345.7

I had bumped up to 349.sumthin, which I thought might be due to a lot of salt consumption. Didn't eat particularly carefully this week-end, and still show a loss. Yea!

Had planned to do yard work tonight as my exercise, but it didn't take much to talk me out of it. We will do yard work tomorrow, and I may walk at lunch as well.

I'm considering letting my gym membership lapse during the summer. Sean is wanting to walk, and I do have light hand weights here at home. And money is a little tight. We will give it some consideration before my next dues are due. (tee hee!)

Today is the first day in a long time where I can honestly say that I made good food choices. It feels good. Sean has helped. Cooked smaller portions. Puts away the leftovers, so that I don't put them away in my tummy. He wants to lose some weight, too, so that will also help me.

I overate this week-end, but not as much as usual. I guess that is a small step.

Sean and I walked last evening, about 1.5 miles. Along the new section of Hulman Street, down to Brown and back. The Heritage Trail now goes along the south side of the street, and they put in new sidewalks on the north side.

My friend Kim and I walked at lunch today. Wasn't wearing my watch, but I'd say 20-25 minutes.

346.6

For the last 3 weeks, my weight has stayed basically the same. It think it is the over-eating on the week-ends that is really getting me. Yes, my eating during the week needs to be better, too, but it is the week-end blow outs, I think, that keep me stuck. I need to find different ways to celebrate the week-end and reward myself, other than food.

I'll need to be especially careful at the shower and wedding Saturday.

Did pretty well today. I even checked "make good eating choices" on my goals list. I could still eat less, but I decided against the chocolate candy. I did have 2 no sugar added fudge bars. 90 calories, 2 g fat for both. And very yummy!

I climbed 4 flights of stairs again. Plus 2 individual flights, too. And I did 13 minutes on the exercise bike. That was all my butt could endure.

I tried on the black scrubs; still not fit for public consumption. My goal for July 1 is to be able to wear them to work. Only 1 goal for next month, and I need to work hard to reach it. I have got to get this eating in control.
