This week I:
– Lost 5.4 lbs. (292.6)
– Drank all my water everyday. 66oz/day.
– Didn’t go to the farmer’s market (still have leftover food, seemed silly to buy more)
– New recipe this week: Stuffed Peppers
I still need to:
– Start collecting clear/glass containers for storing stuff in the fridge to make stuff easy to identify.
– Finish the fridge
Overall a good week. I think my lunch portions have gotten too big so that I’m not hungry for my afternoon snack. I need to reset those back down to nice-sized. Either that or it’s possible I’m bored with the ricotta+cranberries I keep packing.
My pants are very much looser and I think next week I’ll see about dropping down to a smaller size. “Luckily” I have “too-small-for-me” pants packed away in a rubber tub. I think I’ve got at least the next two sizes. Once I get below that (Lord willing) I’ll actually have to buy some new pants.
I don’t like Dannon’s blueberry greek yogurt. The vanilla isn’t bad but I wish my grocery store would go back to carrying the plain style. Ah well.
Life is stressful, I’m getting through it but I expect it to be stressful for a while. Work is good.. busy is good right?
This weekend we’re camping at Crown. I’m going to be planning meals hard and trying very hard to stick to them. This last weekend I only gained one pound over the weekend. That’s TONS better than normal. So the focus for this weekend is good food, good portions and LOTS of water. Wish me luck.
