Substantial gain this week. By the numbers I could have expected a 2 pound gain and in fact it was a 3.4 pound gain.
Throughout the week I averaged 85 calories per day over the ideal amount of calories for me to ingest. That is about 1 large apple per day. It adds up and the result isn't what I like. It is easy to dismiss 100 calories or less as not making a difference - that just isn't true! Just as going 50-100 calories less than what I need to maintain my weight will result in a 1-2 pound loss.
This up coming week doesn't have social events that include eating in them. That usually makes things a bit easier. Last week I was at a 50th wedding anniversary and a potluck for the North Country Fair coordinators. Last week I was in town 4 days that included long hours clearing out my father in law's house so eating in town and coming home late. It is expected this week to have that pattern continue. I will need to be careful with my choices.
