The Trudgery

Thursday, August 21, 2025

Okay, the faucet is officially off.  Now the drudgery begins, just trying to be good day after day.  It's not really that bad, but there will be plenty of days where that pizza, that donut, that coke with lots of ice sound SO good.  But so far anyway resolve is good.  I need to feel better.

And boy do I.  I was hurting last night and was hurting again this morning.  I need to remember to take some electrolytes tonight, I woke up twice with cramps, which were minor but enough to get me out of a sound sleep.  And I need to order a new box.

It was nice to at least have a small drop on the scale.  I half expected a rebound which isn't unusual after a sudden water drop. 

Breakfast:  2 slices sharp cheddar, coffee

 

Again.

Lunch:  3 eggs over medium, 1C spicy beans with ~2 oz chorizo, 3 strips bacon

 

Excellent.  I saved a couple ounces of yesterday's chorizo to pump up today's lunch - I was going to eat the bacon for breakfast but didn't take the time.  Beans and eggs are a tasty combo.

Dinner:  Chicken fajita bowl - chicken breast, cheese, fajita veg, sour cream and guac

 

I impulse bought the chicken (Tyson) since it was on sale and could be air fried.  It was ... fine.  I'll eat this again, mostly due to having at least 3 more servings of chicken in the freezer.  But in general I prefer beef. 

Also cleaned up the Meijer pork cracklins.  Still meh. 

Exercise:  Nope.  As mentioned, hurting.  Edit: Less so tonight though.
