The Day After
So today’s the first day after a real slip-off-the-wagon for me. I’ve built in ‘treats and cheats’ earlier in this project, like hot dogs at D’s, but last night was the first time I fell into that mindless munching. I felt sick afterwards, both physically and mentally. Didn’t even want to look to see what [...]

Forgot to pack a lunch today. Rats. Might go to lunch with the BF, depending on when he gets through with his meetings, so will think about something healthy to order if we do that or something healthy to pick up if I end up eating at my desk…..
TOM’s here. Cramps. Aleve.
AM Moving:
bicep curls: 3×12 [...]
“Only Taste and See”
Decided I need to stop just titling these entries with the day of the week….
From Psalm 34 (v. 8): “How good Yahweh is — only taste and see!”
Isn’t that marvelous? A real call to appreciate the gift of taste, such a valued sense that it can be associated with an appreciation of God’s goodness!
Today’s digiscale [...]
New Week
Goal for this week is to try to start removing pounds again. Steady is not bad, and I know I have to be patient as my body adjusts, but am ready for some change in the scale.
According to the digiscale: 143.+
AM Moving:
3×12 bicep curls (5′)
3×12 rows (5′)
1 mile on the elliptical
3×8 lat pulldowns (bottom 4 [...]
The Weekend
Saturday
Definitely not feeling motivated these days. I’ve somehow lost my spark.
Sigh.
B: English muffin w/scrambled egg and cottage cheese, lofat swiss melted on it, Trader Joe salsa on that. A breakfast sandwich. Yum. Coffee w/soy milk. Orange juice.
Sn: raisin/walnut bread toast
Really lost track after this. Went to Mullaney’s to celebrate DS’ birthday: Guiness, teeny little reuben [...]
TGIF
Put myself on the home scale this morning. That thing does not budge. Two weeks and the pointer is in the same place.

Thursday
AM moving: lower body work: 25 squats, 25 toe raises w/weights, 25 toe raises with bent knees. Have to say I did NOT want to do it this morning. Just am feeling tired and a little weepy. But I did it and am glad for it.
B (6:30 AM): warm granola; coffee w/soy milk
L (12 PM): lean cuisine pizza; [...]

Tuesday: Midpoint Weigh-In
So much for sun and blue sky. V. dark and rainy, calling for floods.
Today’s the midpoint weigh-in. I don’t think I’m nervous about this. I’m lighter, so no matter what the scale says, I’m pleased. I would be disappointed if it’s less than 6 pounds, I guess, though I should be happy with whatever it [...]
