Day 11: Friday at last!

I can't possibly TELL you how GOOD food sounds about right now. Chicken, fish, salad, mexican, sandwiches, eggs, potatoes... I am famished. And NOT my stomach. My BRAIN. My mind is going nuts.

Another stressful Friday. Getting work done. A lot more left undone. But keeping pace. Not as much stress. But things could be better.

Had the church game night tonight. Did well enough. Sister M***** was there, and looked to be in good spirits. Next weekend is the church ladies retreat... it'll be just me and the kids for 3 days, 2 nights. That will be more difficult.

Aside from that... I don't note any real big mental changes. I'm down 8 pounds from the first time I weighed myself, 5 days in. About 25 pounds down from my starting weight (that I remember, I didn't weigh myself then). My wife hugged me and told me that she noticed the difference in my "circumference". Nice. At this PACE, I'll lose 50-75 lbs total. I'm a bit uncomfortable with that, but it comes with the territory. 2000 Calories a day is the recommended daily amount for a man at rest, and someone like me with larger mass and muscle mass needs more. Losing weight is nice, but I don't want to lose my health with it.

Changes continue to happen in my life. Little by little. God knows what he's doing.
