Weigh Day! Week 4
Current weight: 269
Moving average: 272.6
It's been a good week, as far as the eating. Or not eating, if you prefer. (Yeah yeah, have to eat, metabolism'll blow up, let it go it's just a turn of phrase.) Under 1500 calories is a great day, under 1600 is still pretty good. Over 2000, that's not okay. Over the past week, two days haven't been okay:
- Friday was date night; we went to Mother's, which reopened after a fire recently. I had a gigantic bowl of linguine with marinara, which was fantastic. And I had some chips and salsa, because I was starving. I regret nothing.
- Trudy's has a weekend brunch buffet. I thought I could be reasonable. I was wrong. (I forgot to put the fruit I had on there, so it wasn't quite as bad as it seems, but it's still pretty bad.) Buffet wins again. Curses.
This week's day off: Salt Lick barbeque on Friday. Oh yes.
I'm marginally ashamed to admit this, but I kinda geek out on getting the spreadsheet to look the way I want it to: colors to indicate how the days are, running averages for the week that automatically doesn't include days that I haven't entered yet...it's like programming for people who don't think they can program (even though I think I can, I just don't have the education). It scratches an itch that I forget I have sometimes, to fix problems and find elegant solutions. If finances didn't make me want to stab myself in the ear with a pencil, I would've made a hell of an MBA. Or at least an accountant. Not enough buttons there, anyway, and I don't like ties.
