I lost this week. I lost 0.8 pounds. This was good in the sense that it was a loss.
It was disappointing in that I was down 3 pounds earlier in the week. I was disappointing as this month I had a net gain of 3 pounds.
It is also disappointing in that I have to lose 3 pounds in the next 4 weeks to manage to not gain in 13 weeks. I had set myself the goal of losing 8 pounds in 13 weeks. I have 4 weeks left and I am up 2.8 pounds.
The first three days of last week I was eating in the zone and losing consistently. In the last 4 days I ate in the zone one day, one day was quite high and the other two high. I averaged 70 calories daily over my zone for the week which could easily have translated into a gain.
What I did right: I went swimming for a half hour two days. I went for an half hour walk one day (it was icy so cut it short!) and an hour walk on another day. I packed a lunch when I subbed. I waited to eat supper until I got home on one late town day.
What went wrong: I had pre-ordered my lunch at a Board-Staff lunch but when I got there they didn't have my choice available. I had to choose something from a limited choice and I chose a quesadilla. When I got home the nutritional guide said it was 900 calories!!! The other two days was essentially having toast and butter in the evening. Some was planned and some was not.
As for the week it was another busy one. I had the Board-Staff appreciation meal, met with various bankers to set up finances, assisted with an audit, subbed at the school, attended a zoom course, swam, Qigong, and assisted my daughter with her deep cleaning. Not very much down time. I am anticipating a quiet day tomorrow!
