Weekly Weigh-in (Week 33)

Well, it's Sunday yet again and that makes it time for my weekly weigh-in.

This week I feel like I did alright. At least partly that was due to the fact that most of my days went about the same. Get up, have a granola bar, go to work, have a 6" sandwich at Subway (either oven roasted chicken breast or buffalo chicken), finish my shift, come home and then have a small, simple, and delicious dinner. Sometimes the shift is in the evening so the dinner at the end becomes lunch in the middle, but for the most part, that's been how things have gone. Fairly consistent and low calorie intake, fairly consistent and relatively high compared to what I had been doing calorie output.

For all that, I feel good. I've got lots of energy, despite the fact that I've had almost no soda or other caffeine that wasn't part of a mixed drink in almost literally months. I'm sleeping well, for once in my life, and that's helping me to be less tired. I want to try and force myself to eat more fruits and veggies I think. My diet has long been lacking that and since the move I've been doing rather well with that. Still not where I'd like to be but making progress. I also want to be cooking more, both for my diet and because I just love cooking. With my work schedule the way it is that may be difficult for now, but I'm hopeful that things will settle down a bit and I can get to the cooking I'd love to be doing.

Well, that's enough about my life for now, and plenty of musing about what to do in the future. So, what does the scale have to say today? 238.8 which is down 1.2 pounds from last week. Continuing in a good direction. So far I'm down 44.3 pounds, which is the approximate weight of a five and a half year old child. That's a good place to be I feel. So for now, I'm just gonna mostly keep what I've been doing, try and work on the fruits, veggies, and cooking, and watch where it takes me. So far, it's been going in the right direction.
