I recently had to “return to the office”. To make things easier, I am trying to prepare things at the end of the day to make things quicker in the morning (following Anna Havron’s checklist advice). So far, doing prep the night before is working!

Thoughts on losing weight

Like many adults, I have “a few too many pounds”. I have been on Weight Watchers twice, with not too much success. A few years ago, I was able to lose 20 pounds (at the rate of about a pound a week), but I was pretty disciplined about what I was eating. I haven’t been that disciplined since that time, and it shows. Recently, I am trying to eat a smaller amount at breakfast and lunch, with a regular dinner. So far, when I stick to that, I start making progress again. The thing is to keep on track with small meals – when I get off track, weight loss slows or reverses for me. I think the main thing is to hang in there – it’s a marathon, not a sprint – it’s ok to get off track as long as I get back on track….thanks for listening.
