Dinner

Snack
- Planters Nut and Chocolate Trail Mix 100 Calories

And it says I have 795 calories left that I can eat. So, my boss who is the one who got me on this diet pointed out to me today that I am not getting enough calories. Something to as which I didn't know or think about at all. Apparently I am not getting enough calories, I thought Calories were not good for you. I had no idea there was such a thing as not enough calories. But apparently you need to eat enough calories so you can burn off calories. Like I said, this is all new information to me. April also told me that I need to snack more during the day, which I haven't been doing. I haven't been doing that because I used to have a problem with eating when I was bored and I feel like if I snack a lot during the day that I will fall back into that habit which I don't want to do. BUT, if I snack on the right things such as string cheese and almonds etc then I will be okay. You're encouraged to snack a lot through the day but I still have that fear of eating/snacking too much in the day like I used to do and gaining weight. SO, I will overcome that fear and snack healthy throughout the day which I have been doing but I haven't been eating really. That is my problem, not eating enough in the day. As you can see from what I ate today I am not eating enough and when you don't eat enough your body stores fat and you gain weight. So the solution to the problem that I thought I had is really the problem so I will change that. I am starting on my second 90 Day Challenge and April said when she started her 90 Day Challenge that she had the same problem, she wasn't eating enough. So I am going to start eating more, healthy food and snacks of course. I am going to make this second 90 Day Challenge count. If it at first you don't succeed try again. And that is what I plan on doing.

My Day Off

So Wednesday Jen and I were off work so we got to spend the day off together. I spent the day cleaning the house and doing laundry. I was able to finally tackle cleaning the bathroom. Then around 2 or so I went with Jen to her doctors appointment she had. She had went to Rockingham Memorial Hospital because her ribs were hurting and she wasn't feeling good so her doctors appointment was a follow up about that. The hospital said she might have a Pulmonary Embolism. Plus she had to get her medicines refilled. She got her flu shot and they took blood to rule out the embolism. Not sure if she has gotten the results from that yet. While we were in the doctor's office the VA called me back about an eye appointment. I didn't answer the phone so they left a voicemail. Then the lawyer from Connecticut called while we were in there and that call went to voicemail too. Then the VA Clinic called about my dizzy spells and they left a voicemail. Everyone decided to call back while I was in the doctors office. After that Jen and I went to Panera Bread for dinner. I had Rigatoni and an Iced Mocha and Jen had the Tuna I believe. After that we went home and I finished laundry.

Last night I was asleep and Jen asked me if I was cold and she said I said yes so she put another blanket over me. I was cold but I hadn't remembered her asking me that until she asked me just now. I vaguely remember her asking me that but I do remember her putting another blanket on me. It was cold last night and we even had the heat on. I hate this cold weather its too cold for me. I am cold natured, cold blooded, always cold.

Dinner

Mopped the living room and bathroom and swept the floor. Been doing laundry still. Jen and I went and got dinner at Wendys. We both ate a chicken sandwich mine was grilled of course which is the way I like it. Outside with the dogs now and Jen and I are out here talking. Its not as bad out here as it could be. Jen decided to go inside where its warm. One of the cats are in the bedroom window meowing. Guess Jen forgot the cat was in there.
