Burrell, we all SHARED the dessert. So the calories didn't count!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yay tai chi and yoga! Both things I would like to do but haven't been able to fit into my life lately.

Aerobic options: walk, bike, dance, group classes at a gym, you-tube/netflix classes, jump rope, climbing stairs, jumping jacks

But I eat better overall if I don't give myself a hard time when I eat a bit indulgently.

I believe in this approach whole-heartedly. I am generally against shame, and particularly when it comes to eating.

I get am either way obsessive about tracking both food and exercise or I don't pay attention at all. Both approaches have their pros and cons.

I get obsessive about tracking my food, but I kind of need that right now.

Oh, fats. Been meaning to ask. My triglycerides TRIPLED in a year, weight down minisculey, blood sugar down, bmi down, blood pressure down. HDL is down 30% and LDL is up 18% so clearly all that fatness trend is going wrong, but to triple in one year, it pinged me as way way wonky.

I have no idea about that stuff. Triglycerides are bad?

I need to get back to tracking my food, but it's such a tightrope act for me. It can too easily lead to me not eating because I get obsessive about hitting my numbers.

I refuse to let my eating rule my life to that extent, and I'm diabetic. I know what I should eat, and instituting a system where I get obsessive about what I consume will not enhance my life.

The phone guys are in the manhole. I wish that were as exciting as it sounds. But no; they are literally in a manhole. Or at least one is.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The Manhole was my favorite name for a gay bar.

Being in front of a computer as much as I am makes tracking much easier than if I was out and about a lot. I don't think I am obsessive about it, but it is kinda like a puzzle game to me. I can swap this for that or skip this or add that. If I know I'm going to eat out then other meals that day slide toward low calorie low fat options.

Also I just don't buy some stuff anymore since I won't be mindful with it. Tostitos lime chips, cereal, sweet cinnamon almonds,
