Ramblings

My weight this morning was 185.0. I'm happy with that. No...don't get me wrong, I'd love for it to be lower. But considering on Tuesday morning I wwas 187....I"m pretty darn tickled to be two pounds lower! I'm not doing too overly bad with eating today. I've got about 10 points for dinner...so I should be ok.

I'm actually thinking about running to the store (about 10 miles away) to pick up some coconut so that I can make some granola bars tonight. I'm just not sure I want to drive over there for coconut. hmmmmmm..... Todd won't be getting off of work until about 10 or 11...so it's not like I have to rush home for anything. I am heading to the grocery store on Sunday...so I could delay making the bars a few days and just get the coconut when I go to the store. Hmmm...I guess I'll probably decide at the moment that I get in my car and pull out of the lot after work.

In my research and looking at the possibility of a gene issue...or hormonal issue, I stumbled across another idea. Leptin. Without Leptin in our bodies, we pretty much eat non-stop...our brain doesn't get the signal for us to stop eating. So that is another option......Doesn't change much of anything..just makes me feel better knowing that this may have been something way out of my control....and knowing makes me feel better and more ready to tackle the weight again.
