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.
