I'm tired of being good around food I told Jeff. I'm tired of wanting to drink wine and eat and eat and at the same time not really wanting to do that. I think I am in a serious state of conflict, and, I'm tired.
I woke up a lot during the night, and stayed awake after waking up at around 5 AM. And I had to have a fasting blood draw at 8:30 this morning and then I had to teach at PVCC and then go back down to tutor the Japanese businessman late this afternoon. There's a lot of driving involved when you live a half hour from everything, especially when you are tired.
So tonight, I'll have a healthy dinner cooked by dear Jeff and be in a much better frame of mind in the morning. I'm never at my best when I'm tired.

170.2 Great News!
I left the house at 7:00 AM and just returned home. It's after 4 PM. It was a great day but I'm a little tired now. Okay, a BIG TIRED now.
I do have great news! Our daughter Miranda and her husband are expecting a baby girl in June. We are so excited, and since we have three fabulous grandsons, we are very pleased at the prospect of having a granddaughter! And, I'm going to be able to lift her, hold her tight, carry her around and participate in all the wonderful activities that await us all as she joins our family. What a great gift as a result of the weight loss and work I've done to get stronger. Come on little gal, I'm ready!

188.0 Tired or Hungry?
Oh, I'm tired! It's been a good day and a busy one so I'm not complaining. I am just tired.
One of the things I've come to recognize while losing weight is that when I am tired I'm much more tempted to eat, and it's not because I am hungry. I think that I think (there must be a better way to express this) if I eat, I won't be tired anymore. That works when your body really needs food, but I don't think it helps if fatigue is the problem, not hunger.
Stretching out for a while or getting involved in doing something is a much better option than heading to the pantry or refrigerator. This is all part of being aware that I write about frequently. When I go into a zone where I don't think first about what I'm doing is when I can really sabotage my efforts. And, I did that just before I sat down to write this blog. Obviously, I'm still learning.
