Whee! 17 weeks!
Since I got to bed so late last night I would have liked to have slept in but that couldn’t be the case.
I made it out of bed at about 5:30 and got started. It was easier to do my vision therapy this morning because I went straight into the bathroom rather than [...]

So far, so good, but I’m still using WordPad so I can save every now and then.
It’s time for True Confessions. I haven’t been broadcasting my weight but I guess it’s time. Yesterday morning when I weighed, I had definitely broken 150. I was down to 149.5 one day last week but I was [...]

I’ve been getting the BSOD tonight so I’m writing this in WordPad and will copy and paste when I can get online to update.
I got up a little after my usual time and did all my exercises. Breakfast was a large bowl of watermelon. Later, I had two nectarines, a peach, and a banana/orange juice [...]

I was late getting up AGAIN this morning. Once I made it out of bed, though, I was rarin’ to go.
I did my Lightning Speed Exercises plus a few more routines that I added on my own from days gone by so I wasn’t totally inert.
Breakfast was “oatmeal” with raisins. I used four smallish organic [...]

Yesterday’s calorie count was 1300 with 14% fat and 8% protein. I didn’t have my customary midmorning meal.
I got up too late this morning to exercise so I just did my vision therapy.
Breakfast was a peach here and dates and a smoothie that I took to work. It was banana/pear. I had found a decent [...]

It is much too late to be doing this but I can’t let a day go by without updating myself, if no one else.
I got up fairly early for a Sunday since I had a birthday party to go to fifty-some miles away. I’d done a load of laundry last night and dried it, then [...]

I set the alarm and read the rest of a book I’d been working on for several weeks. It isn’t an easy read because it’s poorly written. I took a short nap for the first time in months.
I got up and dressed, then put some dates in a container to take with me just in [...]

Date October 15, 2005

I’d promised I would play for church today but I failed to get up any earlier. I didn’t have time to do anything but my vision therapy.
Breakfast was some dates (yum!) and a banana/pear smoothie. I took some dates with me and slipped out between services to have a couple. I gave the rest to [...]

16 weeks!
I got up a little late but I did everything that I was supposed to.
Breakfast was “oatmeal” with dates since I forgot to soak raisins last night. I also had a kiwi and a nectarine.
I ate my watermelon outside. I had a full staff today so I didn’t have to stay in the office [...]

I got up pretty much on time but I was in no mood to exercise so I just kind of puttered around and got ready for work. Of course, I had my devotions and did my vision therapy. I was sleepy, not dead.
Yesterday was par for the course. I had most of the same stuff [...]
