Big gain this week. I had expected that I would do better in my eating this week however I did not count on the number of times that I ended up in town. Going to town can play havoc with my eating at the best of times but since I seldom go to town more than once or twice in a week I can counter balance it fairly well. This week I have been in town 6 days in a row! The consequences of my choices on these days is a 5.6 weight gain. Urghh!
Fortunately it doesn't appear that next week will be quite so much on the road time. I think I am looking at one evening and one day. That is doable. I will need to go right back to my regular eating habits.
One of the days in town included celebrating my granddaughter's 17th birthday. She wanted Chinese food and card games. We gathered at my father in law's house and had a lovely family evening. (on the food side I indulged way too much in deep fried everything and dessert!)
I spent yesterday at the local Trade Fair as moral support to my daughter as she is doing her first foray into being a home based business. It was a long day but we had fun. Today I am back at the Trade Fair but this time at the Restorative Justice booth to do my volunteer time. This afternoon I am attending a funeral. Other activities this week included a nice visit with a friend, a board meeting and meeting with a client. I am really looking forward to a few days at home!

It's tough if you need to eat out and your routine changes. But it's also better than staying at home all the time which is what I do. The weight will come off quickly once you get back to your preferred WOE. Good luck!

Control your portion size and then skip desserts & snacks throughout the day. Those are your weapons. Good luck next week!

Fritzy- I like it when it works out that I am in town no more than twice a week as that seems like a good balance for me! I will go back to my regular eating and it will make a difference.

Just Bananas - you are absolutely right that is exactly what works. I am up against my own attitudes - the 'it is a treat to get to go out' mentality. It is the only time that I allow myself sweets is when I am in town. This is fine if I am only in town one day or at most two days as I can keep it down to a dull roar. When it is more than that and I am dealing with my own entitled attitude it is not a winning combination. Basically, I need an attitude adjustment. Unfortunately attitude adjustments are not as successful for me when I am tired and don't have good habits to lean on. To be successful I need to plan how to approach town days when I am at home and well rested. I will need to plan what my approach will be if there is one day or if there are six. For me the plan will be different in each of those scenarios.
