20 April 2024
I gained 1.6 pounds this week. I also ate approximately 80 calories extra per day. Certainly to be expected.
Areas of improvement for me: I need to not purchase any peanut butter for awhile. I seem to be eating it often and it is calorie dense. Not a good idea for me! This is in combination with eating out. I was gone from home for two days and was eating out. Definitely high calorie as we were eating East Indian food and I had two fancy coffees during that time. There were also some desserts eaten.
Next week I am subbing two days. I will need to pack a lunch both days as that will keep the calories down. I see one other day where breakfast and lunch will be eaten out. This is the last week home before I head to Portugal.
This past week was a busy one. I had a neighbour come in and mow down some heavy grass areas with a big machine. My granddaughter stayed with me a couple of days. My granddaughter and I loaded and emptied two truck loads of shelving from my father in law's to my house. I have been making sure the Used Book Sale, a Casino event and reporting to the local municipalities is all organized before I leave on my trip, one evening meeting and proctoring apprenticeship exams. I had a nibble at selling my father in law's house but it fell through. Today I am meeting a friend for lunch who I haven't seen in 5 years.

gaining 1.6 lb a week
13 April 2024
I am pleased to have lost weight this week! Eating yesterday was really high and yet weighed in a pound less than the day before. Never ceases to amaze me.
Packed up my granddaughter as she has finished her first year at university!
Off to yoga this morning and volunteering at the Trade Fair for Restorative Justice.

losing 0.8 lb a week
06 April 2024
It is good to see a loss this week. It was quite a range in weight this week - I was as low as 205.0 and as high as 208.2. The average for the week was 206.4. Generally the week had a lot of hills and valleys as far as weigh in went.
Calorie wise it looks like I was about 15 calories per day higher than my preference. Truly not bad. The result feels 'right' as to how many calories and the loss. My eating was fairly consistent from one day to the next in that I wasn't eating in highs and lows. Just generally eating on the high end of my 'window'.
This week was a week of wrapping up big projects.
I had an auction house come pick up the last of my father in law's belongings on Tuesday. I figure we had sold somewhere between 80% to 90% of his stuff ahead of time. What was left had to be tetras-ed into a 24 foot trailer! That is a lot of stuff! I was so glad to see that truck and trailer drive away! It is all gone!! Beyond exciting as it has been a one year job. I had an appraiser in yesterday. Getting ready to have the house put onto the market.
The Women's Shelter job is also coming to a close. We are accepting women and families as of this past Thursday. I stopped in to sign checks (over $60 000 worth!!) While I was there I took a tour of the place. It looks wonderful. Next Tuesday I will be presenting to the Rotary Club on the project and the Shelter in general. Then it will be finalizing the finances, a round of thank yous to the local municipalities and that will be it!
Tomorrow my granddaughter turns 19. I will drive to Grande Prairie (2.5 hour) and have lunch with her. Maybe my sister and daughter will come with. My grandson is likely coming too.

losing 1.4 lb a week
30 March 2024
I hate gaining weight no matter what the circumstances. I knew this week and some was going to be challenging. I was in Edmonton for 4 days and have been in town at my father in laws for 4 more days. Eating has been somewhat erratic.
I have been having to do a lot of my 'best guess' on counting calories. I do try to allot for the tendency to think (or hope?) it is less than it is. Generally what that turned out as is around 60 calories more per day in the last week. Maybe it was more? Perhaps. The gain of 2.4 is substantial.
In the foreseeable future- I am packing up my father in law's and it is looking promising that the packing should be complete as of Monday or Tuesday. Then I will call the online auction company to come pick up what is left. There was a flurry of a couple of families purchasing a bunch even as I was packing! All good, I likely got more than I will at auction! This will take off a lot of town time. The Women's Shelter is looking like it will be settling back to normal. Another one that was bringing me to town a lot. I would like to get back to 'normal' since I will be travelling with the family for the first two weeks of May. We are going to Portugal.
I had a special experience this past week. My husband was very much into the Blues. He was a part of a local music society that is responsible for bringing live music into our community. He encouraged a musician to put a band together and come play. This band that was expected to be a 'one-off' celebrated 20 years last weekend! I was invited to come since my husband and I had been instrumental in getting the band started and also helped them financially with their first two albums. They played to two sold out shows in downtown Edmonton. The crowd was on fire both nights and the band really gave us a fantastic show both nights. This band will be playing at my 65th birthday celebration on July 5. So incredibly cool!!

gaining 2.4 lb a week
23 March 2024
This has been a crazy couple of weeks. I haven't checked in for two weeks. Last week I was at 206.0 but was literally running out the door to get to the garage sale we did. This week I am a bit less than that as of last Wednesday at 205.2. Today is Saturday and I don't know what the scale is at as I have been in the city since Thursday morning. I suspect I am up just by the difficulty of figuring out what I have eaten since it is mostly restaurant food plus I tend to indulge in interesting food when I am in the city which often means higher calorie foods.
Two weeks ago I was at an evening meeting and the next morning went to High Level with my son for a three day (all restaurant food) economic conference. We got home late but in time for a blanket exercise my sister was presenting - it was my son's first one. The next morning I was in town to attend to some accountant meetings (3), and be interviewed by the radio station. The weekend was a successful but exhausting garage sale. We had a full house of around 20-30 people in a constant stream. Last week I helped my granddaughter report a fender bender and prepared book work for meetings for later that week, then it was meetings, accepting a large donation doing the picture piece for their media release and Jive dancing. Then swimming, more meetings, and running a portion of a zoom meeting for Alberta Health Services. Packing and driving 6 hours to the city. Yesterday was City chores and today I am in a yoga and meditation retreat. So weight and food choices have been definitely iffy!
I anticipate back to normal next Saturday with a 'real' weigh in.
