Waiting for AAA to come try to jump start my car or replace the battery. Sigh.

Tuesday: 136
So I’m holding steady at 136, sort of, which is good. But the stated goal last week was to maintain 136, so goal achieved.
I’d gone below 136 last week, though, and would like to hold steady at something lower! Patience. I suspect hormones are involved right now, plus stress, so I’m not going to worry too much about [...]
Rainy Days & Mondays
Lesson learned from my Fiber Week: If I want to hit close to 25g every day, I really need to include high fiber cereal in the day’s eating plan.
Today is nuts in terms of everything that needs to be squeezed into it, from 7 AM till 9 PM, so I don’t see where I’m going to [...]
Weekend Update

Crops
My lettuce seedlings have started to come up! Yay!
On the intake front: I ate waaaay too much yesterday. It did not feel good.
Moving:
sit-ups 1×25
Pilates hundreds 100

TGIF
What a week. Or what a ten-days. In either case, I feel like I’m *surviving*.
Moving:
Walked in to work: 45 mins.
———
B (6:30 AM): TargetKashi (12 g) with soy milk; coffee w/soy milk
Sn (10:45 AM): I’m starving. 1 Hershey’s kiss with about a quarter-teaspoon of crunchy peanut butter.
L (12 PM): Boss took us to TheFancyPlace for lunch [...]
It’s Thursday
Hate to state the obvious, but it’s been the kind of week where I’ve absolutely lost track of what day it is. I kept thinking yesterday was Tuesday.
Moving: walked home from work. Used the hilly route, so walked about 20 mins, took a 10 min break, walked another 20 mins.
———–
B (6:30 AM): 2 eggo nutrigrain/whole [...]
Don’t Tell Anyone, But….
135 on the scale this AM. Oh my. Wow. I am happy.
Fiber project update: So the typical American apparently gets about 11 g of fiber per day, while the American recommendation (for women) is 25 g. Different recommendations in other parts of the world apparently, but I’m fuzzy on the details.
Anyway, so I have been [...]
Get out and VOTE
Voted before I came in to work this morning. (Yes, we can!)
Tuesday morning weigh-in: 136. So this is my new steady point, I think, and I can reasonably work from here. I can choose to try to maintain or to remove a few more pounds. I have choices to make.
For this week, my choice is to maintain the [...]
Sun’s Back
Weighed myself when I got in to work: 136. Will check a coupla more times throughout the day to see if that holds steady and then use that as a starting point while working toward a new goal…. Down to 130? That’s been a goal for several years and I don’t seem to be able to hit [...]
