Slowly but Surely....

Did manage to lose another pound this week at weigh-in. Felt as though I had made a great effort, and then I realized that we had been out for more meals than I realized, and this is an area which gives me great problems. No matter how I think I am doing in terms of portion control, etc., it seems to get the better of me. So, I should not be surprised at this very gradual weight loss. The fact that the scale showed up four pounds heavier after the June feasting, (I got away with it for a few weeks! Didn't show up on the scale!)  means that I have been fighting to get that off. Used to be a whole lot easier to take weight off! What is that about? Has my metabolism slowed down to NOTHING in my "old age"? Could it be that my poor body has been on diets so often that it is not going to be fooled into giving up weight so easily this time? (I think my first diet started when I was below my ideal weight! What was I thinking??)
   My goal this week is to track at least four of the days. Write it before you bite it....we'll see!
