These events take place from September 8 - September 22.
(a nod to the show "24")
My husband is out of town, and this is probably my biggest challenge yet, foodly speaking. You see, when he is home, I cook meals and eat normal food at normal times like a normal person. When he is out of town, I buy Cool Ranch Doritos, Sour Cream & Cheddar Ruffles, huge containers of Red Vines, and generally eat what I want when I want. Now that I think about it, given the amount of travel he did in the last 5-ish years, I should probably weigh about 500 lbs!
There's some exaggeration in that, but there's also a lot of truth in it. So now I have two weeks in which to "maintain discipline, soldier". And the thing is that since this is a public blog, I'm not going to post this entry until he's back home, safe and sound. I'm not a fan of advertising to the intertubes that I'm home alone.
So. He's been gone for 4 1/2 days, and I am still -- for the most part -- under control. More importantly in the self-discipline department: I've worked out every day he's been gone. I think that, more than anything, should keep me on track.
So now I'll add a couple pics I've taken recently, and save this post in my drafts :)

Oh, and I guess I'm doing mostly ok, food-wise. I'm down 36 pounds today (September 12)!
Something else, in case you missed it. This happened while he was gone:

| September 18, down 40# |
I made it to his return without gaining! Yay! And now I'm plateau'd at -40. But I'm ok with that :)
