The Body's Revenge

Sunday, September 17, 2023

My body wanted desperately to go to bed about 8:30 last night.  By 9:30 it was very unhappy.  But I let my mind, in the form of the largely pointless desire to watch football on TV, overrule it.  I didn't end up going to bed until almost 11:00.  And I paid for it.  Woke up at 4:30 again, yikes.  Felt awful   Went back to sleep, woke up at 6:00.  NOPE.  Moved to the recliner and finally made myself get up when it was almost 9:00.  Awful.  Horrible.  No good.

I do not know if I would have been able to walk this morning regardless, I was pretty fatigued yesterday evening.  But getting up on less than six hours sleep and walking the day after my longest walk since the surgery?  No chance.  We'll see if I can work in a little exercise at some point today -- now that it's 10:00 and I'm cleaned up and had a cup of coffee I feel a little better.

Was pleasantly surprised to see a small drop on the scale this morning, despite the pizza, the dessert, the massive taco salad and the lazy bagels.  I did cycle through a lot of water.  Anyway, good thing.

Breakfast:  Leftover deluxe pizza, meijer cinnamon rolls, coffee


Friday night's leftovers.  Reheated nicely.  I could add a couple laps around the grocery store to yesterday's exercise total, but the downside was I bought a couple items of junk.  At least once I clean these up I'm out.  Hopefully I can stay that way.

Lunch:  Chipotle barbacoa bowl


Tasty as usual.  Timing was wonky, I would have preferred to eat later, but sometimes geography dictates timing.  I could solve that, of course, by eating at home.  Which would also avoid a bunch of seed oil.

Dinner:  Brat MR, chips, salad, corn on the cob w butter, vanilla ice cream w choc sauce


Sunday dinner.

Also:  2x Big Mac, Mchix

Exercise:  Nope.  Once again did some shopping (thankfully I didn't buy any junk) and got in some walking that way, but it doesn't really count.  If I can not overeat tonight and get good sleep, I have hopes of starting the week off right.
