Did I say no bread in 2024? Need to cross that off the list of New Years resolutions. Failed on day one. Failed on intermittent fasting too. I had an Asian chicken salad around 1:30pm and that was supposed to be it for the day. Around 6:30 I was hungry and started thinking about the loaf of Oroweat oatnut bread in the freezer. Finally I made a piece of toast with butter. This morning I added it to the food journal and was happy to see I was still under 100 grams net carbs. So that will be my focus, not the bread if I can eat it and be under my carb goal.
Yesterday I made a cup of coffee and then realized the half and half had spoiled. Really bad. Not sure how, the sell by date was days away and I hadn't left the container out on the counter. Well since the coffee was ready I decided to try to drink it black with 1 teaspoon of sugar. Not as bad as I expected.I've always tried drinking coffee less sweet and never gave a thought to 1 or 2 tablespoons of half and half. Drank it the same way this morning, even though I bought half and half yesterday - for porch kitty.
This morning I made half a piece of toast and ate it dry. My carbs will be under 100 grams today but I can't have a glass of milk or the pineapple I had planned on. Last night I made oatmeal for today and tomorrow so that's most of today's carbs are coming from. I use milk to make the oatmeal and will slice a banana in it. No sugar added.
My knee is feeling so much better! I'm not sure I even need to see the specialist if and when I get a call from his office. I spent 3 full days mostly in bed with 4 pillows to prop me up and a few more pillows to raise the leg. Only got up to feed the pets and let Bobby out and to go to the kitchen to get meals. And to the bathroom. I even kept a gallon of water on the nightstand to refill the water glass. Yesterday I had to get up and get some things done though. Went to the grocery store around 8am. Came home and did some laundry and vacuumed all the hard floors and used the Bona mop to clean the guest bath and hallway. Was planning on mopping the kitchen and dining room and living room today.
