Small loss this week. I slacked off on the nuts a bit. I tried out a new cake recipe I found online. The cake goes well with coffee. I even made some low-carb ice cream. I still have some left because I am less motivated to eat lots of it with chillier temperatures.

I am still able to maintain good blood pressure with half-doses of my ARB (I cut the pills in half myself) in addition to my CCB. I finally got to go to my clinic and I was able to get a formal dose reduction for my ARB!

I am happy that my BP and my period are better controlled and that it is a sunny day today. I am less happy that my mother is at the hospital due to a bone fracture. My sister recently moved far away for job-related reasons, so both my sister and I live away from my mom. And all the new COVID restrictions make visits unlikely. The challenging part is making the phone call to the hospital and hoping the call goes through. I am going to try again later today.

69.7 kg Lost so far: 9.3 kg.    Still to go: 0 kg.    Diet followed: Reasonably Well.
