9/08/2018 - Diet Diary - Thursday, closing in on the weekend. Not that it matters, after retirement, every day is a weekend day.
Leave your thoughts, comments, whatever, if you're in the mood.
I know what I should do- I just need the will to do it. Along with depression, comes the stress eating. I know also that I should 'enjoy' my meals: some spectacular veggies, that taste wonderful. An "All you can eat", restaurant, to me is such a gross idea; it is a celebration of sloth. Long ago I lost 46 pounds- and have kept it off, but I still want to lose another 20 pounds, which would bring me to a normal, athletic weight. I certainly am not anorexic. I know that fat is the normal in this current, strange world- while constant hunger and starvation are what is inflicted on the rest.
Exercise class today, also an hour+ of yard work. Too many weeds to little time. Too hot to do outside work until around 8 PM. Been having my kale smoothies more often for "breakfast". Kale, frozen banana, second green, currently spinach and second fruit, currently pears. The kale patch needs some attention, the cabbage butterflies are leaving their offspring like they think I'm running a daycare. They love to just wander around the leaves, eating a little here and a little there.
Calorie intake today was close to but under 1100. Paid for the sunflower seeds last night, salt really gets me but sometimes it is just so good. None today.
Way to go; you are doing the right things. I have orange juice, with lotsa pulp, maybe a banana.
I am not going to make this some constant struggle.
