Weekly Weigh In
Last Week: 215
Today: 218
It's not like I don't know why...just seem to be stuck on the merry-go-round of stress, bad (but quick/easy) food choices, and far too many things to do trying to keep the family together in the midst of crisis to be able to get it together and exercise. I guess at least the fact that I'm aware of what's going on and holding in a pretty narrow 5 pound range over the last month is a small victory.
Keep up the great work, everyone!

I'm SO grateful! I decided since I cannot swim (pool is down until mid-summer), I must walk outside, which I've been doing daily. It's just around the double block, but it's helping. I'm also using my daughter's Gazelle, as it's easier on my knees. I can do 100 repetitions at one time.
I'm rooting for you, Amy.
Blessings,

Eek-up again to 150.8.
Now here comes the true extent of my mental illness-I'm glad-it's a relief to be at the top of my range and know I need to cut back and watch what I eat. I'm just more comfortable in that mode.
But, by having a range, I'm not paniced either. My plan at this point is to get back down to the lower end of my range by the Memorial Day (is that in May?) because I don't want to be on the high end for vacation. I enjoy my wine on the porch with family too much....LOL.
The gluten free thing is going well-probably part of the gain is due to my allowing myself whatever and however much I want, as long as there was no gluten in it. Kicking an allergen is no fun, but the worst is over, and I'm ready to hit the protein. In fact, day before yesterday I started craving (and eating) tuna-could my body really know what it needs now?
Disclaimer: if the scale doesn't start DOWN next week, I reserve the right to panic.
