My weight went up by two pounds. There is absolutely no mystery. This week I ate in my 'zone' once the other 6 days I was either 'over' or 'really over'. On average I was 90 calories per day over my highest part of my zone.

This week is a busy one and I will have to be cognizant about my food choices as this is a trend that must be stopped! I have 4 days next week when I will be in town which is a kryptonite situation. Truly will need to make a decent plan around that.

I was excited yesterday to finally have my foot calluses dealt with. I had a corn in the middle of the ball of my left foot which meant that it felt like I had a rock in my shoe so every step I took was painful. It is absolutely lovely to have it gone. I have a plan in place so I don't have this problem again. I also had an acupuncture treatment for my wonky right leg and lower back ache. This morning I am pain free! My acupuncturist trained in China for 15 years and is extremely talented. She spent the first 5 years learning Mandarin so she could learn how!

Our Thanksgiving meal went off without a hitch! The turkey was cooked to perfection in my woodstove. My 10 guests really enjoyed the meal which is the whole point, eh? I plan to make stew this weekend. I have already made the bone broth. Now it is time to add the veggies, barley and meat.

I am down 0.2 pounds this week. Frankly it has been a range of 1.2 pounds. Everything from dead even to 1.2 pounds down. I definitely ate over my intended amount yesterday. No particular reason, just did.

My biggest area of eating this week has been around homemade bread. I made some bread for the turkey stuffing (this weekend is Canadian Thanksgiving) and definitely enjoyed the fresh bread. Then I realized that I was going to be low on bread and made another batch. I have committed to giving away 3 loaves tomorrow (my granddaughter, my sister and my daughter). That will definitely help a bit.

Today I am making the pies and roasting the vegetables. Tomorrow I will be firing up the wood cookstove and getting the turkey in by 11 am. Then making the fancy white buns my grandchildren prize for eating with gravy and the potatoes. We are having 4 extra guests - two friends of my daughter's and two from my sister's fellow's family. That will make supper for 11!

This week has been about my father in law's house and prepping for Thanksgiving.

Funny how the brain works! I was 0.6 pounds less than I am today for the last two mornings- I sure wanted to write that weight down this morning. However, that really defeats the purpose, doesn't it? Fact is I am 1.0 pounds down this morning. So that is what I am recording!

In the last 5 weeks I am down 0.2 pounds. That is disheartening. I have 8 weeks to lose 8 pounds if I am going to make my quarter of a year goal. Clearly, I will need to skiddle skaddle if I am going to make it. One pound per week is more than reasonable however I only lost 0.2 pounds in the last 5 weeks. That, alone is telling a story.

Last week we completed round 2 of the garage sale at my father in law's. It was definitely successful. This last week I have been at the house as people have been picking up furniture they purchased. House is starting to get a bit emptier. Not sure when the next push is going to happen. We are all pretty tired from the last push. We will start again to price and set things out either next week or the week after. It is Canadian Thanksgiving next weekend so definitely not running the actual sale then!

This past week I was able to get some thorough cleaning done at my home, chaired the Women's Shelter Board AGM, planned Thanksgiving as it will be at my home, subbed at the school yesterday, was at my father in law's as people picked up their larger purchases and today I am doing yoga with my sister leading the class and walking 5 km with my sister and daughter in support of Aboriginal Truth and Reconciliation Day.

I am up a pound from a week and a half ago. Last time I weighed in on Thursday morning before going on a trip until Wednesday night. During that time I ate at restaurants three times a day. I tried to guess on calories - I guessed low because when I got home I had gained 4 pounds. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday I have been eating restaurant food for lunch and supper and had breakfast at home. I managed to bring it down 3 pounds in the last two days. Some of that is just getting home to somewhat regular routines.

This coming week will be about eating at home starting on Sunday. I have a couple of days in the up coming week where I will be eating a meal away from home. Not like the last two weeks though!

I have had a busy couple of weeks. I think I referenced the road trip last entry - basically 500 miles from home to the farthest point but with the side trips likely closer to 600 miles. This has played havoc with my daily exercising. I was driving, visiting and at meetings and appointments none of which made exercising convenient. Good news- my skin scan showed no new melanoma! Wednesday I drove 6 hours then I stopped at my father in laws and put in two hours to help my daughter and her friend to get the final things ready for the Garage and Estate Sale on Thursday. They had done an incredible amount of work while I was away! On Thursday I subbed at the school and then we did the first day of the sale from 4 until 8. Yesterday we worked from noon until six. Unfortunately my daughter got the flu so it was me and her friend plus 4 teenagers. Today is the last day of the sale from noon until 6. Hopefully my daughter will be well enough to help. The Garage Sale consists of the entire two car garage lined with shelving - about 4 aisles- plus the whole main floor of the house and some selected rooms upstairs and in the basement and the backyard! You can see we needed lots of workers!!

I am down a pound as of this morning. I have had a few swings down and then rebounds since Saturday no weight was higher than last week but as of yesterday I was 1.2 pounds lower than this morning. However, today is the day I am doing this so I have entered the one pound loss.

I am traveling today. I drove 6.5 hours today with a few stops on the way so basically was in the car from 9am until 5:30. I am definitely tired! I had breakfast at home, a date square, tea, fresh pineapple, an apple, a mandarin orange and stopped for a roast beef sandwich on rye. I managed not to choose a variety of high sugar go to foods that I often have when I am driving. However, I figure I have about 200 calories available for supper tonight. To my surprise the air BnB that I rented doesn't have an actual kitchen so no stove and no kitchen sink. I can't see making oatmeal tomorrow morning so I will need to stop somewhere for breakfast. It is a two hour drive tomorrow to see my girlfriend. After lunch I will drive 1.5 hours to the city. Tomorrow looks like a long day!

My plan while I am away from home this entire week, is to choose the best choice of the options available. So fruit instead of a peanut butter marshmallow square - that sort of thing (one of today's choices!). I have lots of situations ahead where food is going to be provided for me. I will need to make careful choices.
