241.4! New low. Its going to be a long trip if I celebrate every .2 pounds!! Hehe. Can I have a candy bar for every .2 lbs? lol
Yesterday went lovely. Zach's confirmation went excellent, photobomb!
** cant figure out why my whole picture aint showing!
Check it out! Check out my boot/shoe failure. Lol.
The suit! That suit is about 10 years old, from my Father in laws funeral which coincided with my daughters holy communion. In fact, I am pretty sure that was my last time in a church too, hehe. <Ducks lightning> . I am suprised in a way I fit in it, and if you extrapolate the data, I must have weighed about that much back then.
The suit brought up some memories of my weights, and I want to say I was hovering at 240-250 at that time, and when I did atkins I went down to 225. If I can place a date on a trip I took then, I think I can, then I can determine when I weighed 225, but that was at a loss. You can obviously tell i am obsessed with my weight history. lol
My RL Buddy Barry showed up yesterday on the USS Abe Lincoln - CVN72! I can say that because its here now! lol. Anyway, I met him last night after the confirmation as we have not seen each other in year or more. Had Heineken for dinner, lol. I did eat a hummus and chicken wrap when I got home. I did not sleep well, and it was from eating too late. Lesson learned (again). Barry spends months at a time on that boat, so I make some exceptions to my routine and diet when he is in town. As a person who works overseas, I understand the loneliness that can happen, as well as the difficulty of being away from your family and other friends. So as such, we accommodate each other when we can. Prior to fatsecret, I did that with pretty much any tom,dick, or harry who came to town. Now I reserve it for special, longtime friends. Barry would be probably #1 on that list so..
I expect the next few days to be tough on my journey and weight loss. Mainly because of the Amstel brewing company. XD. I can blame Barry too (protip; its nobody's fault but my own). I did eat well last night, and only had a few beers. Plans for tonight are much of the same. Perhaps I will eat something healthy before going out.
Tomorrow we are having a BBQ at my place, and wifey bought turkey burgers, turkey dogs, and some healthy snacks. I am not sure Barry is into that kind of thing, but it has to be better than ship food! hehe.
We may hit up some Thai food too this weekend, which is relatively healthy. I do love their food, panang curry and phad Thai are great. I think Thai food much be much better for you than "Americanized" Chinese food.
Today I am grateful for my family, Wife, Daughter, and Son with his new saint name. I am grateful for my kitty, who photobombed some of our photo's last night by licking herself in the background!! I am grateful for family and friends, and facebook and fatsecret which helps us stay close and watch each other from wherever we are on the planet. And I am grateful for my buddy Barry who is in town, even though I will probably gain a few lbs. Oh the sacrifices we make. I will try to be mindful of my journey, and log whats going on.
/Cheers, JP
