Crap. Back above my goal again. My body truly wants to be fat. My tummy is so distended. I carry all my weight in my belly. And this is my last weigh-in for two weeks due to my upcoming trip to Seattle. I was hoping to lose more weight before I went, but I guess that was not to be. It means even more work when I get back.

Friday Brad and I did a night hike. It was such a long drive out there and Brad takes the winding back way along the hill's ridge. I have no pictures of our hike because it now gets dark at 5 and that's about when we finally set off. We didn't ever find the trail I wanted to do, but we found the Selby Trail, a fairly flat trail that runs along the ridge and is pretty straight. 55 minutes out and 55 minutes back. We only covered about 4 1/2 miles because the darkness slowed us down even though we had flashlights. The trail went on so we may pick up where we left off at some point.


I bought another refill pack of Alli on Saturday. I'm going through it fast because I take extra on Saturday to help counteract the huge amount of fat I eat that day.

I admit to way overdoing the food on Saturday. Too many cookies, too many Cheese-It's, three mini Reese's cups, too much wine, popcorn at the movies along with a protein bar, and then dinner at Fuddruckers after. I had the 1/2 pound Ostrich burger, low-carb style with no bun and a salad on the side (they actually offer this as a menu choice). I had it with one of those Amstel Light beers that's supposed to be really low in calories. I had such a great night; I didn't want it to end.

Brad and I saw Into the Wild. It was a good movie and didn't seem to be 2 1/2 hours long. The book was better. I highly recommend reading the book and then seeing the movie. The movie makes a lot more sense if you already have the story in mind. Otherwise things may move to fast and it could be easy to lose the thread of the story. Buy the book, read the book. Then go see the movie. I'll give the movie 3 out of 4 stars.

Went to the gym today. Did one hour of upper body weights and core work, and then 30 minutes on the stairmaster (mostly at level 6!) trying to burn though my glycogen stores from overdoing it yesterday. I missed my bus from the train station and it only runs every 30 minutes of Sunday so I just walked the rest of the way to work. I never saw the bus so I guess I beat it. :)

This week will not be week 36 since I am leaving for Seattle on Wednesday and fly back Sunday so there will be no weigh-in either. Week 36 will start when I return on November 18 and my next official weigh-in will be November 25. With two Thanksgiving dinner between then and now - and several days off-plan - I expect to show a pretty good rebound on the scale, one of the reasons I have been dieting my butt off during the week.

I will have no computer access while I am gone so I won't be updating.

I took only one photo this weekend - Abby laying on the cat tree.
