FullaBella's Journal, 05 April 2017

Little by little thanks to the private messages from my buddies I am getting the settings updated so the ability to comment on my journals if desired should now be available.

Bullet proof coffee for breakfast yesterday and again today. Miracle beverage it is by golly. On the other hand, tried that detox drink of cinnamon, honey, lemon and apple cider vinegar. I.Just.Can't.... and this from a woman who can eat sauerkraut for breakfast. Choking down the ACV was just wasn't worth the painful face I was making just to get a sip down... and it rests on my stomach like lead. There has to be a better way; maybe the rest w/o the ACV or I'll try to cut the ACV in half tomorrow with the hope that a little is better than none at all.

Starting to come back to the fold in recording food but didn't get the rest of yesterday. I will try to begin today due to a small self induced chuckle this morning:

To myself: wow, I don't know what I ate yesterday but I spent three hours last night trotting to to the bathroom.
Fat Secret ((they talk to me - in my head)) well, if you recorded your food you'd have known what you ate .....

Okay. So here's to the effort.

My Hello Fresh box came in yesterday - tonight's menu (providing I'm up to cooking after my massage) will be Prosciutto Wrapped Chicken over Risotto Primavera. I noticed there are 'some' Hello Fresh Items in the database but fairly minimal. However, the app gives the breakdown of caloric & fat, sugar, etc., so I'll likely enter it as a complete meal. I may do this after posting my journal if I don't get a customer in the shop as this is the only place I sit with a laptop.

My lawn is returning. A month or so ago I tried something new 'weed & feed'. The guy at the store advised 'don't water immediately, put this on and let the weed killer work for two days, then water'. But in my usual bumbling 'if a little is a good, a whole lot is better' fubar'd way of thinking I applied 'more' W&F two days later rather than watering. Entire lawn died. Dirt Yard. Lesson learned. Moderation. So many lessons so little time.

I finally found my recorded food from over two years ago. If there is an easier way to access it I couldn't discover it. I finally went to a food diary and then repeatedly back arrowed ... over 36 times .... to get to the time and place when I would enjoy stir frying onions, peppers, sauerkraut and spinach in coconut oil with a whole egg, ounce of cheese and fresh tomatoes on the side. I don't know why it was so important to find that other than it helped me remember a time and place where I enjoyed preparing breakfast with a better choice beyond that microwaved Schwan's Sausage, Egg & Cheese biscuit I had this morning.

That's all except that if on posting this journal my photo is off, well, sorry, I tried. There seems to be some frame that overlays the upload and I've reduced the width of the photo from 750 to 450 and the frame still wants to cut off the sides. That's what happens when gone for two years I guess. Technology. Technology happened. I want to get this right because I see a lot of posting of dishes and I'll want to do that myself. Live and learn.

Ahh.. that failed too. Submitting this now before I lose the journal.

So happy to see you back! I, for one, have missed your journaling. I am still on my journey, after many ups and downs. We CAN do this!

Welcome back my friend. None of us are perfect and as hard as we try, we too fall or jump off the wagon, for whatever reason. Fortunately, when that happens our friends here will slow it down so it's easier to get back on. Hugs

ACV - I have tried it in hot water, a tablespoon in an 8-10 oz glass of water. Much easier to drink. I really don't think I could stomach a glass of that stuff. I don't mind a spoonful straight. So if you have a mind boil the kettle, pour hot water into your favorite mug, add the other stuff and see how that sits. It's supposed to do great things for the bugs in tummy, said bugs do better things for us when fed ACV than sugar. :)
