Heart Trouble after V'day

Sometimes life is not all about me.
Brian is a little stressed out right now. For anyone who cares and doesn't know, he has a bicuspid aortic heart valve. Everyone is supposed to have 3 and 2 just doesn't work quite right. You can live with this problem for quite a while but eventually you need a heart valve replacement. He had a recent Echo and he won't know the results until his appointment next week, Tuesday. He is stressed that he will need open heart surgery soon. He also has to decide if he wants a mechanical valve and be on blood thinners the rest of his life or have a bovine or pig valve which will likely require replacement in 10-15 years. He will also be on lifting restrictions for 6 weeks in which he can't lift either of the children. All this is still up in the air until his appointment on Tuesday.

Ok, now about me.
Weigh in Today
162 lbs

This is not too surprising really. I have NOT been pigging out on anything and have been very moderate in my diet but still have to be really strict to lose weight. This is so frustrating because now it's down to the little things I have to pay close attention too. This is hard for me.
Some areas to work on:
NF milk - I've been using 2% in my coffee
Not eating any of the kids left overs
Not eating as much dinner
Eating less on the weekends especially PB and big breakfasts
Eating less snacks around the hospital even just 1-2 little chocolates or sm pc cake at lunch
Try writting down exactlly what I eat as I go so I know the little things to cut back on

This seems a little strict but I am going to work very hard at this. I really don't want to get stuck at 162 lbs. I'll never get to use my Starbucks Gift Certificates, if don't get to 160 at least and that is still 20 lbs from the ultimate goal of 140 lbs. 140 is going to be super tough but I am still going to try.
