I hate to admit this, but I am weak. I was not granted a license to pig out during this phase, but I did. At least it felt like it. My weight remains the same, but my mind isn't where it should be. I had a snack-pack of tapioca pudding; later being reminded that it was starch. Ugg!!! Why wasn't I thinking? I was only looking for a full-fat treat that I would enjoy. When I bought it, I had the option of buying a huge container of it, but opted for the single servings. Even though it was more expensive, I did know that if I would have bought the large container, I would have finished the whole thing in one evening. I only ate one of them, and managed to move the remaining 5 to the back of the refrigerator.
Yesterday was horrible. Mia's good friend Dianna finally passed away. I didn't know her, but I know that Mia loved her. Please say a prayer for Mia and Dianna's family to know that she is no longer in pain.
Off to do more homework. Then I get to prepare for my trip to Bend coming up next Monday. Unfortunately, La Grande does not have a Pulmonary or Liver specialist, so I have to travel to see one. The upside is that I GET to get out of town if only for 3 days. La Grande can really be smothering. Sometimes I feel like I'm in a hole, surrounded by senior citizens. I think this is where people move when they give up wanting to live. The phrase "Nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there" comes to mind.
Lol Tonnie... Try living in Phoenix during the snow bird season when all the old farts come to their winter homes. They leave at 5:30am to make their 11am doctor appointment, leave by 2pm to make it to the pharmacy by 5pm and finally back home... all while driving 50 mph on the freeways when EVERYONE has somewhere to be in a hurry. Lol. There are thousands of them!
ReplyDeleteI have pudding snack packs too. It says in the book that they are okay so I limit myself to 1 every other day since they do have starch in them. They are just too good to hide in the fridge. Eating on P3 is so hard! I don't like it at all. I like eating on the VLCD much better, I know exactly what I can have and how much. I need structure!
