Ms Elizabeth's Journal, 14 Aug 23

You realize you need to make a change when your shoes don't fit. Granted it's been 3 years since I tried to wear those boots but cowgirl boots are serious business. We went to the Zac Brown concert on Friday and I tried to wear my boots and they cut off the circulation to my toes. I was retaining water at the time but still. My 8 yr old said he threw out a shoulder trying to get them back off me. I couldn't remove them on my own. Well I could have.. but I probably would have pulled a hip.

So today I'm being better. I'm trying lower carb and higher protein but I'm not labeling anything as evil. I'm just trying to get my eating under control. The BF hardly eats. I don't know how he does this. If you put a plate in front of me I will dig in. He takes 3 bites and declares he's full. I think he's a robot. I realized this Saturday when we were taking it easy. He skipped breakfast, barely ate lunch/dinner. I ate breakfast, ate a decent lunch/dinner, and by 7 my stomach was growling. He still wasn't hungry. I'm calling robot. He's got to be a robot. I also know I eat too much so.. this is my plan and I'm sticking with it.

For breakfast I made some quick lunchmeat and cheese rollups because I'm not hungry before 10 am. I'm having leftovers for lunch after the gym. For dinner.. I'm grilling chicken and veggies. That's my plan and I'm sticking with it.

Also.. I stepped on the scale. The scale is dumb.
