Going to try and go a week again without weighing in again, hopefully be around 147 even in five days. I'm pretty sure I'm staying around 1100-1300 calories the last week or so a day- but only been loosely keeping track in my head. Today I know I went over though (although hopefully not over maintenance). We baked some super yummy gluten free oatmeal and chocolate chip cookie bars yesterday.... and we ate all but one by tonight. Whoops! In my defense it wasn't just me eating them =p But I ate more then I should have, they were really good though!
We moved that niece who was going to move into our rental house while it was on the market (and can't til we get rid of the squaters) into our spare bedroom (and her furniture into the unfinished part of our basement for storage). I love our landlord, we called him this week and asked if she could stay for a month or so in our spare bedroom because she was going to be between leases (her lease is up July 1st and she'd already given notice last month after we gave the non renewal of lease notice to our tenants/now squaters in May). Didn't want to burden him with why so just kept it short and sweet- she's between leases, we aren't subletting (we aren't going to charge her rent until she's actually moved into the other house. She offered but it seems wrong to charge family/friends for staying in our spare room =p). Although I think our landlord probably suspects because we got the recommendation for the eviction lawyer we are using from the department manager that is directly under my husband- the one who we didn't know knew our landlord but turns out they are not only both friends but went into the rental business at the same time. Our landlord told us that that her staying was totally fine, he appreciated us asking and we'd been awesome tenants. Always nice to hear lol. I wish we could rent to us o.0 So for now everything is as taken care of as possible on that front.
Not tracking is helping with keeping stress down and by keeping the weight loss goal in mind I feel I'm still eating reasonably. I actually feel like it's been easier the last couple weeks then it was the last month or so while tracking and being so stressed out dealing with this rental stuff. The fact that I dropped a pound in the first week of not tracking and just trying to eat reasonable without calorie counting makes me feel that this is working (when I was bouncing within the 149-152 range and back for weeks befor while trying to track). So I'm just going to stick with this plan, try to stay off the scale daily and down to once a week for a bit (I joined the no scale for a month challenge, but for now just working on baby steps lol- get use to once a week first).
It's almost Midnight here so HAPPY SUNDAY & HAPPY MONDAY ;-) Hope you all had a great weekend!
