Well, that's pretty much the only one. I was delighted to be able to share an almost-normal meal with Anna and Mark tonight. I was preparing a whole chicken; I was going to cut a little off for me (though that's not smiled on, but I figured what could happen?!). We'd all have salads, etc. Variations on a chord structure.
Then I forgot and went into auto-pilot: I put olive oil on the bird before placing it in the oven. That is strictly forbidden. Rats!
OK, there are good things to report. My fingernails are no longer breaking. My blood sugar is markedly lower (I'll find out how much lower in the morning; I ran out of strips for several days and just got some). My overall musculo-skeletal pain is definitely less. One of my very best friends told me I looked happy. That surprised me, but as I trust her implicitly, she must be right! Imagine that. Today, right now, hungry as I am, I am glad I stuck through last week. It was a close one.
35# until X. Seems like a lot. But considering I've already lost 22, that's 39% of my first big goal. That's not nothing!
38 days until stabilization (subject to change). I can do it. :)
