Oh well, I lost some weight! I suppose it may be in relation to my period because it started late Sunday-early Monday. So maybe some water retention. This week, there was one lunch I skipped because I was not really hungry. Yesterday, I ate some takeout food (chicken wings with no sauce, sour cream on the side, Ceasar salad without the croutons to which I added some homemade mayonnaise, a small coleslaw that came with the food). And I also ate some dessert I made sometime in the week -- low-carb candied pecans. So good!
These days, my morning blood pressure is still good, in the optimal range. I hope it remains that way.
The number of new cases of Covid in Quebec has definitely decreased. That seems to be in better control. Unfortunately, we cannot say the same about the number of deaths. Still much smaller than it used to be a month or two ago. It got to around 6-8 deaths in early June, then rose back to about 50 daily. There is a great number of senior citizens living in CHSLDs (long-term care homes) and residences in Quebec, especially when compared to other provinces it seems. Those living in their own homes seem to fare better. If only CHSLD staff were provided with protective equipment early on (not only the hospital staff), there would have been fewer deaths. But then again, protective equipment items were probably out of stock.
At work (working from home though), things are getting busy, but I still have to take at least a week off due to my procedure. I lost my Internet due to another stupid power outage (that lasted about 1 second) and it took hours to get it back. So I am planning to do some more work today to compensate. Besides, it is very overcast right now. It is supposed to be nice and sunny tomorrow.
