Heh, we have a high of 70 today and I'm all, get out the sweaters!
I haven't weighed myself in months, but judging by how my clothes fit, I've gained. I should probably weigh myself before I start whatever I do to reduce because I do find that initial weight drop very satisfying.
So, I think I hurt myself yesterday. Coloring in a coloring book.
Getting old sucks.
(Okay, raking leaves may have contributed, but I really think it was the coloring.)
My calorie goal is less than 1300 a day. If I can ever compel myself to exercise I might increase that to 1500. The tiny little things I do to cut calories:
Regular coffee instead of latte - coconut milk or skim only no sweeteners
No cheese on breakfast sandwich
Remove one piece of bread from breakfast sandwich
Giant salad at least once a day, at least 3 cups of greens.
Lara bars eaten as 2 snacks, not inhaled at once.
No creamy salad dressings
Mustard instead of ketchup or mayo
Only 1 glass of wine at night.
After a week or two if these relatively small adjustments then I can move to bigger things like not eatting out so much or buying frozen.
Usually by week 2 I am in a groove. The trick is how long it holds. A few weeks or a couple of months. And then how bad and long the backslide is. This last time, I only went about 3 weeks of not tracking calories and I think I kept intake on average btw 1500-1800 calories a day, not back to where my average was more like 2200.

That's hardcore coloring.

Coloring without a net.
And we don't even own a scale, so I'm just tracking my food and going by how those jeans fit.
I track my weight every day, and it makes me a little nuts. Going by how my jeans fit might be a better idea.

When the crayons start breaking, that's a sign you're clenching up. Stay hydrated.
We own a scale, but it is in Max's bathroom not mine. I don't weight myself generally. When I do, it is no more than once a week. Rely more on dr visits for it.
I had to look up Take 5 - it has pretzels? That sounds amazing.
I KNOW!

Oh god -- we're in the 60s today (down from yesterday), and I'm mostly just angry I still have to shave my legs. It's NOVEMBER! It should be reliably tights and sweaters weather!
Yeah 14-16 apparently just sucks wrt parental relations.
Yup.
My weight is starting to creep back up at my post baby 30 lb weight loss. So I've started tracking my food and weight again.
Also I can't really comment on my weight gain while my mouth is full of candy. Next week?
