That Karma thing I was talking about yesterday seemed to stick with me all day. When I finally finished doing everything I had to do I couldn't log in my food journal or actually do anything on FS so I gave up and went to bed. I didn't even get to read through journals which is my favorite thing to do. It seems things are working better this morning. Maybe I reset my Karma overnight.
Before that though, the kitchen sink stopped up so my miracle working husband tried his magic on it and he couldn't get it fixed. Plunging, snaking and drano failed to work so I guess we're going to have to get a plumber in. Hubs said whatever is causing the problem is pretty far down the drain behind the wall. It's a double sink, luckily, and the other side is draining just fine. In a little while I'm going to attempt to run the dishwasher and hopefully that doesn't end up all over the floor. But if it does, then voila, clean floor. So really it would be a win/win (right?) I suppose I should call the landlords, but I won't. They didn't back up the sink so there's no reason to make them deal with the situation. I'm not even sure they're still here. They may have gone back to Alberta by now, but I think that would be craziness and they really seem pretty sane. They are such a sweet couple. When they came back to Florida after Christmas they brought us a giant bag of Coffee Crisp candy bars. We were addicted to them over the summer while living in Dawson City and when we got back we looked everywhere for them and actually found them for $4 a pop at this little convenience store in our neighborhood that caters to the Quebecois who winter here. There are still a few left in the freezer which neither I nor my husband has touched or even had the desire to. I'm keeping them there to show them I am stronger than they are.
Today is one month since I've been LC-ing. Looking over at my weight history chart it seems to have flat lined which is also how it feels. I honestly thought I'd be down at least 15 pounds by now, but I have not lost any more than the initial weight. At the time it seemed really motivating, but now it just seems like a cruel trick. Looking back it made me really happy, but I think it would have been easier on my psyche if it had been a more gradual loss. I have lowered my carbs even further thinking it would help but obviously it hasn't yet. I'm going to stick with it for awhile and see what happens. I've researched it a fair amount and it seems like that course of action is what gets things moving again.
I've always been stubborn in personality and it appears that's true for physically as well.
Things I'm grateful for today:
All of the usual stuff I'm trying not to take for granted like my health and the weather and seeing the ocean first thing every morning when I get up.
Things I'm not grateful for today:
Nothing. I'm scared of Karma.
