It's always in the last place you look!
Yes, I'm back in the saddle. The 5AM alarm did not succeed in getting me on the treadmill, but that was my biggest problem for the day.
I began the day with some Silk for my meds - it's a little high in carbs, switching from the chocolate to the vanilla as soon as this one is done, the vanilla has less sugar. It's only a few swallows, enough to get my meds down and qualify as "food".
Breakfast was two bacon strips and a sausage patty - I know, huge breakfast!
By lunch I was pretty starved, the nuts I ate were not enough. I walked down to my favorite teriyaki place and got a beef & chicken combo, no rice with extra veggies.
I'd walk down there more often, but, I have a problem: I don't own a waist. Since I'm all belly from my boobs to my knees, I wear my pants under my belly. (I could wear them over my belly, but either I would need a ten foot long belt or I would need to wear them under my boobs - not sexy!)
I wear the draw string pants. If I wear a belt, eventually the buckle cuts into my belly and hurts - to the point of bruising and even bleeding! If I wear a belt, or wear my pants tight enough to stay up, they cut in and that hurts. If I wear them loose enough to not hurt, they drop to my ankles - FUMP!
Every now and then I get my drawstring ~ just so ~ and the pants stay up with minimal effort and don't hurt. This is SO rare and with my body changing shape, it literally varies from day to day. (See recent weight fluctuations) Today was not a good pants day.
The whole walk down I'm tugging my pants up. On the way back, I have a package ... of food! So I have to stop at least every block if not twice every block, put down my food, tug up my pants, then off I go on my chubby way again. It's annoying and embarrassing.
Dinner was turkey and salad - nothing too exciting but it was tasty and most importantly ... ON!

Thanks for leaving a comment!
Ive never worn a belt--because I could never find one that fit me.
Keep up on your good work! Come on, we have until May 19th!
What's May 19th???
Hey Jericho! Have you thought about investing in some suspenders? I'm sure that they would be much more comfortable, and your pants wouldn't fall off. If you didn't want anyone to see them, you could just wear them over a t-shirt and then pull on your regular shirt over them. Personally though, I like suspenders. My papa always wore them, and I thought they looked sharp on those guys in the older movies- back in the days when people wore nice clothes regularly.
Anyway, it's just an idea- something to possibly get you by until your clothes fit you the way that you want them too.
Jericho, this is the girk checking in on you! :) I know, I was rolling around on the floor with that one. I think it must be a combination girl and jerk. Makes sense, eh?
Yeah, you are right, when I am in the "zone", I wonder why I would ever want something like a Tastycake, or some other nutritionally void food. I am just hoping I am able to stay with it this time, and not toss it away by eating something stupid! :)
They say life is short. Wrong. Life is long and it's full of opportunities to eat Tastycakes.
So, when we do something stupid, we all have to dust ourselves off and get back in the saddle knowing that we will hit the Tastycake wall again and again.
Now, if I can just remember these brave words the next time it happens to me! :)
