Oh well.

I tried to stay in bed longer.  And, did.  Waking, initially, at a bit after 17:00, just crawling out here at almost 19:00.  I... wanted another hour or two, but that just couldn't happen.  Sassy was fed first thing.  And... water is heating for coffee.

I realized something as I was waking.  I have a waist.  At least when laying down.  I haven't had a waist in almost forty years.  I... now... really do.  When standing or sitting, a bit of the puff comes back,  But it's still becoming a waist, clearly.  When laying down, it is absolutely a waist.  So... different.

The fat loss started with the hard tire around the center, and then started on the soft undertire sort of structure.  It takes off from the back and sides first, leaving the front to shrink, sort of becoming a belly plateau.  It's... and odd thing.  I have seen between forty five and fifty five pounds come off in two to four months.  So I have seen the loss in speed view, compared to most people.  It's... sort of interesting.  I have seen more weight loss in at most four months than most see in several years?  Yeah, really.  So seriously fast paced.

The misery of it was more severe.  I'm not sure someone could work AND lose this kind of weight.  I don't think you can function.  After the first month, maybe?  Or you could begin working again, at a slower pace?  It... would take you off your feet.  Hell, it might kill you.  I... just don't die well.

Out of blood sugar test strips.  I used the last of the hundred I bought.  The VA was supposed to send more.  Didn't.  I'll... call them Monday.  I can't afford more this month, or I'd just order them.  Besides, I just bought the last three month supply.  Their turn.  F'ers.  Picked a good time to cheat on carnivore though.  :p

Food?  Dunno.  Not sure if I am hungry.  I do have soup.  Oh!  And eggs!  Egg production is slow, in the winter, or variously according to chicken molting or such.  So, didn't thinky they would be on delivery.  But, they were available.  Asked if I still wanted them.  Yep!  So... I... may make a custard.  And, boil some.  But have some just for frying.  Sometimes I get behind on food.  Or lose track.  But... the idea is there.  And eggs can be annoying.  But when gentle food is needed, their is nothing so good.  Especially with custards and a few other gentler recipes.  I thought about popovers, but... that... takes things I'm not sure are... right for me to eat.

I... won't let this batch go.  I... need something extra to eat, something... nice, gentle.  Oh, but with cinammon, and/or other such spices.

I'm thinking, for me, half the recipe.  But that should still make enough for a solid meal, then leftovers.  Two warm, one ramakin in the fridge, or two?  Can't tell what volume those cups she is using are.  But... should work.

On with... waking.  Good evening, goodnight to those going on to bed, and so on.
