Day 276: 269 lbs

A bit of backslipping on the weight yesterday, since I gained two pounds.

We had dinner and my in-laws last night, which can be a diet challenge. I went into it with lots of calories remaining for the day and ate a fairly substantial dinner. The problem is that I can't measure any portions, and so I don't know how much I'm really eating. And as I've said before, I had an amazing capacity to fool myself into thinking I ate less than I actually did.

So I think I did OK last night. Breakfast and lunch were scrupulously measured and portioned, and I did not eat any snacks at all.

Tonight we're going to a picnic dinner for a group my wife is involved in, and that should be a little easier than dinner at the in-laws. At the picnic there will be lots of tempting food (which I need to avoid completely), but I should be able to pick and choose what I'll eat.
