Rained again! We are having friends over for a very casual meal, which I was hoping to serve on the deck. We'll see. Anyhow, I'll be picking up most of the meal from my favorite caterer, Costco.
Yesterday I blew off any chores and spent the day reading. Read The Paper Palace , cover to cover. Very satisfying and luxurious way to pass the afternoon. The novel has some truly beautiful descriptive writing. The plot was distressing at times, but I needed to keep reading to see how it was resolved.
Weight continues to be very steady. I've lost maybe 2 pounds since break started, and I'm content.
Liz, what is the protocol for Tirzeptide dosing schedule? With Wegovy, the package insert says you can postpone a dose for several days. Maybe that's a place to start trying to slow down the loss. It's a weird problem to have, but it's also a genuine concern.

OH is definitely improved!
Weight up a half pound and back temporarily into the 190s after burgers at the neighbor's house. They were good though!
We got an early walk in today as it's a little steamy out, but pretty.
Not much else to report. Have a good day!
I did! Clearly at 12 lbs. lost today!

Just wanted to mention that OH has been zipping around lately. They must have upgraded the servers.

You probably lost the .5 yesterday in that heat!

Last full day at my house before we go to DH's while the house is being sold. Seems like it came fast!
Yesterday was a beautiful beach day which I'd love to repeat today but probably too much to do here. Some last prettifying of the house and packing for the move to DH's home and our 1 week Florida trip. My friend who said he would paint the cupola is supposed to come this morning (fingers crossed) and BIL is supposed to come get his things this afternoon. DH is going to do a couple of things here, take a load to his house, then return to help pack up and prepare for the photographer tomorrow morning.
I'm actually trying to eat a little more as my larger than expected weight loss last week surprised me. I hate the idea of tracking since this is the first time I have lost weight not doing it and it felt so freeing. But I don't want to lose too much weight. Still seems weird to have to worry about that - the only other time in my life when I was feeling that way was after VSG. Even 4 years ago when I lost regain, I was tracking calories and fighting urges to eat all the time. So stopping the loss wasn't a concern.
Time to start the daily work list. It will be like a vacation being away from the house for the next few weeks. Have a mabsoot Monday.

Agreed. Violence is never the answer.

Well, the month ended at 11.5 lbs! Didn't make the 12 but will be there very soon!
I'm exhausted from the Art Fair today. It was very hot and humid today. Thank Goodness I packed a lot of beverages to stay hydrated! The heat made it hard to eat today. Protein bar for breakfast, iced coffee with protein shake in it as creamer, yogurt and cheese stick for lunch and one chicken taco with a few chips scooped in refried beans for dinner.

The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute is spread all over that area. Lots of scientists working and studying there.
