Week 8: September 28- October 4 2010

This week I:
– Gained 0.8 lbs. (293.4)
– Drank all my water everyday. 66oz/day.
– Went to the farmer’s market (yellow onions, cabbage, garlic, wheat fettuccine, gigli pasta, wheat shell pasta, and pesto)
– New recipe this week: Chicken N Dumplings

I still need to:
– Finish the fridge
– Make Dr. appointment(general checkup and to figure out why my feet hurt)

I had way too much eating out this week. I need to get that in check. Even before the weekend (which was rife with bad eating) I was already eating too much purchased food. I’m pleased that overall I only gained .8 lbs.. but I should be doing better.

On the plus side, this week I was able to button my coat all the way down without putting strain on the buttons. Also this week I started pants that are 2 sizes smaller than I was wearing when I started. They’re a smidge tight but not oppressively so.
