Still still here

reading everyone's blogs and all that.

It's been a hard week. Still kind of ill. My bro is back home from the hospital. He has a heart issue. I wish the fam did not live so far away, so I could visit.

I've decided to give up drinking for a month or two for various reasons. We'll see how that goes. It will certainly keep the calories down!

Weight not going anywhere although I do seem to be getting a bit smaller. Boyfriend noticed that my pants were hanging lower. He's a little dubious about this CRON thing. I think when I stop getting sick every three weeks he'll understand.

Today was a weird day, lots of naps... Big bran muffin, some pineapple, some swiss cheese, big bowl of yogurt w/some granola, diet coke. I would like to eat something solid for dinner. I think I will just steam a bunch of kale. I need to enter all this stuff in the COM. It can be difficult to input some foods, like a random muffin from a bakery. So I do things like "Okay I just ate this bran muffin. Bran muffin, bran muffin, where's the bran muffin entry? What in hell is a toaster muffin? Oh well it says bran and raisin. This bran and raisin muffin was pretty big. I guess a toaster muffin is really small. Probably. Maybe I will put in 3.5 toaster muffins. *click* Oh wait, I gave boyfriend a big chunk of my muffin. 3 toaster muffins?"

It is also really easy to get slack about measuring things. I think I over-estimate a bit rather than underestimate but it's still not ideal. I'll be all groggy and just glop stuff together and then have to figure out what exactly I ate. It's not as satisfying eating that way as taking the time to make a nice small meal.

And I still don't like eggwhites.

But I am slowly getting better.

The estimation drives me crazy too. I tend to deal with it the same as you. But I agree that it feels much better to make a meal yourself with the added advantage of knowing exactly what you're getting.
