Weigh In Monday # 29

The sun was out in PA and the air had a tiny, tiny hint of softness. Perhaps we do have a chance of spring soon.

I did manage to get back on track this past week and shed 3 of the pounds I gained. I'm glad of that, though I must admit to being weary of treading water since January. I keep juggling the same 2 - 4 lbs. from the "gain" to the "lose" column! At least I am maintaining and not gaining. That in itself is an accomplishment for me.

This afternoon, around 4pm, I was getting hungry. And, my "tired of working" self whispered, "you've been good today, go get some chips and diet coke." Mmm, perfect to get through the last two hours of work. So, I went to the gift shop only to find a crowd around the snack food rack. I stood there for 5 minutes, trying to see around everyone, and finally figured out they only had jalapeno and salt & vinegar chips. Yuk! Then, I started chuckling. Surely, this was nature's way of telling me that I don't need chips. Instead, I went into the coffee shop, got that soda and a tossed salad!

Yaay for the Chips Goddess, who watches over us in our moments of weakness. :)

Kudos to you on a fantastic week! You've got to feel great with that NSV-chips victory behind you!

I'll chime in with nature here: You don't need chips!

Good for you for opting for a salad!

First time here, would like to say hi! I read your About Me on the side bar and am so encouraged by your total weightloss in a year. I really am hoping that I can report the same type of success this time next year. Congrats on your loss this week AND for listening to nature and choosing the salad over chips!

Anyway glad to read you got rid of three of them. And way to go on the salad and diet pop for a snack.
