So All Needed Was One More Hour?

Sunday, November 3, 2019

As annoying as daylight savings time is, I sure do love that extra hour we get in the fall.  I even managed to fake myself out this morning -- I changed my alarm from 6:30 to 5:30 on my phone, woke up shortly before what the clock said was 5:30 ... and only after I got up did I realize that I hadn't set the clocks back and it was only 4:30.  Oops.  Dozed in a chair for a few minutes but couldn't get back to sleep.  And so ... I managed to motivate enough to go for a short walk.  All I needed was one more hour?

Otherwise in a fantastic mood this morning.  Not too fazed by the scale going the wrong way -- I mean, it's obvious why given my horrendous overeating of late -- since for once I'm optimistic about making some positive changes.  I do wonder if there are some things I can eat if prepared correctly (without sugar and seed oils, soaked/fermented etc) but we will see.  Once I eat through some junk that is.

Breakfast:  Homemade soaked buttermilk waffles with maple syrup, 5 strips applewood bacon, coffee


Changed up the waffle recipe and went with one that soaked the flour in buttermilk overnight Weston A Price style.  Kinda winged it beyond that tbqh.  Didn't notice any difference in taste, but I like the tang anyway.  Also went straight maple syrup since I think I pretty much finished my bottle of Tree Hive syrup with honey yesterday.

Also, oddly enough the recipe made nearly six waffles, up from 4 and 5.  Same cup of flour.

Lunch:   Oh yes, lots of it.

Dinner:  Tons.

Exercise:  Short walk, phone said 0.6 mile, was just about 20 minutes.

Went just fine.  Geared up appropriately for 37 degrees F, though I do need to find my beanie (or get a new one).  I don't have an ideal route for my walk any more, but if I can deal with a few blocks I can catch the route I used to take and do some of that.
