Dear Self,
It's day 2 of taking better care of yourself. Today, you ate one of the protein fused waffles of your own recipe and yes, 2 sausage links.
You had a protein infused smoothie with strawberries, banana, arugula, and plain Greek yogurt.
Dinner-- you had 1.5 ounces diced chicken on heart of romaine and arugula, 5 sliced cherub tomato, diced onion, celery and carrots sprinkled over it with sesame dressing and a tablespoon of sprinkled cheese.
You consumed 1171 calories total.
You burned a minimum of 1760 calories in the past 24 hours.
Generally, people at your weight need 2550 to maintain your current weight. People at your desired weight need 2100 calories to maintain their weight.
Average calories consumed 1200 and burned 1700 totals a 500 calorie difference. You should weight a pound less tomorrow.
It feels good. I see how I gained weight. Lack of consistent movement. I was reading, watching TV and the only time I rose from my spot, was to fix meals for my husband and I or to go grocery shopping and cleaning house or mild weeding. :) I did this for months. Since February 3, 2024, I've completed 4 Sudoku books, well over 400 Sudoku puzzles. I've done Math problems out of my old Algebra books. I watched all of Grimm, all of the Suits, all of a lawyerly series involving Patrick from the Mentalist, and a couple of other series. So, you can say that I have been sedentary for five months. That'll do it!
Tomorrow, here I come!

Water intake needs improving today. I did have a good day, filled with exercise of mind and body.
New challenges tomorrow.
Going to drink water to see how much comes out. Hope the kidneys are good.

I have explained that my doctor wanted me to stop working at the place I loved. I was shocked that I gained weight so easily once I quit, but then again, binge watching Suits and Grimm doesn't encourage most movement. Completing over 400 Sudoku doesn't either.
What else is missing? Vegetables. Fruits. I've been thinking about things my husband will eat and how to prevent packaged foods from entering his body but I've continued to neglect my well-being. I hover at 171 still.
This week, I need to build a commitment to myself.
Problems:
While walking briskly with my granddaughter and her friends, I could hear noise from my Acetabulum, a sort of hip impingement sound and it was accompanied with a little shocking pain in my inner pelvis. Is it a Femoral Stress Fracture? I'll have to go get diagnosed for that answer. My fear is that Osteoporosis has begun. I've always been a walker and my previous job made sure of it. I logged in over 20 miles one day at 48,000+ steps. Mind you, many of those were up and down 3 flights of stairs as I had to run 3 different sets of stairs over 50 times that day. I'd say it was my personal record. We had people with issues, ceilings collapsing, mentally ill people entering episodes and their caregivers were either absent or overwhelmed, We had kitchen and dining issues that were off the chart raising the norm level of chaos. While I was tired at the end of that 10-hour shift, I had no pain. Months later, I have pain walking fast on a 2000 step walk. Today, I could only do 1500 steps and it hurt.
Only way to treat Osteoporosis naturally is through food and strengthening exercise. I need to find another place to watch TV. I can't afford to lose bone density in that I've had issues with it since I was 19. I'm 66 now.
I hope to journal my day, including how many hours are spent sitting cross legged in bed watching TV with my husband. I need to correct this. Walking is one of my most precious activities on earth, that and dancing.

Worked 7 days a week, 14 hours a day, couldn't exercise consistently and my food intake was fast and on the move. I quit my job after six years, to better my health but I'm finding so much work to be done here. I see my husband has gained weight and I put on twenty pounds. I am more concerned with the quality of food we are eating. As of Monday, I need to focus on how we begin our day. I'll make our waffles and our garlic spreads. Initially, I'll work on foods that are not processed. That's been our go-to as we need to eat fast. I'll stop that. No task master over my head. So, I'm going to find our way to healthier eating prior to one of us or both of us leaving earth. Exercise? I used to do it every morning. Now, I'll pretend we are young again and do my exercise at night. I was in much better health back then when most of our physical activities occurred in the evenings. We get our sleep but it's interrupted as my husband has COPD. Yep. I hope we have time. This is a confession. I don't have any measurable goals at this time.
