Well here we are. It's Good Friday and another long weekend for us Canadians. It is an official stat holiday for everyone except essential services. Nice. Also, it's my husbands birthday. We had lots of fun trying to figure out the Tanita that I gave him today and In spite of much scoffing at ..."who wants to know how fat you really are" and "I'm pretty good, eh.?" I think he was sufficiently intrigued. We all took turns figuring out how much fat we had, and all had our own take on this. Fun. Now we need to set it up and start monitoring how we actually do. It will be interesting, especially as my husband (the athlete) figures out what this all means. He loves to snack as much as he loves to exercise so it's mostly a net zero of weight gain for him. And as my kids reminded me, it was really something I probably wanted more for myself, maybe not so much for him. Lol!
Anyway...today I finally hit the next mini marker. No matter what I did, I've been hovering just above 155 lbs and it's taken me forever to finally get there. I tested my old scale today about 10 times and after a few times below the 155 mark, that's what I finally recorded. (funny how it can vary between weigh ins). My weight eventually got there after several tries. Must have been those peanuts that finished calling my name this week (as i gradually helped them disappear) that delayed me from getting below 155 lbs. There are no more peanuts left to call my name. (they sure were good). There are worse snacks, however, than unsalted, roasted peanuts. So... Tomorrow is my sons birthday. Another day of eating. Today, tomorrow and of course, Easter on Sunday are full days of eating. I would be happy if I at least maintain, let along loose weight. Tomorrow is the last day of my "no white stuff" challenge. I think I'll relax my eating on Sunday, consider it a carb load day and then continue this " no white stuff" after the weekend is over. It has been remarkable how well I did with it. So.. I'll try to be good today as I host a house full of guests and see how I do. No more peanuts for now. They're gone. Anyway...
Have a happy Easter everyone.
