selling yourself short

Peppers

Peppers and eggs - 

kinda turned things red

Lots of eggs these days

I am working nights for a week or two

As a personal favor to a case I've had.

I am *not* a night person and it's pretty hard

to make the transition... I feel a little bloaty and puffy...

First, I was just working mega hours...

Now, I am still long hours, but deep nights.

Thank goodness for cable!

Last year when I tried Paleo, I did this same bloating-up trick.

Found out I am not one to eat Sweet Taters.

And frankly, it broke me little heart.

This year, I found out that the fructose in wine

Even does the same thing to me.

More pouting from me.

Not that Fructose directly influences blood glucose...

It can.... but really, fructose raises blood FRUCTOSE levels.

Who knew, eh?

That is the truth about how I feel now,

But I try not to dwell on the hard stuff.

I work hard and keep my focus,

And eat quality foods when ever I can...

Like this awesome KerryGold Herb Butter!

And lots of brisket. And Zero "cheating" at all.

The Bites, Licks and Tastes kill LC diets.

Not to mention the Heartburn.

Not worth a bite or a lick or a taste!

And no matter how much weight I lose, 

I am only ever one bite away from

Lasping back to being a Heavy Person.

Amazing how that works.

One bite, one plate, one week - just "this one time!"

Maintenance is such a cruel mistress!

When you are only 5'2" like I am,

5 pounds shows up "big" time!

Thank goodness for Pat helping me out!

That is all... thanks, y'all, for checking on me!
