Monday after Palm Sunday

This is me at the Pieta in April 2004. I was wearing jeans in a size four; would you believe?! Must presevere.

My mother showed up last night and spent the night, so this will be a short entry.

I forgot to weigh in this morning, but I dont think I lost any weight last week. (Note: Last week, I took my thyroid medication as prescribed.)  I was hungry everyday last week and Saturday was the worst. Pigged out all day. Ughhh...

Sunday was Palm Sunday. Went to 6:30 a.m. mass and prayed for God's help with my health and my weight-loss problems. I walked around the trail where the live-sized stations of the cross are and sat with the blessed Mother at the Pieta. It was a nice visit. Wish I had a better camera so I could take a closer shot of the blessed Mother's face. They did a very good job at creating these life-sized stations of the cross.

I didnt take my thyroid medication yesterday, and I was surprised that I did pretty good at controlling my hunger.  I will not take the medication this week. For some reason, I always seem to do better at weight-loss without it.

This week is Holy Week. On Holy Week, some Catholics sacrifice going without meat all week. When I was at the grocery store yesterday, I noticed that they have fish portions and fish sticks in frozen dinners and they are able to microwave those, so I see no reason not to do the same. I already had some fish portions in my freezer.

Today's Menu
