MY FRIDAY NIGHT did not include a movie, like we do so often. Our fridge was acting up. Hubby went to work on it. After some tweaking on it most of the evening and working after bedtime at 3 in the morning, it's better this morning. That's a HUGE relief. I wasn't wanting to go shopping for a fridge. Hopefully the fridge will continue to cool like it is suppose to.
Instead Friday evening, I read about health issues, marked irises in the yard, trimmed some of the ones lying down because of the rains then rested when my back began to ache so I had to sit down. I worked on sorting papers and when I had caught my breath, I worked on organizing the small pantry that's housing nuts, seeds, steel cut and rolled oatmeal, chickpeas, black beans, olives, and kidney beans. Cereals including Ezekiel Cereals. Tomato sauces, pizza sauces, spaghetti sauces, soups and crackers. Some misc.
This particular pantry is for quick access to some breakfast foods and salad ingredients throughout the day. I like the way it is taking shape.
I almost can say, this project is finished for the day.
Today, I continued filing important receipts and statements until my eyes crossed. Had to take a break from this as my mind gets weighed down. Moved back to the pantry. Worked a little then went outside to tag the Irises. Back acts up...back inside to sit for a spell. LUNCH TIME.
No Breakfast today. Straight to LUNCH. Tuna on a bed of spinach and spring greens. Peppered the tuna and added pineapple slices for sweetness. Tuna without mayo isn't my cup of tea, so I wanted something sweet with the greens and tuna. It worked well. Later, my snack was a very small can of pork and beans. Sometimes I have a hankering for pork and beans. No piece of pork fat in this can.
As I sat, I watched the Biblical Nutritionist on youtube. I discovered her and started watching Annette Reeder. Liked what she said. Years ago I did the Daniel Diet. It worked for me then, but I went off of it and the rest is history. I believe I will give her SUPER FUEL MEAL a try in the near future.

We have really changed the way we eat, but believe I CAN step this up a notch. If I am really serious about reducing weight, then I have to seriously do something different than the American Diet. I have to have lifestyle changes for LIFE. Movement and exercises must be a part of LIFE.
With following Annette's SUPER FUEL MEAL, the Daniel Diet and what we are already doing by going organic, low carb, few sweets, no soda, no coffee, few snacks...if the weight doesn't come off then I know my not having a thyroid is the devil.
I believe I need to take a breather before returning to the yard to mark more Irises. Later, more papers to go through. MAYBE a movie and relaxation.
Surely a Saturday that satisfies.
God's PEACE to you,
