Debbie Cousins's Journal, 02 Jul 19

Great day yesterday. Reducing the Diet Coke from 2-liters/day to 12 oz really helped with fluid retention - thus the 3-lb loss this morning. Also started a new medication for "overactive bladder," which has the side effect of dry mouth, so it was easier to get in all of my water. Going to the pool with the kids today and going to swim at least 12 laps. It's harder to get in the exercise when the kids are with me, but I'm going to make it happen. At the pool, I usually get the kids breaded chicken tenderloins (which I have some of) and a Chips Galore ice cream cookie sandwich, which we split among us. I also bring string cheese and beverages and chips. Today, I'll stick to just the string cheese. (I think I can. I think I can. I think I can.)

84.6 kg Lost so far: 32.9 kg.    Still to go: 16.6 kg.    Diet followed: 100%.
