Weekly update

I bounced all around this week, but averaged out to a weight of 305.6- a 1 pound loss, and that’s something I’d take week in, week out.
I’ve been diligent about tracking all of my calories this past week. The weekends are harder, naturally. Saturday clocked in at 3,044 calories, and Sunday was 3,797. Curse you girl scouts and your samoas!
I’ve got to do better this week – a two pound loss isn’t too much to ask. Back to the crudites and the skyscrapers. I’m feeling good.

Had a pretty good day yesterday – ate reasonably until it was time to cook dinner, then I got into a vicious pre-dinner snack / dinner / post-dinner snack trap. For compromise, I’m trying to at least have healthier snack options available at night (Raisin Bran is my favorite).
Climbed that same 30-story building today – it’s a gorgeous art-deco, with marble staircases and wooden railings all the way up. Plus, since I was the only one there, I was even able to read about 30 pages while I was walking – don’t try that on the sidewalk!
While I’m still weighing in every day, I’ve decided to report only on mondays.

What i like about the hacker’s diet is the 5-day rolling average. I can have a day like yesterday (burger, reuben, a donut or three), and it doesn’t destroy my weigh-in (it just gives me a dirty look and reminds me to get back at it).
Today – started off with oatmeal and dried cranberries. Drinking lots of water, but with a new twist today. I work on the 5th floor, and I’ve decided to use the 10th floor bathroom. That guarantees a little activity spread out throughout the day. At lunch I’ll have a nice walk, and think about whether I’m really hungry or not.
Update: Climbed a 30-story building at lunch. Took it nice and slow, but now every time I look at the skyline I can think, “Yep. Climbed that one.”
