Up again, back over 440. Barely. Again, not surprised – ate a lot of bulky food and drank a lot of water.
It’s Easter. Aside from eggs (uncolored), there’s no traditional Easter yummies in the house: no Peeps, no chocolate bunnies. Marie’s down sick; her stomach giving her serious trouble, much like I was last Sunday. She improves as the day goes on.
We’re invited to my sister’s for dinner, so I budget my other meals to make way for whatever they’re serving. If it’s pizza, I’m not sure what I’ll do, but it turns out to be roast beef, broccoli, mashed potatoes and gravy (which I tend not to eat lots of), and Darrell’s notoriously tasty dinner rolls. Marie had bought angel food cake for dessert, which I declined.
When we arrived home, our neighbor had made us some gluten-free carrot cake. I did give in and have one. One was enough.
It was a T25 rest day, so there was not much exercise beyond walking around and standing for an hour while I taught at church. (If I sweat, I count it.) I hit the calorie target, but the big meal was too big a chunk of the day’s total. But, I’d call it a success.
Early to bed. Week two starts Monday.
