Water Weight Coming Down
Oct 11 2008 16:40

Yeehaa!!! Another pound of water weight came off. I'm one pound under my start weight. The scale goes back in the bedroom..., and back to weighing only on Fridays. I'm stepping on that stupid scale everyday and getting myself all worked up over one silly pound up and one silly pound down. Those pounds don't really count anyway.

Got to the grocery store and did some revamping in buying. No more eating ground beef 3x a week just because it is a little cheaper and a easier to prepare, and quicker. Got some ground white turkey meat, whole turkey breast to fix in the crock pot, and some turkey sausage to fix some spaghetti. That should give me a little variety. Got some tuna, Healthy Select Campbell's soups, celery, yogurt, just some things I haven't been eating for awhile. Shake things up a bit. I know I can be losing weight faster than what I have been doing!

Had good news from my doc, I'm not low oxygen saturation while I'm sleeping. So, that's another illness I don't have that may be causing my sleep problems. He increased my sleep tab by one half pill. Last night I slept 7 hours straight, yipee!!! I felt so good when I got up this morning. I did a little happy "Snoopy dance", then I laid back down and slept another two hours, so that was nine hours all together. My body will hopefully get back in sleep shape. I hope the next few nights are more of the same. All I can do is pray. He is still stymied as to what is causing my insomnia. I'm going to increase my exercise also and see if that will help also.
