Weekly Weigh In: Week 22

Here it is.  Starting the last week of Phase 1.  This last week has been a roller coaster.

My first grandchild was born (at 430 in the morning ... he doesn't understand yet that Grammlee does NOT like all nighters!).  He was 5 weeks early so they are unfortunately still in the hospital.  He is doing well and adjusting to life outside the womb, but his lungs are still a tad bit underdeveloped so he is on oxygen and staying in the pediatrics ward until he can hold his O2 levels up better.

What that turned into was a lot of running back and forth to the hospital to help my daughter through the emotional roller coaster of still being at the hospital now a week later and with no ETA for going home.  Lots of take out and hospital food.  Lots of protein,  Not a lot of vegetables.  I could feel it too in not feeling quite right.  I didn't eat bad.  I avoided the pizza, pasta and ice cream bars in the freezer completely.  But the lack of veg did have an impact.  Right now I'm still feeling tired and I can only assume its from the lack of veg and the lack of fluids.  I didn't get a lot of water down either.

So this week is settling a little more.  No more melt downs means I can eat at home then go see the little boobah.  Which I enjoyed tonight.  I made my all time fave ratatouille.  That's all I had for dinner.  A big plate of roasted veg in a lovely tomato sauce.  And my oh my was it delish :)

Looking forward to being in a routine this week and then starting the new Phase 2 routine next week.

Until then ...

Week 22: -1.8
Total: -57.6
