117.0: Battle of The Scales

I didn't weigh in on the other one today 'cause hubby went into work late so he was still home and I don't like to appear obsessive about anything food or scale related around him.  But yesterday the scale in our bathroom that only measures in whole and half numbers was 117 and the one in the other bathroom was 116.2.  If the other bathroom scale was correct then the one in our bathroom should have read 116.5.  The other bathroom scale has been consistently lower all week.  I've been contemplating if I should switch scales and start using the other as my primary weigh in scale.  It is more precise since it measures every tenth but on the other hand I don't want to start obsessing over every tenth when obsessing over 1/2 tenths seems to be enough to deal with.  I think it also ends up causing me to push myself more because I see no progress until I reach a 1/2 pound point and can't get happy over being down tenths. 

It is truly a gift to be 117 after what I ate yesterday.  I was starving that morning hence the extra crackers with Peanut Butter at breakfast time.  Then, Chicken Casadillas!  Love 'em!  But each tortilla is 130 cals and when you add in the cheese that really adds up.  It's the highest cals I've had all week.  I can say this 'cause I didn't gain but on the one hand I think it was good to up the cals for just one day so my body doesn't feel to starved.  It could have turned out very badly with my body hanging onto it since I haven't been feeding it too much.  Anyhow, the meal was good.  I felt satisfied and content but not stuffed afterwards.  It gave me some relief from the hunger and I didn't have to pay for it on the scale.  But-I don't think I can eat.  Quite the contrary I know I have to watch those cal's like a hawk and I will just consider myself lucky after yesterday. 

Thank goodness hubby said he didn't want any tortilla chips which was great because that eliminated the temptation for me.  He also says he wants to start eating low carb.  Which is AWESOME!  That means for dinner we will have a meal like Chicken breast or some other protein and lots of veggies.  I can't think of anything else to eat on a low carb diet.  So far everything I've made mostly includes pasta just because I don't know how to make much of anything else.  I'm not the best cook and usually those are just easy.  I'll start looking up low carb recipes and that will be what we'll shop for next time we go to the grocery store.
