Comments:

Thursday was a bad day for absurd reasons. I'm living with gracious hosts as I've mentioned before, away from my family. But these folks can be pretty aggressive, and I'm too shy to hurt feelings by being insistent that "no, I had dinner or am simply not eating at the moment." On Thursday I was offered food, *actually said no,* and the response was "nope, you're having this." This is partly a cultural thing, I think. I just have to get better at putting my foot down.

At least I've been rocking the steps like a boss. I shouldn't be wasting progress even with a crappy past three days because I've actually been in a calorie deficit every day (because of all the stepping). Friday I hit a high a 12k steps. Which might have been because I got lost in the mall's parking garage. Maybe.

Some Stats:

Calorie burn, 30 day average: Just a under 3100. This is quite good. Past week: 2800.
Calorie Consumption Avg., past 8 days: 2400.

So I should still, despite my stumbles, be on pace to lose a pound a week.
