59Carol's Journal, 27 January 2024

I gained 0.2 pounds this last week. I am taking it for a win!

I was in Edmonton Sunday through Wednesday. My Air BnB did not have a stove so all of my meals were eaten out. I did not stop for any 'road food' either going or coming. That is truly a first! According to my best guesstimates I ate way over my ideal calorie range - as in 150 extra calories per day. Somehow I managed to only gain 0.2 pounds. When I got home my Thursday morning weigh in I was 0.4 pounds up.

This coming week is going to be equally difficult because when I got home I received an email indicating that I need to return to Edmonton on Wednesday until Friday for a meeting with the province. They are doing a round table to discuss Women Shelter funding. I need to speak to the Minister face to face regarding the lack of funding for our Black Mold problem. Also on Monday and Tuesday I had agreed month ago to substitute teach. All of this means not eating at home and having to navigate the restaurant world. I will see about a plan to pack a lunch for Monday and Tuesday. Monday I will swim before class so breakfast will need to be figured in as well.

I am taking the fact that I navigated well this past week in that my gain was modest, that I can do so again. I am not so confident that I can eat so many extra calories and maintain the not gaining status. I will need to be diligent.
