It has been a different sort of week around here. Last weekend I spent showing my friend around town and entertaining her. Less than stellar food choices, I admit...although I could have done much worse. She and I split some of the more questionable choices though, so I only had small portions of French fries and some Mexican restaurant appetizers. She was barely on her way back home when we had an ice storm and I was iced in at home for two days. No exercise....well, except I did shovel my walk and drive once, resulting in a lot of soreness in my bad hip. The only day I could have walked this week was Thursday and it didn't happen because I had doctor appointments....and there was threat of snow on Friday so I needed to get groceries as well. I am so thankful I did get groceries because the snow early Friday was much more than anticipated and I am once again stuck at home.
Not the makings of a good weight loss week...so imagine my surprise to find I had lost 2.2 lbs this week! That takes me to 21 lbs lost dince Dec 11, and I am extremely close to my next "mini goal" of 220. I needed that inspiration this weekend, as I have found it hard to keep myself from snacking on junk while stuck indoors all this time. I have resisted, but the temptation has been great.

losing 1.9 lb a week
20 February 2015
A really good loss this week. That makes me feel better about all the restaurant food I will be eating this weekend (at least 4 meals...so much more than normal). I know one of the restaurants we're eating at tonight....it's southern style home cooking. Which means there are a lot of vegetables, but they are also smothered in butter. Also, the chicken is fried. This place is clogged arteries waiting to happen. My friend wants to go there though, and I want her to do all she wants in the short time she's visiting. At least that's the only meal out today, so I will try to balance it with light meals earlier in the day.
Total loss since Dec 11th...18.8 lbs.

losing 2.6 lb a week
19 February 2015
It has been a busy week, resulting in my not checking in here as much. The up side...I see that I have lost about 1.5 lbs this week so far (one more day to go before I record it, hoping it doesn't spike up).
I'm preparing for a friend visiting from out of state this weekend. It has kept me very active in preparations, and showing her around town will be quite a workout with lots of walking. It also means eating out a lot, though, which means more sodium and fat than usual in my diet. I'm hoping the activity will be enough to offset the extra calories.
Found a smoothie combo that I love, and it's only running around 200 calories...pineapple, mango, orange, and kale. I'm going pretty heavy on the kale. Usually have this as a mid-morning snack...it keeps me full until lunch, and it takes the pressure off of me trying to fit in enough fruits and vegetables. I still make sure I have veggies with lunch and dinner, but I don't have to stress it so much.
Didn't increase my distance walking this week. I wanted to, but had some hip pain earlier in the week that concerned me. I also didn't want to risk injury with my friend coming this weekend. Would feel terrible if I wasn't able to show her around. Will see how I'm feeling Monday, may increase the distance next week.

Holding steady today. That is a welcome surprise, because I had quite a bit of popcorn at the movies yesterday (no butter added, but it's still far from being a healthy snack, lots of fat and sodium). I was prepared to see a little spike today.
No school here today, but I convinced my daughter to go out walking with me (I usually do it after I drop her at school). It is cold and wet here, our coldest expected day this week, but it wasn't a bad walk. Felt some hip pain, so will probably stick with my one mile walks this week and not increase my distance.
Making most of my meals today from leftovers in the fridge. I love when there are lots of leftovers and I can do something other than hover in the kitchen for hours!

Wow, down almost a lb (.8 to be exact) from yesterday. I'm not sure what has my weight loss suddenly picking up steam the last few days but I'm all for it.
I did well at Applebees yesterday, stuck to the light menu and went with the peppered sirloin with whole grains for 350 calories. Stuck to my plan all day, except I did have one glass of red wine in the evening (still finished the day with a few hundred calories left). I'm not much of a drinker, really, maybe one or two a month...and if you're going to have alcohol, red wine is the way to go (health and calorie-wise). I didn't get as many fruits and veggies as I like, though, so today I already had a smoothie to get a good jump on it...kale, pineapple, mango and banana.
Only challenge I'm worried about today is going to the movies. When I smell that popcorn it's hard to resist the call...
