What are you eating/doing today (Saturday)

This morning I've officially lost more than 50 lbs. I feel like I look good and my body feels amazing - I want to get out and move it! So the menu today includes activity and food and lots of love and gratitude!

Bacon and a little scrambled egg

Burrito or something for lunch

Ham and acalloped potatoes and carrots for supper

Tobogganing with my sons

Walking with my dogs

Getting my skates sharpened

Playing Monopoly

Working on my thesis. 

I was going to start my better eating today but my husband made me breakfast this morning so will have to start after the large meal I just had. I had gained a few pounds over Christmas but seemed to be able to lose it right away. Today I am up 6 pounds and am not happy about it. SO will go for a long walk this morning. It is not just the distance but the boots I bought for walking last year each weigh about 5 lbs. Like wearing weights on your feet. I have also been drinking too  much so detox starts today.

Welcome home, Barb!  Sounds like t'is the season to regain. I'm back up to 180 lbs, 4 pounds above my lowest weight so far.  Sigh.  I guess maybe I just have to suck it up and set a second goal for real and try to reach it.  Maybe 165.  That's only 15 lbs less than what I am now, so it's doable.  Good luck to everyone who is struggling with this. 

Had a nice night last night with a couple of friends, but when we got home, my husband and I got into an argument, which sucked.  We haven't talked since.  We don't normally argue to the point where we don't talk to each other afterwards - we're usually pretty tight.  I'm hoping I can channel my unhappiness about this into taking a walk to the library and picking up the books I have on hold rather than eating crap today. :( 

I think I'm going to have a mostly lazy day.  A walk to the library, which is a subway station away so a nice 40 minute walk there and back, then I'm going to read the books.  At least when I read books I don't generally EAT. :)  I'll probably also make up a couple of batches of chicken spread since I have chicken in the fridge that needs to be used today.

1 YEAR POST-RNY

Enjoy your day, everyone!

I'm sorry to hear that you and your husband had an argument.  I hope you can resolve it soon.  I also hate fighting with my HB - the distance after an argument is brutal.
