I came out of a low, started doing well.... Got into a high. My Mind started racing faster with the possibilities and I tired myself out by thinking too much and not just simply doing.

Reducing my weight will be hard because I have already reduced my weight from 306 to 286, getting rid of my initial excess weight. I hit a brick wall about a month ago so I was not aggressive towards reducing my weight but played a stratgy of enjoying occasional comfort foods, junk foods, processd food, pastas and breads. NOW I believe my body has adjusted to being around 286 - 288 so I hope a very strong vegetable, grain and broth regimen will give me enough encouraging results to push through hour to hour to day thru day for 7 days to maintain 285 or less. This morning I had a small bowl of a bulgur wheat and spinach dish.
For cravings throughout the day.... I MUST remember liquids. @DonaldDraper. (Note... always seeing that "Drink Water" thread helps. thx 😊 )

Morning tasks / Clean kitchen / Sort some paperwork. + Make breakfast. DONE!

7:45am: Clean up office desk entirely | File paperwork accordingly | Frame picture for a friend.

I have a jar of jelly beans on my kitchen table. For the past month I've been careful not to grossly overeat but I do suffer from the hand to mouth eating problem. I didn't eat jelly beans every day but a lot of days I would dip into them and have about 8-16 throughout the day.

Now as those colorful little beads are tempting me, I thought about removing them..... BUT instead I'm using that clorful jar to remind me to drink water. An exercise in discipline and the need to break the hand to mouth reflex this week; plus the extra water will help clean out the toxins and curb my cravings.
