No news is Good news!

The good news first! I have heard nothing from my doctor. Remember, she said that after my test results came back, IF she felt I needed to make a change in my diet, she would email me. Since I have not heard from her, I think she agrees with me. 202 is not “out the roof”. I do still intend to monitor more closely what I am eating. For one thing, I've not been having sausage for breakfast every morning. I will still eat it. Just not every day.

The bad news is I still haven't lost the rest of that 10 pounds I gained in Austin.   I've only dropped 1.4 more  pounds so I still have another 1.6 pounds to go. I have these next 2 days off work and I am seriously considering OMAD. Well, actually probably more like 2MAD because I do still intend to have my Caramel Coffee for breakfast. (165 calories) One Meal A Day while working that 12 hour shift is a lot more difficult to stick to.   I have 4 breaks plus my lunch - so that's 5 times to sit in the breakroom and not eat!  I generally snack on cheese but maybe it's time I rethink that.  Sometimes just switching things up a bit makes a big difference.

Saturday I had 1070 Calories and my macros were pretty close to target:

Sunday was 1118 but I should have tried to get my macros closer to target  I was over on the protein. and carbs - and under on my fat.

But then Sunday was 1599 - and I even skipped the protein shake at breakfast, drinking nothing but Black Coffee with a bit of stevia.    That crockpot pizza is good stuff but should probably be saved for an OMAD day. But at least my macros were closer to target again.  

As I said, I am off work the next 2 days, so I won't be getting as many steps in.  We intend to do some shopping today ~ so I should get a few more today than I will tomorrow.  Then it's back to work on Thursday, Friday and overtime Saturday.  So perhaps after the next 5 days the scale will finally be back where I want it to be.
