Debbie Cousins's Journal, 16 February 2020

Well, I didn't even touch the computer yesterday or today. "Went to bed at 7pm," but husband was reading in bed so I played a couple games, PAST the point for my Ambien to have taken effect, so then I couldn't go to sleep. I got up and did tomorrow morning's Bible reading ahead of time, revised my Daily To Do List for the new week, input my proposed food for tomorrow morning's breakfast (it will be my first day of recording in two full weeks, I think).

Weigh-in tomorrow will probably be VERY revealing! This week, I created a Cinnamon Roll recipe using biscuits and, all told, I ended up making them FIVE TIMES, TWO of which were today! A batch makes 9 rolls in an 8"x8" baking dish. Today, I think I've totalled out with having SIX cinnamon rolls, I think! There is ONE left, but I took it and hid it on my husband's computer desk for him to eat in the morning so it won't be the first thing staring me in the face tomorrow morning. All my biscuits are gone, so NO MORE Cinnamon Rolls. Those things were TOOOO good!

I also finished off my 2-liter Diet Coke's tonight! I DO still have 12-oz cans, but I'm going to really TRY to concentrate on drinking water tomorrow! I'm going to hide my Diet Coke cup tonight and put my WATER cup in plain sight for when I get up tomorrow. I'm also going to try to get back to my "real" exercising tomorrow. It is supposed to be 55 degrees and sunny. Hasn't rained in several days, so the ground around the property is perfect for walking.

PLEASE GOD let this motivation carry over to tomorrow!!!! I've been REALLY out of it the past couple of days -- ZERO motivation, zero will-power, zero desire to make any changes. I've not even been doing my "regular" stuff (like skipped Bible reading day before yesterday, so had to do two days today), not reading anything motivational right now, and I've been gorging myself on anything and everything that I shouldn't be eating.

I'm kinda hoping I will weigh over 220 tomorrow morning. I really WANTED to have gotten up to 220 before I started losing again several weeks ago, but I had only gotten up to 118.5. Since I was back UP to 118.5 two days ago and haven't weighed since then, I'm thinking I'll probably have reached my somewhat sick goal by tomorrow.

I think tomorrow I might just go full-on keto and eat all bacon and eggs for all my meals tomorrow with an Atkins bar or two to give me the Fiber count. It will make it easier if I don't have "choices" of things to eat. Maybe what I need is just a regimented day of bacon, eggs, bacon, eggs, bacon, eggs. I DO put an ounce of shredded cheddar cheese into the 2-egg omelet, so that adds a tiny bit of carbs, but that's workable.

Well, MAYBE I can go to sleep now. I'm still kinda wound up. I WANT to get up early to get a good start on my accompmlishments for the day, so I NEED to get to sleep. Maybe I'll add 1/2 an Ambien to put me over the edge. Probably better than staying up all night and then sleeping in all morning!

HOPEFULLY, tomorrow you'll find that I'm baaaaack. Right now, it looks like there is HOPE that I will be (which is more than I can say for any other day in the past couple weeks!) Have a good late night to any of you night owns (or people in Turkey or other places where it is still yesterday or already tomorrow or however all that works with time changes between zones). Night all.

220 is just a nice round number from which to figure my losses, @jcmama777. I overshot it this morning, btw, 221! Now I've got 19 pounds to lose to get back down to my "100 pounds lost" weight of 202. I'm feeling motivated and strong so far today, though, and I've got some of my old resolve back. Still VERY new (again) to being back on track, so I'm not taking anything for granted. Today is the FIRST DAY of the rest of my life!

I found when taking Ambien I ate just out of control...I also went passed the time of sleep many times and then decided I was hungry...I just was not myself at all...with the doctors helped I stopped them and feel much better, just a thought ….
