I haven’t posted in a few days, but it’s not because I’ve fallen off the wagon.  I went with my husband to his national guard’s weekend and wasn’t near a computer.  Things are going well, for the  most part.  Unfortunately, I haven’t been all that adherent to plan, but I made good choices, so I’ve still lost quite a bit of weight (five pounds, I think, but we’ll see at WI tomorrow).

I packed food to take and everything, but I unfortunately didn’t eat any of it (didn’t stay cold in the cooler, and I didn’t want to take a chance with bad chicken).  So I tried the new KFC grilled chicken, and it was pretty tasty.  I didn’t have any sides, so that all went fine.  On Saturday evening, I did eat out at Texas Roadhouse, and I had a grilled chicken caesar salad (and about six rolls, I think– ugh).  I ate that much because I didn’t have anything for lunch, and I only had a piece of low cal toast with .5 oz. of cheese and half an orange for breakfast.  So, calorie-wise, I still had a deficit.  Last night we ate at Chili’s, and I pretty much stuck to plan with fajitas (minus all the side-plate gunk that I don’t like anyhow).

Today was also a little rough.  I skipped lunch because I was so busy (this is becoming a habit that I need to break).  Dinner was with friends, but skipping the long story of how this came about, I only had a very small turkey sandwich and a small scoop of mashed potatoes (very small, and $9, so I wasn’t too happy).  I ate a granola bar at home because I’m still starved.  I know I’m going to have to eat something else tonight, but I’m going to hold off until my DH gets home from work so we can have a fun midnight snack run together.  It won’t be too diet friendly, but I worked out today, and my calories are still super low.

Tomorrow is another diet trap– a professor’s house for drinks and tapas, and I’m probably going to Indy with DH to get some free birthday stir-fry at BD’s mongolian BBQ.  Stir fry isn’t too bad for me, and I’ll just try not to eat a ton at either place.  Then Weds. is back to the program.  I don’t have any foreseeable events after that, so hopefully things will settle down a bit.

weight at home: 165.5  (my lowest was 159.5, so I’m getting closer!!)
