Debbie Cousins's Journal, 03 July 2019

Yesterday, I had the grand kids for over nine hours. Where do I find that on the Exercise list? At the pool, I beat my record (12) and swam EIGHTEEN laps! I found out that 30 laps is a mile, so I actually swam over 1/2 mile! Mind you, I don't swim the laps all at one time - I swim 4-6 at a time, but just DID it several times! I resisted several temptations at the pool! I got the kids an order of French fries to share and I didn't even have one. I also got them ice cream to share and passed on that too. Lest you think I only feed them bad foods, I only got the extras because they ate all of the yogurt, string cheese and boiled eggs I brought first! Weight down again this morning. I'm very pleased with that, especially since I haven't had a BM in three days. I've been keeping my calories surprisingly low. I expected to have a hard time getting it back down to 1,800, but not snacking all day has really helped! Last night, I would have liked something else to eat, but I had maxed out the Net Carbs, and my bacon wasn't thawed. It feels so good to have the "old Debbie" back!!!
