I do meat and cheese roll ups with a little mayo. I even put a strip of pickle in them the first time I traveled with them. I wasn’t particularly happy about the TSA agent giving them a hard squeeze but other than having the juice squeezed out, they were great and very satisfying.
@quiltingjaine Of course I could travel with a cooler. But being from a small Amish town with virtually nothing, I must admit I do look forward to that occasional restaurant meal since traveling is about the only time we really get the opportunity to get something out, often trying some place new. A break from preparing food too is also nice. There was a time in my life that I actually looked forward to having surgery or being in the hospital just to get prepared food, sad but true, lol. I do, however, bring my approved snacks on extra-long trips. I refuse to buy any junk from the gas stations or rest stops.3 -

06/02 -183.4- (Trend weight185.2)
06/03 -184.6- (Trend weight185.2) Not too bad of a day yesterday. I stayed within calorie though my carbs were over target. I used the exercise bike for 32 minutes and I did a lot of deep cleaning in the house. Up today on the scale but its probably catching up to the binges/splurges I had on night time snacks recently. Today I may head out of town for the planned trip of shopping. It depends when my drywall guy gets done for the day. I hate to go because I know that lunch or dinner will be out and it will just be another day of a heavier weight on the scale tomorrow. A rollercoaster I’d like to stop. However, I really would like to go and get it out of the way. The projects they are starting will keep them later the rest of the week. Regardless, I know I’ll be right back on top of my plan in the days following so I suppose it is what it is. Have a great week everyone. Crush it!
06/04 -182.6- (Trend weight184.9) A nice drop today which I am grateful for. Trying again to ward off the night time over-indulgences, I ate dinner at 9:30 pm. About 10:30 I made a protein shake after researching if it was okay to drink one at night so close to bed (bed about 1:30 am). It’s fine, and even helpful depending on what article you read I suppose. About 30 minutes after drinking it I felt suddenly very hungry. I ignored it and it did finally pass. I did not feel the need later for any other snacks so in the end I think it may have helped. My goal was to have the protein help fill me and the sweetness of it satisfy my sweet tooth. Last night it did seem to work. I did not sleep well or sleep much, but that has been going on for days. I’m really tweaking and playing around with so many aspects of health and weight loss right now. The perfect storm is out there somewhere! Down 2.0 lbs this round which basically happened overnight. See you all in 262!
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

5/26 133.0 Great Greek yesterday with local grand children (all in their 20’s except DGGS) since their mom and dad are in the Bahamas for a well deserved vacation. Today a housewarming at the new home of our blind friend and his daughter. Tomorrow a Memorial Day community picnic.
5/27 134.0 I’m fine with that. Memorial Day community picnic this evening. Pulled pork(?) in SUPER SWEET sauce, “salad” was iceberg lettuce. All in all it was a pretty disappointing meal. Two adult beverages.
5/28 135.0 OOPS! I seem to have not posted.
5/29 134.5 Getting eating under control again.
5/30 134.0
5/31 133.0 Finally got my nails done. Took Oskar to the vet. Doing labs to see if his diet needs to change. He weighed 16# in late October and was 14.8# yesterday in spite of eating double portions or more for the last 2 months.
6/1 134.0 Yesterday was our last community Arts & Crafts gathering until autumn. We had a Tea with many goodies and I am weak. A week from today is an ice cream social. I need to develop a backbone!
6/2 134.0 Great Greek today. Other than small salad and 4 or 5 oz of chicken (1 skewer) I had a snack of 4 radishes.
6/3 133.0 Juan’s Flaming Fajitas this evening with friends from the neighborhood. Someone needs to keep the chips away. House made and so good!
6/4 132.5 (I think) Dinner last night didn’t happen as friend has a cold and didn’t want to go out. We ate leftover pot roast - one of my favorites. Yesterday was a hard day. Lab results on Oskar revealed a few serious issues- diabetes, inflamed pancreas and likelihood of developing kidney disease in the next 12-24 months. Needless to say, I am devastated. Tomorrow the vet will come and help him cross the Rainbow Bridge. The least we can do is avoid the further stress of the car ride and “cold” feeling of the medical office.9 -

