bellaedison's Journal, 18 February 2021

This morning there was that magic golden glow outside, some kind of optical illusion due to the filtered sunrise. I even opened the door and looked outside to check if there is any UFO in the sky that emits that light...💡😃

Took a picture, but it did not catch it. Anyway, it was beautiful even if it was gone quickly.

My weight is playing stubborn with me again, but I am on some medication now, so I guess it contributes to water retention. Not a big deal. I know from my previous weight loss sessions that after the initial weight loss it will take me at least 2--3 months to shed those extra 10 pounds.

I cooked a batch of homemade coconut curry and simmered shrimp and bok choy in it, which turned out to be delicious. The curry paste is easy to make and I can actually make it as mild as I want. My husband can't eat food that is too spicy, so it worked perfectly.

The only thing is that whatever I cook, it's always few day's "leftovers" supply for me with my ~1000Cals.

I "invented" a new snack - some broccoli sprouts wrapped in the thin slice of prosciutto. 😊 Any condiments will work with that: tomatoes, olives, few drops of olive oil, ranch sauce, cheese crumbs, etc. Done in seconds and tasty.

The weather is gloomy but one can feel almost lukewarm moisture in the air. Perfect for skin hydration🌺! I went for a walk and did some serious stretching.
145.3 lb Lost so far: 2.4 lb.    Still to go: 13.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

You are looking good as usual. Curry and shrimp... I think that will be my plan soon.

It will be perfect meal for cold weather (wink), warm and full of flavors. If not hearty enough, can add some sausage or something.
