Another of those weird little sudden weight drops. I ate as much salt as ever yesterday and drank a lot of water, but it isn't reflected on the scale. And I'll take it, thank you very much.
Got out of the house with the dogs yesterday, which was nice. Then I tried a veggie-pancake recipe that was surprisingly satisfying. Grated sweet potato, carrots, onions, eggs and just a little whole wheat flour. Had 2 with a side of savory greek yogurt. The leftovers are good the second day.
I am finding that I really like cooking and searching out interesting new recipes. I've been reading books like In Defense of Food, Real Food Has Curves, etc. I am finding a way of eating that works for me and I think I could maintain it for the long-term.
I try not to tell people I'm "dieting" because I realized that the calories a day I need to eat right now to lose 1 pound per week (1700) are about what I would need to eat to maintain my goal weight of 145 when I get there. Interesting isn't it? So it really is a lifestyle change. That's why I am trying to make changes I can sustain in the future. Now I just have to remember this when I am feeling like over-eating :-)

losing 5.1 lb a week
18 September 2014
Been struggling with my hunger this past week. Combine that with not being able to go swimming and it's been a poor week for the old diet. I don't think I actually gained anything but water weight because I ate a lot of salt yesterday....part of the salty cravings. I find it hard to believe, but it's almost like the sudden change to cooler weather has triggered my body to start packing it in for the long winter ahead, lol. Silly body, doesn't it know that it will still get food even in the winter? Sigh. The Nature Box snacks are delicious and, arguably, healthy, but I just can't have them in the house when the willpower is so weak.

gaining 0.9 lb a week
10 September 2014
Finally made it to the new grocery store, and, bonus, I biked there and my knee wasn't too stiff. Resisted the swarms of staff offering free sweets, well, I had one coconut macaroon.
A lady in line at the very busy grocery store hit me with her cart no less than 8 times today, after the 2nd time I turned and said, "I know it's a big target, but could you try and resist?" She apologized, but it didn't stop her or her kids from doing it, but I decided to just not let it get to me. It wasn't going to kill me, after all.
Received a shipment of Nature Box snacks. I am impressed with the ingredients and the tastes are pretty good. I think I better stick to once every other month on them, but it's nice to have something ready-made to snack on instead of always having to make from scratch.

Ok, I know I weighed-in yesterday, but any time the scale shows a loss, I'm taking it ! LOL. It always happens sudden-like. Weight loss is weird.
I'm going grocery shopping ! So exciting. It's the only justified shopping I allow myself and it's been 3 weeks, so I am really looking forward to checking out the new grocery store and getting some fresh vegetables. Hopefully, the knee won't hurt too much on the bike, it's healing, but it takes time to grow back skin on a 2" x 2" area. I wish it would hurry up though, because I just got back in the pool after their one week annual maintenance shutdown and then this happened. I like swimming in the summer, but last fall and winter I slacked off and I don't want that to happen this year. It's essential to my physical and mental well-being.
Sending skinny thoughts to all my FS warriors.
