Plod, plod, plodding along…

Well down a pound, it’s the right direction that’s for sure and if nothing else that gives me hope. I had oatmeal this morning. I wonder if that’s what’s got the blood pressure way down. Who knows, still haven’t hit the point where it’s stable and low for good. Such a journey! I might as well have been crawling through the Poseidon for all the twists and turns I’ll be encountering but as the song goes… “There’s got to be a morning after…” so I’ll plod along.

Last night when I was dead tired I felt immense hunger. I tried to ignore it but finally headed for the fridge and heated up some green beans and baked beans. I have to say I really felt hungry. I passed the 100-calorie packs of cookies and the ice cream so that’s good, just would have preferred to eat nothing. Glad I turned to veggies though. Yesterday I smoked a turkey breast on the grill so I have that for protein, but sometimes I just don’t like to eat “meaty” things. Turkey’s great for sandwiches and it’s got such a low fat content. It’s a wonderful source of protein.

Today more writing, I just want to write. I have some stationary to design for my sweetie with his logo, so that’s got to happen but today I think I’m going to play with some characters and hammer them down on paper. It’s only Wednesday, maybe I’ll be able to recoup my losses in the next few days.
