Yay! It's my favorite day of the week and I am taking a half day off work. Can it get better than that? Well, yes, if it wasn't raining, it would be perfect.
Okay so I am feeling bloated.
I have been working the receptionist position at my job all week because the girl who does it has been out with a bad tooth. Well, it started out as a bad tooth, then the dentist pulled it, so now it is a sore socket.
Anyway, I have been doing another job on top of the two I already do. Thanks to that, I haven't been able to do as much as I usually do, including walking, and believe it or not, going to the bathroom.
Now you may think that is funny. It isn't.
So anyway, keeping things pleasant, I am bloated. I cannot take laxatives, because I also have diverticulosis. This little disorder keeps me from eating popcorn too, which really bites because I LOOOOOOVE popcorn.
So. I got on the scales today. Just because. Well, and ... I am up. One lb. point two. That's almost a whole lb and a half!! OhMY G!!
And I am going to a big event this weekend. Just shoot me now.

Getting underway or weigh...
...depends on how you look at it.
I am already one half day into my new "plan" which isn't a plan at all, but rather a whole foods natural eating lifestyle. Nothing artificial, no sweetners, no caffeine, no table salt. (Kosher sea salt in moderation is okay) and lots of water and fresh air and sunshine, which I am happy to report we have a ton of today.
I am diabetic too, and so I have to watch everything I put into my mouth.
The problem with me is, I am putting food into my mouth far too often. I need to cut that little habit out.
So starting today, I woke with the chickens, and drank water. Then with my breakfast I had 32 oz more water with lemon. I ate two eggs over hard and sliced tomatoes for breakfast.
Blood sugar two hours later 130. Sigh. Okay this is going to take a day or so, but it will be okay.
For lunch, I had blueberries and organic vanilla yogurt and for a snack I had 1/4 cup of sesame seeds, raw and unsalted.
I am still hungry, yes I am. I admit this diet is truly torturous and probably not for everyone. Unfortunately, I am still recovering from a bout of bronchitis, which has me feeling pretty darn rotten. In fact, today I have almost felt as though I am relapsing. BUT! I am going to persevere. I have put a butternut squash in the oven to bake and for dinner I will have a bit of that and steamed veggies or salad.
I MISS MY COFFEE!!! No caffeine? What was I thinking?
