Day 60: Two Months !

 



Wednesday October 16, 2024


Here is the link to my original Day 60. It was Monday March 4, 2019. My headline for that day was "The Vehicle For My Soul". This was a reference to body image. I feel like I was a lot more committed to the program than I am now, but I'm slowly making progress. I was going to do a weigh in tomorrow morning but after pizza & beer tonight, that's likely not a good idea. I will get an official weight on Friday morning !


It was just after 9:30 when I got up today, which is so much later than I'd like to be getting up. If I manage to find a job I'm going to have a rude awakening ! There were 5 hungry cats waiting for me outside, probably since it was so late. The last couple days there has only been 2.


I spent the morning watching YouTube and playing Cookie Jam, but I made sure to make the bed, get dressed and get a 20m spin on Hauru Beach in before it was time to take a shower. I skipped the shower & skincare last night because I knew I was showering early today.


Breakfast was 160 calorie waffles with sugar free syrup and an 80 calorie yogurt. Morning snack was a 155 calorie chocolate shake with peanut butter powder. Lunch was the usual 220 calorie pepperoni pizza melt. I plan to have a flatbread pepperoni pizza and 2 Michelob Ultra for dinner tonight. I'll probably have a 140 calorie lemon zest cake with whipped cream when I get home from rock & roll bingo.


Below is what I achieved today. I am focusing on what I do each day, and not looking back to what I did or didn't do any other day. I hope that one day soon I won't need a checklist to ensure I do all of these everyday tasks !

Day 147: It's Go Time !

Image
  I had so much hope for 2024, but I haven't accomplished anything. I failed miserably getting back on my diet and exercise program. I lost my job. I can't seem to keep my house neat, though I'm trying. Here is a link to my first post of 2024:  New Year   I feel like I'm still in the same place. I started and stopped so many times and I have yet to "get it right". I am going to be starting 2025 with the same goals as 2024 .. and 2023 ... and probably 2022. I have to pull myself out of the hole I've dug and start this final section of life: retirement. I'm not going to fool myself into thinking I will magically find a job in the new year. In all honesty, I don't want a new job. This means I have ZERO excuses not to fully devote my life to losing the weight. I have nothing but time. I do not want to end 2025 in the same place. I want to be thinner and happier. I wrote the paragraph above on 12-16-24. I'm going to repeat it in every blog through 1...

Day 73: A Much Better Day

Image
  Tuesday October 29, 2024 Here is the link to my original  Day 73 .  It was Sunday March 17, 2019 - St Patrick's Day ! My headline for that day was "Improving Yourself". This reference is pretty self-explanatory ! I woke up shortly before 9 and I'm not sure of the exact time I got up, not that it matters. I had 6 stray cats to feed this morning ! Minnie and I had our usual morning snuggle but when she hopped down just after 10 I took the opportunity to make my bed, get dressed, brew a second cup of coffee, take the trash out, open the porch curtains and put the mums outside. I didn't have to make a shake as I still had the one I made yesterday. I also weighed myself and the scale read 273.6, which was great. It was 273 on the nose yesterday. I am still behind. By this time I had lost 39.4 pounds the first time around. I don't think I can catch up, but I'm going to try my best ! There didn't seem to be any blood in my stool this morning. There might ha...
