HelenMae's Journal, 17 October 2014

I have been a bit lazy lately with logging in. My meal times changed as I took on a part time job that gets me up at 2:45 am on the week days and 3:45 on Saturday and Sunday. I am still looking for FT work M-F 9-5. I need to find a new balance with my daily schedule ... the gym is still consistent with the classes I attend (I refuse to give up my MMA).

My older son turned 27 a few days ago and I ate too many of the wrong foods (I ate smaller portions than suggested serving - one coconut onion ring, pizza slice, cake and ice cream), which in turn retaliated the following day. The strange part about it all is that I did not even enjoy those foods. Well, the pizza was good and thin crust squares. In any case, I believe the loss in pounds is due to my system rejecting my poor choice in foods - too many poor choices at once.

Back on track today, but I won't be able to log accurately, as I made a chicken salad concoction for lunch using some left over foods (in particular a broccoli salad purchased from the deli).

... ok, I am just babbling today.
