We had zoodles the other night with Italian dressing marinated chicken.2 -

PW - (I completely forgot to weigh on Thanksgiving so we'll use the prior week's weight which was 179ish).
Clearly Thanksgiving was more fun than it should have been. It's time to get back on top of things before the next round of holiday festivities really starts.6 -
I have been nursing my sick pup this week. Most of you know that I love my dog, Tucker, more than most people. He is doing much better and should be back to 100% in another day or two.
Below is my yesterday. I thought it was pretty funny, but did the spoiler as it is totally skippable.My routine has been a bit hectic lately with the extra dog duties. I left for work yesterday feeling good with what I had accomplished within the 30 minutes of waking up and running out the door. I had a dinner plans in my head and plans for putting dinner in the crock for tonight.
I really felt like I had my stuff together!!!
Got home and started green beans for dinner. I was prepping my crock meal as they cooked before I grilled the pork chops that were to accompany the beans. After getting my crock meal prepared (btw - it is cooking in my office and smells delicious!) I opened the pork chops that I had bought (marked down) on Monday. UUUUGGGGHH - they were spoiled! SERIOUSLY? In just 2 days??? Now what? The chicken I had is now in the crock covered in seasonings for today and all I have is green beans. <Insert your favorite 4 letter word here>
Now what? Cheese sandwich and green beans? GROSS! I open my fridge- nothing appealing, cabinet... same. Freezer - everything is frozen. FISH STICKS!!!! I called an audible and made all 6 fish sticks for K and me. Not the big ones, but the little skinny ones Dinner was not exactly what I had planned but it turned out okay. We feasted on 3 fish sticks and green beans
The best compliment was K's response. He said "I know you love me... because if you didn't you would have made the stinky chops and said 'you know, I think i will just have beans for dinner - you take the second for lunch tomorrow' and sent me on my way with the rancid pork and laughed at my food poisoning."
On the weight loss front - I still have not weighted from thanksgiving. I have not been logging properly, but I have been doing well. My snacking has reduced significantly and I feel my choices have been better. Retraining the brain can be so difficult, but it will happen!!!
Does anyone have an awesome weekend instore that they would like to share?4 -

Weigh Day Thursday
PW: 379.8

Of all the things about weight loss that makes me crazy is sticking to plan and having these weird water weight fictionalizations. Intellectually I get it but argh!7 -
@lindamtuck2018 dinner tonight was a lentil marinara sauce over zoodles from the Cookie and Kate website, adding Parmesan. I used a jar of Rao’s tomato sauce to make the sauce rather than making the tomato sauce from scratch to save time. It is basically a meatless Bolognese.2
-
@CharlesScott78 could not agree with you more! It takes all my strength on those days even though I intellectually know it is just the water weight.2

Binge eating got me this week. I have been slipping into taking my meds earlier in the evenings. This makes me super dopey and drowsy so I am more likely to binge. So I think between the binge eating disorder and the hunger from the meds I am creating the perfect storm.
My daughter comes on Monday from Scotland. I know there is eating out on the menu twice next week. That is usually good for a few pounds of salt weight for me. It will be all worth it to see little Stella.5 -

Reflecting back on the week, lots going on. Holiday stress, hubby out of town, and most importantly, I’ve been staying up too late. Mindless snacking, holiday excuse, I deserve this, etc. Part of this is water, because we ate out last night and I’m up two pounds over yesterday. My goal is to journal everything and to come up with simple healthy meals for the next week. I’ve got to nip this in the bud!7 -
Hallo all! It has been busy week but I'm loving my weightloss
PW 220lbs
CW 215lbs
It is my first 10 days back to being good, so I'm sure that weight loss is mostly water, but hey! I'll take it!
I hope everyone is well

I had a stressful few days...my kitty who is 9 mos old became anemic and almost died; $2300 later w/transfusion and bone marrow sample for testing to see what caused her to become that way; she's home now and seems fine; however, for lunch yesterday, we were at vet for 4 hours and I had a cappuccino, flaming hot cheetos and swedish fish, no restaurants around and didn't think it would take 4 hours before going home....😞4 -
