trail. If I do, I will take pictures and post them with the overview of my ride tomorrow. Until then, GO CARDS!!!
