Debbie Cousins's Journal, 30 Jun 21

Tried FOUR times to upload the pictures of my breakfast (an Atkins Farmhouse Scramble) and my "dessert" (one sliced banana with 10 cherries), but it would take forever, and then the pictures were distorted. Oh well. For lunch I got my husband and the grandkids BoJangles fried chicken (husband) and chicken supremes (kids), with seasoned fries and Dirty Rice. Before I left to go there, I put a Tyson's Southern Style Chicken Tender in the toaster oven to be ready for me when I got home, and I ate that with some of the Bo Honey Mustard sauce. Later, I had one serving of the 7-Layer Salad.

For dinner tonight I'm having the remaining 1/3 of my baked potato with the other chicken tender chopped up on top of it. I'm not going to post duplicate pictures when I eat the same meals. BORING! That will be an encouragement to me to NOT eat the same thing over and over again, but to introduce some variety into my eating plan.

Thanks to everyone who has been walking alongside me on this journey. So far, I'm off to a good "start." The race has just begun though.

DID have a small bowel movement today (after only 48 hours since fasting), which means I have successfully gotten through the food re-introduction phase. YIPPEE! The Bible says, "In everything give thanks," so Thank You, Lord for the BM! I've also been doing MUCH better about praying before I put my fork to my mouth. At 67, you'd think I'd have this down, right?

OK, time to fix that dinner. Been up since 2:30am this morning, and I'll be ready for bed in just two hours.

Great job having a plan in place and food ready before going to get fast food for the family!!!

Checked HW today, even though it was only yesterday my license went in, and my points were there so requested a check. Glad it is over. Thank you for your encouragement regards this and in life generally.

No worries about the pictures. Just good to read your progress.

Great to hear, @Snowwhite100! Be sure to send me a picture of your check when you get it, and I will send you a pic of mine! It's been a LONG 6 months, and I'm glad it's over, too. So for, my weight has only gone up about four pounds, which is GREAT, since I thought it might go up as much as ten pounds with the re-introduction of food. Still might go up some more, but I hope I'll quickly find a good set-point for my metabolism so I can start going under it to create a daily deficit. I'm optimistic about the next six months!
