Debbie Cousins's Journal, 17 Feb 18

Good morning, all. My scales FINALLY moved from 206 down to 205 this morning! It was very challenging to get my calories down from an average of 2,117 (over the previous 7 days) to just under 1,600 yesterday, but I did it. I’m going to try to eat exactly the same thing today (although the tomato in the salad I just made was a little larger than the one in yesterday’s salad!) I had to make a lot of concessions to get my numbers that low. I usually eat salads with either 1/4 cup of Homemade Buttermilk Ranch dressing or a couple Tbsp. of mayonnaise, PLUS 8 black olives, 2 Tbsp. roasted sunflower seeds & 2 Tbsp. processed Pork Cracklin crumbs. Couldn’t fit ANY of that into my calorie count, but the salad was good, nonetheless: Romaine lettuce, tomato, provolone cheese, hard salami, beef bologna & black forest ham with salt & pepper. Quite tasty, in fact.

I also WANTED to have the last Orange Creamsicle Fat Bomb Jell-O Dessert Cup that I had put in the freezer to eat as ice cream, but couldn’t work that in. I DID thoroughly enjoy my piece of Brownie Cheesecake! I got up at 6am, and with the exception of 10 minutes of cooking and putting in two loads of laundry, ALL I have done so far is “Studying” – reading Journal entries, posting about the Thursday results on the DA#1 Challenge, writing a couple notes to folks, reading my Bible, and watching an informational podcast to help better understand my transgender grandson, Rory.

Right now, I FEEL like going back to bed for awhile (after being up 5 hours already). MIGHT yield to that one, but not sure yet. So many things I SHOULD be doing. I just ate my salad too fast, do I doubt I could actually lie down, but maybe I’ll take my computer into the bedroom and sit in bed with my massager on my back. I’ll get back with the rest of my day later.
