Debbie Cousins's Journal, 24 November 2022

Forgot to weigh this morning because I got up at 12:15 and couldn’t go back to sleep, so I got up and started cooking! Turkey went in the oven at 3am (22 pounds); green beans have been simmering since 4. Just assembled the Pepper Jack Mac & Cheese and started cooking that (6:30am) in the crockpot (takes 4 hours). Knees really bad today. Already taken 1/2 of a pain pill and applied Voltaren.

I started a new medication yesterday. One pill a week for four weeks, for hyperhidrosis. My mouth is SO dry that I literally could NOT swallow a bite of peanut butter toast. Had to take a drink to wash it down because it was stuck in my throat. I hope everything won’t seem too dry at Thanksgiving dinner!!!

225.6 lb Lost so far: 33.4 lb.    Still to go: 75.6 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
