friday
130.2
Is there some reason why hot flashes aren’t burning off 50 pounds a week?
But hey, I’ll take what I got. It’s progress in the right direction.
B (7 AM): coffee w/1% milk; whole wheat English muffin with fig spread
Sn: coffee with dollop of half-and-half
Sn (11 AM): lofat coffee yogurt w/small dark choc candy scarfed [...]
wednesday & thursday
Still at that 131.8 mark. Ugh ugh ugh.
Not remembering altogether what I ate. Breakfasts were fine: wed was whole wheat english muffin with some peanut butter; yesterday was a wolfed down bowl of cereal (fiber one) before the dentist.
L on Wednesday was a meatball sandwich. L yesterday, post-dentist, was a cheeseburger, couple of french fries, [...]
changing weather
It’s a wonder we’re not all sick as can be. The weather’s veering between unseasonably cold to unseasonably warm — mixed with lots of wind and damp.
Moving:
tricep raises behind head (don’t do this — forgot about it messing up elbows) 3×10 (8′)
walked IN to work — 45 mins

B (7 AM): coffee w/1% milk; lofat pom [...]
monday, monday
131.8
What’s worse is that I didn’t feel panicky — just ‘oh.’
Maybe right now just focusing on maintenance — in a healthy and intentional way — is what I can do. Come January, I can take on the project of removing some more pounds, but right now there are a lot of other projects to manage [...]
Friday
So how am I doing with the plan to focus on the basics? Depends which half of the glass I look at.
I am definitely paying more attention, but not always succeeding.
Bitter cold today, so any kind of movement is a challenge for these lungs. This is very hard, and I do not want to dwell [...]

Catchin’ Up
Monday was a migraine day at home, so essentially a carb fest. Nuff said. I did manage to do some chicken-wing lifts with 5′ weights.
Tuesday: no weights, no cardio.
B: lofat yogurt, coffee w/1% milk
Sn: string cheese
L: half a turkey rachel, water
S: divied in two: cup of cocoa and red wine at the U club, then [...]
weekend
I’m not going to set up expectations for myself to do much tracking on the weekends, because I need to be thinking about doing things NOT on the computer, but FWIW:
moving:
tricep kickbacks: 3×10 (8′)
cardio: plan to walk the dog but not get too crazy about it (cold out there and my I do NOT want [...]
tgifff
I’m pretty much pooped out by Wednesday, and yet there’s more week left. Hmm.

bicep hammer pumps: 3×12 (8′)
chicken wing deadlifts: 3×10 (8′)
probably no cardio today

S: plan is leftover salmon/scallops from last night. [...]
