Day Six/ Step One

(sigh) I wanted someone to take a new set of photos of me, yesterday, but, that didn't happen. Maybe it wouldn't really matter, considering how bloated like a weasel I am, lately.

I will say this about that, though: This mozorning, I measured my waist and it was back down to 46". I think part of the swelling was the increase in fiber, from the oatmeal.

I am still feeling tired and ill, though, so it might just be that.

Anyway, this morning, I had a 7-up (12 oz) and a Shrimp Cup O'Noodle with added lemon juice and cumin.  Later, for lunch, I had a plate of the same spaghetti dish that we had for dinner last night. Tonight, I'll probably cook up some extra chicken and veggies to throw into it, to stretch it out for everyone.

Also, of course, I am having my tea with turmeric and ginger. This time, it's cold tea as I made a glass last night, before going over to my sister's, and, so, it was in the refrigerator all night. The spices do not blend well into really cold tea. They settled in a bit, after the glass spent some time sitting on my bedside table, though.

I lost track of how many 7-Ups I've had. Let's call it four. It's probably been four.

I used leftover Spanish rice, asparagus, more noodles, more chicken, leeks, a little white onion, kale, chicken bouillon, orange marmalade, and various spices, plus olive oil in the (re)creation of dinner. It's kind of good, but, very weird. I've had one small plate full.  Not as much as I had yesterday.

Right now, I am drinking what is probably the fourth 7-Up and another glass of black tea (not together), unsweetened.
