Sleep!
Last night I actually got a good night's sleep. I didn't have to take any sleeping pills to go to sleep and mostly slept through the night. I woke up at noon feeling good. I was going to go for a walk, but then I decided that if I was going to be on my feet all day volunteering, then taking a walk right beforehand wasn't a good idea. Instead, after I volunteered, I came home, took a nap, cooked dinner and then walked. Just a short trip around my apartment complex, but it was something.
Volunteering went okay... I was only able to stay for an hour and a half before I got too tired to continue. I didn't drink any coffee or anything in the morning because I felt good. I kept yawning, and that looks bad. So I went home. I slept for like an hour and then cooked dinner. It was chicken legs and flavored rice. I'm starting again at 235.4 pounds. Let's see what I can do from there!

Wonderful progress with the no sleeping pills! And the walk - YES!
your food sounds wonderful!
i need to do the same thing, desparately need to lose weight. i think that is what is making me tired lately. weight and the rain. boy, do i miss being 102 instead of 192, one day i was 186 a couple of months ago and even that thrilled me, have no idea WHY i lost weight, but it went right back up. grrrr. i\'m not that tall so its a huge problem. wish i would fix it. i used to be skinny, my entire life, but now i have been obese for about 12 years. the lowest normal weight for my height is 140.
they claim a growing child needs a minimum of 60 minutes of active exercise/movement....they are growing and need that....an adult isn\'t growing so we need how much. i think exercise is key, way more than food. though sugar is super bad.
some people mall walk or go to super walmart and walk with the help of driving a cart around while they do it. nicely air-conditioned. walking on sand is supposed to be the best because it exercises every muscle in your body. wish i would do that.
best of luck with your diet! xxoo
