Day 64 and still 28 pounds gone
Day 64 and still 28 pounds gone
265/237/200 3-5-07 Got on my scale this morning and saw that my weight had not gone any lower. Too bad! I had a few more calories this weekend than I wanted to, but still the indicator wanted to go down. Oh, well! I hope by Friday I have 30 pounds gone. If not by Friday, than it will happen soon. I was hanging doors this weekend with my far-better half, and it is fun seeing better doors to some of our rooms. A lot of satisfaction seeing them up. The day has been beautiful here so far - blue sky, flowers are lovely. Yesterday we walked around a portion of SE Portland displaying various kinds of art work. Some of the places were truly amazing, including a woodshop next to a place that made bronze statuary. Making bronze statues requires a variety of intricate steps. (Bronze statues are largely hollow, this to reduce their weight and the amount of bronze [with related copper] used.) After I do an hour or two of paper work, I hope to go up my little hill. I hope everyone is having a great week and a great month! Yours truly, Caleb |

Day 64 and still 28 pounds gone
Hello,
I have been away for the weekend on a mini-vacation. I thought that I should take one before I go to Vegas for the real vacation on the 18th. I had a few more calories this weekend than I wanted to I always have more calories than I want to on the weekend. That is the time that I travel a great deal and eat in those blasted restaurants. For one thing, the cooks use a lot of grease/butter in the baking/grilling to baste their meats, but of course they don't tell you this. Caleb, I know that scale wants to go down, the trick is to talk to it. Say really nice things to it before you step on it. It works miracles. LOL I will update my weight changes tomorrow. Have a great evening/morning/day, whatever time it is when you read this. Jackie P.S. If you try the cabbage let me know how you like it! "Caleb" wrote in message oups.com...

I hope everyone is having a great week and a great month! Yours truly, Caleb Jackie -- I absolutely agree that weekends are more difficult for many people than weekdays. Sure is true for me and I rarely have chefs plying their chafing dishes for my taste buds. I'm speaking lovingly to my scale -- but it seems (doggone it!) to respond only to the cold and heartless calculus of calories in versus calories consumed. Rats! Darn it! Drat! etc. (Put your own imprecation in here.) But at least I'm down another pound, and 36 more to go. Now the pounds get harder to get rid of! Yours, Caleb 265/236/200 |
