I had a good weekend, not because I was super rigid in my consumption (which I wasn't at all), but because I feel my weight regulated. I was getting as low as 229-228 toward the end of last week, but it didn't feel natural. I can't explain it any better than that. The needle was back above 230 this morning for my official weigh in, but I feel a lot better than I did on Friday.
I haven't been eating well on Sundays the past few weeks and I need to get back to my Sunday Detoxes. I think part of the issue is my wife has been leaving for business each Monday for the last month or so, and a wee bit of depression sets in for both of us, leading to not so great consumption decisions. Don't get me wrong, I'm as independent as the next guy and the alone time was great the first week or so, but this is going on 5 or 6 weeks (I honestly lost count). On the bright side, her traveling gives me the opportunity to make all these spicy dishes and/or those with shellfish that she less than prefers.
Anyhow, I made a Mediteranean Shrimp Skillet dish out of Taste of Home on Saturday. It has shrimp in it so naturally my wife didn't have any, which happily leaves me with 3 more servings as left overs. Yesterday, I planned on making food for the week yesterday, but my day was actually centered around the UConn game. I made a batch of beef jerky and I also made more Sesame Noodles but with chicken. To me, this dish tastes 100x better than picking from Group A or B. I had planned to make habanero meat sauce for lunch, but I didn't get the chance, so I'll make it tonight.
Well that's the news from Southern New England. Take Care everyone.

Hey CMR! Isn't it interesting how situations/emotions alter food decisions/consumption? I totally understand that though. I hope this is something temporary for you two??? Well, seems like you've adjusted well and are still consistent during the week. Fridays look like my downfall as well and Sundays are like your so-named "Detox" days. Planning on biking again this week? Glad your week is off to a feel-good start!

Hi CMR, I used to be like you only it was my husband was gone 4 days out of
the week. He likes spicy food as well and I can't eat that. So we have to fix ours a little different. I am soooo looking forward to grilling out.
Have a good day and week .....Bren

Must be so strange to have your spouse gone for the entire week, every week. I'm sure it was a nice change of pace at first, but after a while, I don't know if I would like it. How long does this last for? Does she get to go anywhere good?? lol Your recipes sound so damn good - do you have them on here?

@Mo2G-Yes, I do. I have a few that have been awaiting approval for the last few weeks. I'm not sure how long the process takes. I've taken some recipes from Weight Watchers and the ones I take from Allrecipes dot com, Taste of Home, Kraft foods, etc, I augment to be a little healthier (Wheat instead of semolina or enriched flour, Splenda for Sugar, cut the oil in half, etc.).

This week may be her last traveling, but she won't find out until the end of the week. She may have one more. And No, it's not like she gets to go to Vegas or somewhere to escape the weather. She goes over to Rhode Island. It's not that far really, but it's far enough to stay overnight. I've actually gone to visit her for a night in the past.

Yes, Dsy I'm planning on 4 nights of riding this week, so that's somewhere around 42 miles according to Mr. Schwinn.
