Two And A Half Gone. in Help Me Please

I think this is the most I have lost in a week. Except for the very first week where I lost about 4 pounds. I figure if I lose a pound it means it was a good week. I do get disappointed when it’s less then a pound and I always wonder what I did wrong.
But not eating sugar and salt is getting a lot easier and even hubby is saying I don’t eat them anymore. A perfect example is the chocolate fudge cake I am going to be making for my son for his birthday and he will be taking what is left home. Because hubby isn’t really a cake person and this way it will get eaten up within hours of my son getting home because he also has a roommate. But those commercials for the fast food places and the candy and whatever else just makes my mouth water and it takes me back and I do remember how I felt and then I quickly get back to reality and l look at myself and see how much I have lost and don’t ever want to be the fat slob I once was.
Here is a question for you? How much do you think someone who is in their 50 and is 5‘6” tall should weigh without looking too skinny? I think the least I can weigh is 118 pound and I think that is way too skinny for me. There was a time when I weighted 128 pound but people said I looked gaunt. So your help would help me figure out a good weight for me to stay at forever. I thank you In advance.

Onto something else....

Today so far has turned into a nice sunny day and it feels a lot warmer but it’s still a bit too cold for me. I have noticed that when the sun is out I do feel better and a bit happier and I feel like I have more energy it’s the days that are gray and dark and miserable that I feel like this time of year will never end.
Sometime in the next two days hubby is going to go get his hair cut and I get to stay home and have some quiet time with just me and my thoughts. I like to see it when hubby and his brother spend time together but it’s always to go somewhere and so it’s not very much time together but then at least they get to see each other and talk about brother stuff.

Onto something else....

Tonight for dinner we are going to have some left overs and fish and I make this fresh spinach with a little oil and fresh garlic and it’s good and I always want more after I had my portion but then it’s gone. And one of the dishes I have left over is my rice and beans so that will take care of the carbs portion of the meal. And there is also a small amount of chili hubby can have if he wants it.
When it comes to telling him what I want for meals it doesn’t matter what I say he always or for the most part says okay. But I do like to ask him what he feels like and whatever he does say I go with that. Usually when he isn’t at work I ask him other times I just guess at what I think he would want.

Onto something else....

Next Thursday I am going to the doctors i hope he will be on time but I do know all of his patience are wanting to see him to say good buy and have a great retired life. So this appointment might take longer then it should. But he is usually pretty good about the time issues.
Other then that not much is happening it’s been a good week and I know it will be even a better week next week and in the future.

So I will stop here and start my wife’s work.....
Do have a great day…

Be Kind, Be Calm, Be Safe and Behave.
