NOTES: Today was a cold and drizzly day, but it did not make me crave food like I’m used to.  Was that always just an excuse or am I just not hungry today?  I also only had half of my oatmeal before I was full.  I got a soup prepped for tomorrow and most of the week’s oatmeal done.  I’m feeling productive, but I have also felt like I’m holding onto water this weekend, so I worry that my progress will be delayed.  It wouldn’t be the first time that has happened; there have been a number of weeks when I seem to have not lost by the numbers, but the following week I’ve almost lost too much.  I guess that’s one of the drawbacks of doing my weigh-ins at the same time of day each week.  It just is what it is at that time.  As long as the numbers trend downward, I am still happy.
