gaining 0.0 lb a week

I've been so busy for the past few weeks which led to some bad decisions. I went up to 204 for a few days. Then I went to visit family for a few days and between chasing people down at work, chasing toddlers and skipping breakfast to chase toddlers, I lost 6 pounds in 10 days.
I think the moral of the story here is that I need to get pregnant so I can have a few of my own toddlers to chase around.

There's something intensely satisfying about using leftover ingredients in your fridge and pantry and creating something tasty and healthy. Too many times the older items in the fridge get tossed without a second thought, and given the size of the grocery budget, this is such a waste. So I've made a concerted effort to find creative uses for my leftovers.
The other day, I used a mango leftover from a dinner recipe to make a smoothie at breakfast. Pot roast routinely becomes beef enchiladas. Last night, I turned a three month old sheet of puff pastry into miniature apple pies. Today's foray into culinary recycling involved some Trader Joe's apricots. They didn't end up being a very tasty snack on their own, but I was hesitant to throw them out because they were pricey! I ended up throwing them in the freezer to keep them from rotting and this morning I tossed them with the tiny bit of raw sugar in the bottom of the bag, some leftover maple sugar from a long devoured pie, and a package of almonds from Christmas baking and made a delicious crumble. Tonight I plan on making puff pastry pot pies with all the vegetables in the refrigerator about to become mush and the white wine about to become vinegar.
And then I'll need to go grocery shopping.
As expected, the general abuse of my work week paired with a lack of gym time put me up one pound. No matter. This week will be better. I did about half an hour of gardening this morning and my flowers are really looking nice. Someday, when I have a house with a yard, I will have a garden to be reckoned with, and an exercise related calorie deficit to match.
And speaking of calorie deficits, I finally broke down and bought a Body Media Fit and it should get here Thursday so I can finally take a long, hard look at my calorie expenditure and adjust from there.

I had a minor setback today resulting from work stress.
I've been trying to get to the gym every day because I've been chained to my desk far more than usual lately taking care of some administrative functions and I get the sneaking suspicion that the lack of movement is going to show a weight gain next time I step on the scale. Unfortunately, my attempts to get to the gym have been thwarted at every turn by my coworkers who have been scheduling me for appointments beyond my regular work hours. This wouldn't necessarily be a problem as I have extended my work day in the past to accommodate people with inflexible schedules, but they're not even asking me if it's okay anymore.
Today was going to be my first opportunity to get to my evening water class since Saturday and I have all my equipment in the car. Then I returned to the office from an appointment and found a new appointment on my calendar for 4:45 ("Since you'll already be in that neighborhood anyway.") on the East side of the city, progressing to a location downtown, ending with me 35 minutes away from my 5:00 class at 5:15 PM.
That really irritated me. Enough so that I took a lunch break away from the office which I'm not prone to doing. I went to the grocery store to stock up on fruit, then decided that I needed a cookie, so I bought a package of Raspberry Newtons. Then I passed through the snack aisle and grabbed a bag of BBQ Kettle Chips. On the drive back to the office, I had 5 of the Newtons and about 15 of the chips before throwing it all in the backseat. (Out of sight, out of mind?)
Having since added the calories from my anger binge, I found that it wasn't that big a setback since I'm still significantly under my calories for the day, but it's calories that I blindly crammed into my mouth in the face of stress overload. At least I didn't cheat on the vegetarian diet by scarfing a hamburger, right?
Okay. I feel better now. Back into battle. Today is another day...
