Today the weather was gray and rainy late in the day. Have to admit, I made gravy for dinner! I used fatfree milk - I am thinking it's got to be fewer calories!
I tried to focus on eating well. I haven't checked my calories, but I know that is the key to losing weight.
My daughter and I had dinner together - she was ticked off at me for asking her to take her clothes out of the dining room though so the dinner was a little tense. I talk, she has nothing going on with her except school. Not that she has actually taken her stuff out yet 3 hours later either. Ugh. Teenagers. I ought to get extra alimony for having to hang out with this one til September! On the other hand, she is not going away for the summer - clinging a little to home a bit longer, spending time here, hanging out with her friends, in her same job and not moving to the Island to work. Gotta stay here mentally with her - I am always running off mentally ahead of now into my imagined future!
Funny, so many things were validated from my high school experience! It's a wonder that so many of us went to good schools apparently, our guidance counselor was awful! Pre-internet of course, she basically said to me: Are you good in math? (Uh, well, I have been going to an elite technical school for 6 years, I think I am good at math..) and pulled 5 "engineering" applications out of a folder which I filled out without knowing about them. Told one girl that she shouldn't study nutrition because a girl with a good education shouldn't be writing fluff articles for magazines? Maybe she was leading us by negative reinforcement!
Okay, weight control: I did move around a little more today than yesterday, and I did eat more carefully.
5 weeks, 5 pounds? Well it's only Tuesday so there is still a chance! I'm still weighing sporadically not just weekly but I'll count from Sunday to Sunday to gauge whether I'm losing enough to keep up with myself.
I guess I started a little challenge with myself.
Good luck to me and hope you all are doing well!
