Mostly Gone

Had a nice little bounce back from last week's 2.2 lb. gain. I got rid of 1.8 of it. I'm very happy with this result, considering it came after 2 potlucks and my in-laws' visit (I made homemade apple crisp--YUMMY!), which I am still in the midst of. This brings my total loss to exactly 43 pounds gone. Feels great.

This weekend is fraught with peril. Today is the Russian Festival, which I go to every year. Tonight we are taking the inlaws out to seafood for their birthdays, anniversary, etc. Tomorrow is book club.

Still, I think I will do pretty well. The book club is folding and only 3 or 4 of us will be attending, so there shouldn't be TOO much food available. I've started really putting myself on a schedule this week. Breakfast, snack between 10 and 11, lunch, snack between 4 and 5, dinner, snack between 8 and 9. I'm trying to regulate better, rather than binging 3 times a day. And I have to say, I've felt much better.

Also, discovered a new type of apple that is to-die-for: honeycrisp. I've never had these apples before, but they are SO good. A little tart, a little sweet, very crisp. Try them! It's like eating apple cider.
