59Carol's Journal, 24 Feb 24

Putting things in perspective - I gained 0.2 pounds this week. Seldom am I at such a loss as to explain what happened this past week.

The first 3 days I was losing well. Then I gained and kept gaining for the next three days. This morning was a significant drop. From my highest amount of calories this week to my lowest was about 150 calories. Not a very large spread. I averaged at my low end of my 'window' This pattern should have resulted in a 1 to 2 pound loss this week. It has in the past. When I kept gaining, the calorie intake did not suggest I should. I am truly baffled by this past week. If I look at exercise (which I seldom factor in as a weight loss indicator) this past week I averaged 45 minutes a day up a little bit from the last two weeks of 40 and 43 min/day. I would say it has nothing to do with this week's experience.

My plan for next week is to go forward as per normal and see what happens. However next week is not going to be particularly 'normal'. I am subbing all day Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. At the moment it looks like I am in town Wednesday as well. I need to think about how I am dealing with breakfast and lunch for those days.

This past week was relatively quiet as I was home attending to various chores most days. One town day where I left the house at 6am and got home at 8pm. Friday I proctored apprenticeship exams. It was a lot of fun because I got to read an entire 120 question exam to a young man. It was an early morning leaving at 6:30 am but I was home by 3pm.

Tonight I am going dancing!! There is a band coming into town that I am hopeful is a good Blues band. The dance is a 45 minute drive away but it will be worth it.