5/27-177-Had a busy week getting ready for DS’s graduation party at our house. Now just putting things away and getting rid of food that we don’t normally eat. It was nice to have family and friends along with nice weather.
Going fishing in Alaska in July and want to get rid of 15 lbs. by then. I honestly am serious THIS TIME! I promise!!!
5/28-176-Well, that is a start. Did a lot of yard work and played a lot of ping pong and sweat like crazy.
5/29-176-The neighbor lady gave me a loaf of Portuguese SweetBread for fixing her drip. Of course I came home and ate two pieces, which I shouldn’t have. Ugh! I am not eating anymore of it.
5/30-176-Thats OK. At dinner I went to go scoop creamy pesto sauce on my broccoli and scooped a bunch of extra chicken up with it…..Gardened after dinner. Need to ride the horse today.
5/31-176
6/4-179-Went to a fundraiser dinner last night. Avoided bread, dessert and alcohol but still had enough salty food. I will see everyone next round!6 -
Thank you @quiltingjaine for keeping this going!

Goal: Calorie Cycle for a weekly average between 1200 - 1500. Eat more vegetables and fruit. Drink 80oz water each day. Walk. Start building strength back using light weights.
Previous Comments5/26 - 178.0 - Up a little today.
5/27 - 178.8 - This is most likely salt and not enough water.
5/28 - 178.4 - I'm a salt freak. My husband even told me one day, can you just tap the salt instead of wildly shaking it and adding so much, not to mention it's all over everything.So, I started tapping - huh, it does help to use less and no more mess. LOL. He literally only eats added salt on boiled eggs. That's it. And the only process food he eats, which does have salt, is tortilla chips. My mom, too, I couldn't believe she could eat a potato without salt
For me, it's partly habit, too. I even eat it on watermelon, oranges, apples, in oatmeal - I really can't think of anything I don't add salt to except sweets. My husband and mom have shown me it can be done. So, I try again today. I'm starting with putting 1 tsp of salt in a baggie and only using it for the day. I'll reduce this down over the next weeks. I also probably need to buy unsalted butter. One thing at a time - I don't want to go too far out on a limb LOL. I need to experiment with spices more and use lemon. I think I would have done better over the years if I had high blood pressure, but my blood pressure is very low, but that doesn't mean it couldn't jump up as I'm aging. I look very forward to seeing what changes I see due to less salt.
(editing to say I knocked on wood after the high blood pressure comment. I know many people (my mom did, too) struggle with this and I'm very lucky, but it doesn't mean that luck will continue if I don't change my habits!)
5/29 177.4 - I kept my salt intake to 1 1/4 tsp salt. I'm happy with that! Will keep it at 1tsp today, and I only drank 40oz of water. I'll get 80oz today.
@Skyleen75 - Thanks for your comments about your husband's salt habits. Very funny. I hope you feel better. Going from your headcold to a colonoscopy - yike! If you don't mind me asking - What is "market" night? Re: "It is also market night so a busy day for me. I am a firm believer in fake it til you make it!!!"
Editing with this that I just read:
Extra sodium causes you to lose more calcium in your urine. Sodium and calcium share the same transport in the kidney so if you eat high sodium foods it will increase calcium leakage in the urine. Therefore, a high sodium diet can increase your chances for developing another stone.
I have had many kidney stones (and analyzed as a calcium). My bad habits are catching up with me since I'm getting older, and I can tell it is just harder to recover. It's never too late to change!!
5/30 - 176.4 - Finally, I'm back to where I was before I decided to eat a ton of pecans in 2 days, and I slacked off a little in other areas too. I only had 1 tsp salt yesterday. It wasn't that hard to keep my salt to 1 tsp because a lot of shaking the salt shaker is habit, and having to be mindful to take some out of a baggie helped. I'll cut back further in a week.

