So Today I dropped 3.4lbs overnight I have no doubt this is water weight but hey I’ll take it. I need to get the access water out of my body as my ankles and legs have been swollen for weeks. I have been having chest pains for several days I think it is just heartburn and acid reflux as it does pass after some belching. If it continues to be problematic I may have to go to see my cardiologist again even though I saw him about 2 weeks ago and everything checked out.
Last night I almost ordered out again. I decided to just focus on working on the computer to keep myself distracted. My girlfriend went out and got Ice cream when she brought it back she gave me some. Not that this was a good food choice but it was better than ordering out and eating deep fried crap food again loaded with fat and sugar. I should not have eaten this but it stopped me wanting to order out and also stopped me from feeling hungry. I am surprised that I went down in weight after eating that last night but truth be told before having that my calories were probably hovering around 900 for the day.
I was able to get to sleep earlier last night. Using the app sleepy time I based the time to go to bed on that. so by 9:47 I was in bed. I need to make this a regular habit of getting at least 5 full sleep cycles (each sleep cycle is 90 minutes) but preferably 6. I am eventually going to start going to bed earlier and getting up earlier. I may try shifting it so that I am doing work in the morning versus the evening. I am trying to increase not only my rest as I am chronically tired but also my productivity. Soon I will be getting back to early morning walking as well to get some exercise. I need to recondition my heart, I should have never stopped doing this.
Tonight will be another struggle but I am hoping to be able to keep it under wraps. I just have to keep telling myself NO MORE and focus on my goal, keep envisioning how much different my life will be in the upcoming months as I hit my goals.
That is all for now, time to get some other things done.
