Monday Morning Weigh In
I always say that it could be worse, much much worse.....well, guess what? It's gotten there. My weight has crept up enough
that I am concerned and have to take action. I've got to start pushing more protein and less carbs. I have enough on my plate right now without having to worry about weight issues. Anywho...
Back to packing today -- My house looks like a bomb went off in it. I have paths between boxes, with 3 different box sections: Moving, Donation, Tra****'s a journey! My oldest sister, Ann (who lives in Portland OR) is coming down on the 29th and will be here until the 5th. That's going to be an enormous help. We've heard about me...how are YOU doing?? Here we go.. Jump on the HAG
, record those digits
and let us know how you are doing...Losses or gains, all results welcome here. Y'all have a great day! I HATE seeing these numbers go in the wrong direction!!! I refuse to give up or give in!
Highest weight: 252

Today's Weight: 148.8

It could be worse...MUCH, MUCH worse! And NOW it's gotten that way!!!

I saw 145.4 once last week so that made me happy. Back up to my usual for a Monday but that's ok.
Mari - I don't know how you have held it together as well as you have! The water and protein works, but you don't need me to tell you that, you already know. But protein doesn't soothe your nerves like carbs do - it's truly a battle.
I know you are coming back to Texas, but which city? Will you be in H-town or Hill Country?

Glad you are back on track - I'll be back there soon, I know. I really have been hitting the carbs a little heavy, and you're right, it's because they are soothing. I don't have anything else here to soothe or comfort me, so I have been relying on carbs, way too heavily. I've got to try to reset my way of thinking about survival for the next month and a half. I'm so glad that sis is coming in 2 weeks, then Terry is coming for a few days around the 13th. Sally is coming over to drive back with me, I think she flies in on the 26th. Too many dates for me to try to keep track of these days. It's CRAZY!!! 
I'm going to be staying with Sally for a little while. Am afraid that she's going to have to have a knee replacement. It's giving her fits and an incredible amount of pain. Of course, she won't let up on it. Has to paint the living room before I get there. WTH? Why can't she wait until I get there so I can help, especially on the ladder parts of it? She's too much!!!!

DANGIT!! I'm right there with you, Mari!! And I don't have the excuse of moving to blame my stress on. Somehow I've gained 5 pounds in 2 weeks!! 
I'm at my goal weight now, but I really like being keeping below that. In the past, this is the time I'd throw in the towel and say "F-it!!" and I'd give up. Not this time!! My goal is to lose 2 pounds this week. Water, protein, exercise, less carbs. That's my plan!!