5/29 - 177.4
5/30 - 176.4
5/31 - 176.4
6/01 - 176.6I'm very glad to be solidly 176.x and not jumping back up.
6/02 - DNW - I didn't sleep more than 2 hours last night. I finally got up around 2a. I ate around 6:30a, and went back to bed around 7:30a, and didn't get up until 10:30a. I say all this because there was no way I was going to weigh knowing that it was not going to be an accurate reading, even if it was down 2 pounds, I wouldn't put it down. Hopefully tonight will be better!
6/03 - 176.8 - It will drop as long as I don't go off the rails. I'm sticking to plan.
6/04 - 176.4 - The scale said 175.x for a split second, then settled on 176.4. I'm glad I lost this round but I'm just ready to be done with 176.x. Looking forward to the next round!

I never really hit my water goal. Try harder maybe?
DGS had a big day yesterday. His first base hit (coach pitch) in youth baseball. It’s been a long time coming. 😊 Then right to a birthday party in the park with his friends. He’s big stuff now. Seven years old and leaving first grade in the dust.
Did those potato chips really need to be polished off last night. Glorious salt and oil. Need to do better this round.
5/27: 219.2
/logged; exercised; 74 oz water/
This drop really can’t be explained. Other than that my body is a water balloon.
DW and I broke out the bikes yesterday. We need to be somewhat ready for our mountain get-away with friends in July. She has an e-bike which will help her keep up with us on the sloped bike trails. I’m jealous, but happy for her. Naturally, I have a sore butt this morning. I will use that to remind me to do something active today.
Tossing a chicken on the smoker today some time.
5/28: 221.6
/logged; exercised; 70 oz water/
Had a good active day yesterday. Although for some reason MFP did not pick up on it. Chicken turned out good. Played cards at friend’s in the evening. Although I stayed on budget, the drinks and salty snacks were the wrong kind of calories.
5/29: 220.4
/logged; exercised; 70 oz water/
A little short on thoughts this morning…
Part of my entertainment yesterday was watching the neighbor behind get a new roof. There were 15 people up there doing the tear off. Looked like an ant hill. They started by 7:30 am and were all finished by 7:00 pm, including new gutters. Nobody was tied off. I had the cell phone ready to call 911. I didn’t use the binoculars except to check if one of the workers was drinking a beer or a Pepsi. It was Pepsi.
Just call me Mr. Kravitz. (anyone get the reference?)
5/30: 220.4
/logged; exercised; 70 0z water/
Up way too early this morning. I am below SW, but the average is up.
Food choices the next two days will be up for grabs with DBIL coming to fish with me. When I am fishing, I don’t really like to eat. And I don’t drink enough. I say, “I will take a drink after this next cast..” Then I repeat. I am like a Border Collie when I am on the water.
When I come off the water I am famished. I have been known to drag my boat through a fast food drive-through. So unwise. It works best to have an apple.
5/31: 219.4
/no logging; plenty of exercise; 64 oz water/
Avoided the fast food. And I avoided any large fish.Trying again today.
6/1: 220.4
/no logging; plenty of exercise; 70 oz water/
Back to logging today. Not too much damage done while fishing. In fact the functional exercise was great.
On a side note, my dog munched from the kitty litter box at the groomer on Wednesday. I think that might be why she has the Hershy Squirts. Gross. DW took a sample to the vet yesterday. Awaiting results. She is locked in the laundry room until further notice. This last paragraph qualifies as TMI, but I just needed to talk to someone about it. HA! Sorry.
6/2: 221.2
6/3: 220.4
/no logging; exercised; lots of water/
Very busy. Dog still not well, but showing signs of wellness. We put her on an intermittent fasting diet. 24/0. This may be changed soon. 😊
5/25: 221.6
SW on day before this round.
6/4: 221.2
Disappointing but well deserved ending to the round. Too much freelance eating.
@quiltingjaine I am so sorry to hear about Oskar.

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.4 -
@quiltingjaine My heart aches for you. When we had to put our 14 year old golden retriever to sleep from cancer, I kept thinking how in the world could we make this decision, and then realized that it was not a "decision" we were making, we had no choice out of our love for him and not wanting him to suffer any longer. No words really help, but I am so sorry.4 -
Thank you all for condolences. Today will be a hard day. 😢3

I'm not sure what's going on, but clearly I need to change up something. I'm thinking of tracking calories this week to get a feel for what I'm doing and see if I notice a trend!
