    @SModa61 along that same line, DH saw a new doctor on Tuesday and was told he needed to quit the board due to the stress.

    @quiltingjaine So glad your DH is taking care of himself. My DH has spent the whole day dealing with one obstinate jerk in our association who is determined to just cause trouble. We head back to the insanity on 8 am flight tomorrow.

    Sheri, I wish I could say he is. Yesterday he called Carnival to see about getting internet for one day so he can Zoom the stupid board meeting! It is possible but he’ll have to arrange it once we get on the ship. It will be our 3rd full day at sea.

    @quiltingjaine Sneak over to the purser and give him a tip to "accidentally" disable the internet. :P We will be a little nutty here for the next week. Condo board training tomorrow (most of the day) for DH, the late afternoon meeting. Tuesday, double meetings AM and after dinner. Then late in the week, the annual meeting, after which we personally will host a social for all the member of the association in our unit. Meanwhile, our "jerk" has been a pip all day today, on top of the past three days.

    Sheri, No, doing that would only make him mad at the cruise line. So if he can get it and it works it will be on him. Without him, it is likely there will be a lot of 3-3 votes and things tabled until the meeting next month.

    @quiltingjaine Sorry for my tardy responses. Can't seem to get myself together. You are logically right, and I gave bad advice. DH has two meetings in our unit today to prepare for the annual meeting later this week (followed by the social). I'm looking forward to the week being over!!

    I figured out my binge problem as I faced something similar yesterday - I'm bored and lonely! I realized that if I kept myself thoroughly engaged in something, I wasn't particularly hungry. But when I wasn't fully distracted by tasks, I found myself constantly seeking carbs or sugar. What really made me notice was the fact that 10 minutes after eating a very filling and balanced meal, I was searching my pantry and fridge for something carby and had a moment of "I just ate and was quite satisfied, there's no way I'm hungry 10 minutes later, this is something else" and I forced myself to go sit on the couch and read. Once I was into the book, I was fine. Well, then. The goal, now, is to stay distracted in the evenings once work is over.[/i]

    @CamandJarvis Thanks so much for sharing this. This is EXACTLY what I have been going through in the evenings after dinner. I've been trying to rely on the TV to distract me, but my book that I haven't picked up in 2 months is an EXCELLENT idea. I will try that tonight for sure! It's a rough patch but I'm confident we will get through it!

    02/02-192.4-(Trend Weight: 192.3)-

    02/03-194.2-(Trend Weight: 192.5)- Wow! Up nearly 2 pounds overnight. I think not taking my Lasix has a lot to do with this. I will try to stay home and take it today. Night time snacks are also still a factor. Just too many!!! Meals have been good, obedient, pre-planned. So have the snacks until I go overboard on them. I am not giving up.

    02/04-194.2-(Trend Weight: 192.7)- No change. How DISAPPOINTING! Actually the word I should use is INSANITY. Definition: Doing the same thing over & over but expecting different results. Yea, this is INSANITY. I’m going to try reading tonight—a tip from @CamandJarvis . I also have another food idea of my own that I may try to implement tonight. If it helps I will let you all know. Stay tuned!

    Round 282 88.8 kg
    Round 283 88.4
    Round 284 87.75
    Round 285 87.55

    Day 1, Fri 87.5, eating = good, 30 minutes running on treadmill
    Day 2, Sat 87.7, median is 87.6 which is above the last round. I'm running 5 kilometers today so I'll keep my food at the same level. I ate a kilogram of peas yesterday, and my itchiness due to eczema has reduced. Apparently it's due to chlorophyll and peas have a lot of chlorophyll. I'll have another kilogram today.
    Day 3, Sun 86.8, median is 87.5 just below last round. The peas have worked, my itchiness has dropped by say 2/3. I'm not sure how often to have them.
    Day 4, Mon 87.2, median is 87.35
    Day 5, Tue 87.2, median is 87.2
    Day 6, Wed 87.7, median is 87.35

    SW Rnd 286: 149.9 (68 kg)

    1/31- 149.8 (67.9 kg) Off to a good start. Honestly, I would be happy just to end this round anywhere in the 140s. It was supposed to snow today, but the weather warmed up and we've had rain all day instead. I'm glad I didn't have to commute home in a mess but I'm hoping the mountains got some snow to build up the snowpack.
    2/1- 149.1 (67.6 kg) Today my husband insisted I buy new bras because none of them fit. I have been resorting to wearing my sports bra and even that was on its tightest setting and wasn't as supportive any more. So we drove 170 miles (275 km) one way to Dillard's so I could go somewhere with fitters and a decent selection. I had forgotten how nice it is to have properly fitting and supportive undergarments. I should have done this a long time ago.
    2/2- 149.8 (67.9 kg) Only a semi-productive day but that's okay.
    2/3- 149.3 (67.7 kg) Crazy busy Monday at work. Turkey tacos for dinner tonight. Staying in calories.
    2/4- 148.7 (67.4 kg) Bitter wind and snowy tonight. I had my monthly coffee with friends and did a paint n sip afterwards. I need to stick with the chocolate chip cookie at Starbucks. I did the brownie tonight and it wasn't worth the calorie difference.
