Hope your Mrs. heals up soon. For her sake I hope it was not her "dominant" hand.
Thanks to everyone who posts here.
Yesterday I weighed 180.
Normally Holdays do not mess up my food, but I struggled last night to not eat bad Holiday food.
Merry Christmas

On leave until the 8th! It is much easier to not eat when I am at work, but I get to do all the cooking for the next couple of weeks as the Mrs. recovers from some major hand surgery (cmc arthroplasty). So I can make some healthy high protein meals. Pork and home made kraut yesterday, today making chop suey. I'll probably be *****ing abou****er weight from the salt next week :-)
Hope all have a great Christmas!

I was afraid I might have to go AWOL this week, as I swelled up to 276 1/2 during the week, but dropped back down to 274, so down a pound from the last two weeks. The bad food has been in abundance, so I am happy to be where I am at.

It is what it is.
Week slow work wise. Lots of rain. Managed to pretty well empty my "**** to do box" tying up some lose ends for the year.
As is the tradition in our family we do Christmas on Christmas Eve. It's something my Dad got us to doing after brother and I both knew the gig was up. Motivation was so that he could sleep late Christmas morning!
Enjoy your Christmas and don't over do it at the dinner table!
Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!
198...I'll take that any day!! Back to more activities...Pruning, mowing, running errands. I need to enjoy tortilla chips at night, but not go hog wild on them. Brian

I sort of flatlined, at least from Sunday to Sunday. I was just a hair under 275 today, so essentially unchanged from last week. I did dip down as low as 272 1/2, so I expect this is just part of my normal fluctuation. Over the next couple of days I anticipate getting back down there again.
There are Christmas goodies in abundance everywhere. I am indulging just a bit, but keeping a tight rein on it. If I can get through to January without seeing any real gain, I will be happy.
It is exceedingly cold here right now, unseasonably so, so exercise has been curtailed. We shall see how that affects things.

I was 195 yesterday. I ate mindfully, and even shoveled some snow. Only to be damned this morning on the scale :-)
Looking forward to over two weeks off (use or lose time) and getting some inside things done. Hope I can keep my hand to mouth disease in control.
Good week to all!

Oops. Numbers going up. Resembles credit card balances. Only place I know where the numbers are going lower are in the checking account and my wallet!
Work week last week - literally went to the dogs. Hoarder of sorts on 20 day vacation at Dallas VA medical center. Had enough sense to wear a dirty uniform and had old work boots on instead of regular black tactical boots. Heaven only knows what all I was walking on in the dark! 11 dogs in house at one point. Roomie took his to another location, two dead and other eight were seized. Can't have a court hearing to determine what happens to the dogs till guy is out of the VA! Animal Control 101: No such thing as a "bad" animal. It is "bad" owners! Got home left boots in garage, dropped everything in utility room and through clothes in wash and me in shower.
Go do your thing!

Better week for eating, but I still have a long way to go. Ate mindfully but made a couple bad choices. Water was a little variable with a couple travel days. I did well on my days at home. Exercise continues to improve.
This is a winding down week for me this year. Most of the week will be wrapping up 2017 and preparing for vacation. Speaking of which, I won't be back here till New Years Eve. There's been a lot of negotiating going on about food over the holiday's. There'll be some good choices, along with some bad ones. I need to stay mindful.
The lions game last night was fun. Can't stand the color rush uni's, but that's just me. Too bad they weren't able to play like that for more games this year. I guess there's an outside chance they make the playoffs, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
Have a great week and a joyous holiday season. Please have a great time, but please be safe as well.
Merry Christmas
