Traveling Forward Once Again

Today has been a good day.  My weight this morning was 267.8 pounds.  I have gained a bit but it could have been much worse.  Also, I didn't have my medication yesterday so some of that may have  been fluid.  We will see when I weigh tomorrow morning.  I did get my morning routine done although it took most of the day as I completed things between my two appointments and some major grocery shopping.

I have set my goal weight of 235 pounds by the time I go to my liver specialist the end of March.  It is obtainable but I will need to stay focused.  My first mini goal is to reach 260 pounds.  Once I reach that I will treat myself to a new CD to listen to while working or exercising. 

I walked 10 minutes on the treadmill tonight at 3.0 mph.  My exercise goal for tomorrow is to do this same thing TWICE.

I planned menus before shopping today.  I did have a burger and fries for lunch in the midst of the shopping but still stayed under my calorie budget for the day.  Supper consisted of a pork steak baked in the oven with some BBQ sauce, mashed potatoes and a mixture of onions, mushrooms, zucchini and yellow squash cooked in a splash of olive oil.  YUM.  They were wonderful.

I have taken all my meds today except the ones I take at bedtime and I will be taking those very soon.

My goal for my house tomorrow is to spend 15 minutes in my bedroom, 15 minutes in the living room and 30 minutes in my kitchen.

Overall, I am very happy with what was done today and the goals that have been set.

                       Until tomorrow . . . . . . . . . .
