Maybe Some Optimism

Monday, June 22, 2026

No idea how I was going to feel this morning after a good day yesterday.  It's early, but so far so good.  Slept okay, no issues other than a minor foot cramp in the 5:00 hour.  Slept up to the alarm and then snoozed as I was not ready to get up.  I kinda doubt that I'll ever get on a truly regular sleep schedule - leaving aside the random life events that throw it off, there is so much variability in the quality of sleep I get.

Scale down, which was nice and not expected since I overate at dinner.  It feels like I have made small progress on fixing portion sizes and not overeating as often but there is still much to do.

Breakfast:  Cheese sandwich, coffee

 

Was very late so went with fast.  Bought a loaf of bread this week, so there will be sandwiches.

Lunch:  Turkey sandwich, leftover potato salad

 

I did not expect to end up with the leftover potato salad but it happened.

Dinner:  2x mexican tacos, guacamole

 

Dependable, though they were out of avocado.  Had a guac cup at home.  Cut to 2 tacos and it was enough this time.

 

Also a home rootbeer float for the capper - a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a 7.5 oz mini can of root beer.

I got so depressed reading ice cream cartons when I got groceries on Saturday.  So many effing ingredients.  Local dairy, you call it Grandpa's ice cream?  Grandpa didn't use ****ing locust bean gum, guar gum and carageenan you ****ing clowns.  Ended up with Hudsonville which isn't exactly clean, containing mono and diglycerides, cellulose gum and guar gum.  Even Tillamook isn't clean.  Looks like Turkey Hill might offer a suitable choice, going to check that out when I hit Meijer next. 

Exercise:  Nope.  Not going to push hard today, but I am hoping to be active around the house tonight since I did not get through all my weekend chores.
