Week 37: April 19-25, 2011

This week I:
– Lost 4.4 lbs (267.8)
– Drank all my water everyday(66oz/day).
– Didn’t go to the farmer’s market (Hadn’t used up last week’s stuff).
– New recipe this week: Fennel and Shallots with Pesto

I still need to:
– Finish cleaning out the fridge(I need F’s help. I tried to pull it out to clean it and it’s too heavy)
– Clean the kitchen floor
– Move SCA stuff to the trailer (I did box it up.. but it hasn’t made it to the trailer yet)

Need to make this next week:
– Lentil stew
– Chicken Coconut Curry
– Something with venison

Surprising loss this morning. Not that I’ve been “bad” but I haven’t been eactly stellar “good”. I usually expect a drop or gain of about 0.5 per day.. so this morning’s drop of ~ 2 lbs from yesterday is surprising. In fact I jumped on/off the scale about 5 times double checking it.

C25K is going well. I’m still in week 4 but it’s feeling a bit easier.

Last weekend, when cleaning up the garage I found the last box of “too-small-for-me” clothes. These where boxed up in March of 2006 and tucked into the garage with the understanding that I intended to lose weight and I’d need the clothes then. Some of them are still too small.. but some of them aren’t. It’s like shopping at home in boxes that only contain clothes that I like. Happily I think I now have 1-2 more sizes of jeans to shrink into.

I’m down to the low end of size 24 jeans. I stopped by a store and tried on some 22s. They almost fit.. but they were all stretch so I didn’t buy any. I’m very pleased about that.

I -feel- lighter. It’s a good thing.
