Snowwhite100's Journal, 23 April 2019

Did not sleep a wink all night last night. I assume it was the chocolate. This one and a half day binge is costing me more than I bargained for. It's my fault, I actually forgot not to eat chocolate in the evening, because it always keeps me awake. I did get a nap today of a couple of hours. I was very good with my eating today except I did allow myself one of those small yellow mangos for less than 100 calories, but they are high in carbs. Maybe they shouldn't be allowed in strict Keto, but my weight is fine, even though I am up 4 lbs in 2 days. Maybe I should be strict Keto for the healing action of autophagy for my brain, since I am concerned with memory loss, but a little fruit could be good for me too, and I am only at 70% of RDI. It's fine. I am learning as I go. I doubt I will want to go much under 110 anyway.

I picked out 12 blazers (11 wool, 1 silk) today to give away. They are all long, like boy friend jackets which "are" back in style again but probably for young gals, and look better on taller girls. I have lost almost 3" in height. At 5'1" and being older they just look like I am standing in a hole, and seem dowdy on me. I have way too many jackets anyway, so let someone else (younger and taller than me) enjoy them.

Fasted 16.5 hours. Good enough for today, since with no sleep whatsoever I am more vulnerable, and still close to weepy after the funeral yesterday. My husband yelled at me a lot today because he wanted a manual for his computer but couldn't understand it is only on the internet, and it is only technical on how to change parts, not how to use things like the DVD burner. We tried to look on Youtube for ways to use a computer but he couldn't follow. Some days his memory is better than others. It is frightening to get old and feel we are losing control. I don't feel I am losing much control but I sure want to "nip it in the bud" in case I am one of the 50% of Americans to get dementia. I really can't "afford" sweets, but not sure I can stay away from them forever. It makes me rethink that mango. Maybe that would be considered a sweet. I question if I was mistaken to have it. Boy, it is high in carbs, even though small.

Antioxidants in fruit are very good for you and fight free radical damage.
