Good Sunday Afternoon!
I am quite late in jumping in with last week’s
Weekly WI. My days off just flew by and
here it is Sunday about to start a new WW week.
I lost 2.8 pounds last week. Taking a step back from tracking all my zero point
foods has been nice. I am doing that
again this week. Since this week is also busier with more social outings, I
have been focusing more on the quality of food vs. trying to eat ZPF so I don’t
go over budget. If I go over, I go
over. Instead, I want to fuel my body
with healthy low point foods.
Tuesday, I had a new crown put on my tooth after
my old one broke eating a tortilla chip before Halloween. It was over 10 years old and yet…I had to pay
a fortune! I now have a second purple-ish
crown in my mouth. Later that night I had
my lodge meetings. Thankfully they didn’t
have to numb my mouth for the crown replacement.
Wednesday was a volunteer day at the Meridian
Senior Center as part of the Beacon Grant.
We need to log 24+ service hours with meals on wheels. We also served lunch. I really enjoy visiting the senior center as
they have live music during lunch.
Thursday, I attempted to visit my friend at the Idaho Veterans Home as part of the Adopt a Vet program. He wasn’t feeling social so after a quick hello, I ran some errands before relaxing a bit at home. I met some WW friends for lunch at Old Country Sausage than went with Stacey to the Caldwell Elks Lodge meeting. Sadly, they changed the meeting date and we missed it! We had some beers at the Caldwell Lodge then visited the Nampa Lodge before heading home for an earlier evening.
Friday was our annual Veterans Appreciation
Dinner and program at our lodge with over 150 in attendance! I helped in the dining room with the Columbia
High School students who are part of the Nampa FFA. What a fun group. The guest speaker was incredible, and we had
a 103-year-old female WWII veteran as one of our special guests. She was a combat nurse.
Saturday, I took the day off work to help with
Rake Up Nampa where we wrapped up early.
We had a beautiful day with sunshine and perfect temps for a day
outdoors. After I attended a celebration
of life for my dear WW friend and college Donna Burch. She lost her battle with pancreas cancer only
19 days after diagnosis. She was one of many
WW coaches that are a big part of my journey.
Whew…I’m tired recounting all that! I am not sure what the scale will show this
week as I am over my weekly points. I
have also only logged a few days of activity as I keep working towards eight walking
workouts this month.
