MLWF Day 65

This is the sixty fifth day in my life without food.

Well I'll be damned, I lost 3.6 lbs. this week, totally not expecting that. That's about 43.6 total having recovered from my little vacation weight gain. I'm happy.

Interesting that the topic in fat class last night was "failure recovery" or what happens after you eat that bag of chips. Again, nothing that I haven't heard before (if you fall off get back on sort of stuff) but it's always nice to hear other people with the same point of few having the same issues. That's why we have fat class I guess.

Did you know that one Krispy Kreme donut has 250 calories? No one eats just one and that adds up quickly. Did you know it takes some 87,000 calories to gain 25 lbs.? It doesn't take that make donuts, chips, glasses of wine to add up to that 87k, here we are right back to mindful eating. The "fat guru's" point was if you want to or need to eat a Snickers bar everyday (regular size not super size) just eat it, but make sure you count it in your total for the day. Sounds simple doesn't it, so why isn't it?

I'm moving forward, not telling what the next few weeks or months will bring but I am just doing the best I can.
