Day 30 Update on My Quest.

DAY 30 of Susan's Quest
This is not easy. It is not easy to watch what you eat and drink combined with having a life. My friends were so good at respecting my hiatus from adult beverages that I felt really lonely. Yes, I can drink my bubbly flavored water while enjoying the company of imbibing friends. Now that the Primary is over, I sincerely hope that Phoebe's Chat & Lounge is much busier.

Food for One is tough. It involves cooking. Which results in a messy kitchen and days of leftovers. All quick & handy 'food' is processed beyond reason, loaded with salt & MADE OF CARBS. The salad mixes from Costco are great. Love the Asian mix even more than the Parisian. Had high hopes for some frozen, pre-seasoned chicken. I will eat the rest (maybe guests will help?) but good grief the salt. So it's back to boneless, skinless chicken. There are some little ribs living in the freezer, picked up at Aldi's, that will be made yummy.

The Heat returned, wiping out my desire to walk vigorously. Even Phoebe is not happy in the sweaty heat. So there's been that. Regrouping finances after the brake job, so hopefully will have the $15 to join the rec center. Lovely treadmills in air conditioning.

Yes, I feel better. No exercise has me at a plateau in weight loss. Yes, the mid-riff bulge is really affected by libation intake. Yes, I will have an occasional beverage with friends and eat wonderful things in Limited Amounts (Sharing with Sharon works so well).
