Week 35

.72% lost this week.  Still not hitting my 1% goal.  My four week floating average is .6%.  Maybe I am finally slowing down on my rate of weight loss.  We'll see.  If that's the case, then that's ok, too.  If it takes longer, then it takes longer.  It's not like it's going to make a huge difference in 10 years if it took me 18 months or 24 months to get to my ultimate goal.  Or 36 months, for that matter. What I do care about here is making as many good choices as I can and moving forward.

Just keep swimming!

I'm also a little extra zen about this smaller-than-expected loss, because I finally broke the 100 pound mark.  I've been dancing around it for almost a month now, and that has been frustrating. So now that I've gotten through that, I'm feeling a little revitalized and better about how I'm doing.

I have to admit, I'm jonesing for McDonald's today, knowing that I'll have an hour and a half break and there's one near where I'll be.  I've got my standard plan of making dinner and going for a walk during that break.  But I want a Big Mac and a big fries and a big Coke.

In all honesty, I've been craving one!

Hey, in the October issue of Sunset, there is an article titled "Beyond the Pie" (or something like that). There are some different recipes for pumpkin (i.e. pumpkin soup...).

Yeah, I know it's crap on multiple levels. Makes no difference to the "GIMME!" part of my brain.

I'm looking forward to pumpkins, but I have a bushel of apples to deal with first . . .
