I got in a hearty walk Saturday at MyFella's, but the wind was cold and cutting, so I didn't push it any longer than I had to, but I sort of insisted on a walk after that wretched lunch.
Ate poorly all weekend, unless you count that I had 5, count 'em 5, home made biscuits that MyFella's dad made Sunday morning. Yum! They weren't very big though.
I'll be able to do better back at work. Grilled chickens and vegetables will be on the menu!

Saturday's slug burger
There are hardly words in my vocabulary to describe this culinary deceit. It is at the same time disgusting beyond normal words, and yet completely unidentifiable and bland. MyFella loves them, and so I tried it. After a few bites, I had to turn the sandwich to him and say, "WHAT is this?" It wasn't ground beef. It wasn't good. It wasn't bad. It just was.
It was a deep fried patty of something. Something without real taste or real substance. Something that tasted only because of the condiments on it. And perhaps because of that tasteless ness, it seemed all the more an affront to nature.
A quick search on the internet turned up some chats about it that seem to define it as made up with hamburger meat and lots of filler, predominantly soy bean but in the past corn meal or potato flakes.
Double ugh!

112/84
139/60
110/85
That b.p. of mine just goes anywhere.
I'm sure supper last night of fried chicken strips and lots of pasta didn't help a bit.
With the additional fiber I've been trying to eat, I had three poops today. You know I hate pooping. I remember hating pooping all my life. But the fiber is supposed to help lower cholesterol. So there you go.
Had not walked all week. Between the bronchitis and sinus infection, coupled with the cold and rainy weather, I just had to pass on walking outside. So today I managed two 20 minute walks. Every little thing helps.

Saturday morning, 4-5-08
I haven't walked a foot all week. Between the bronchitis and the cold, rainy weather, I just couldn't do it. Maybe I should have, but I'm having enough trouble with snot and congestion and 3 prescriptions to over come it all.
A couple of days this week I had a package of tuna with wheat thins for lunch and I like it. I like the rough texture of the wheat thins and I like tuna right out of the package. Yesterday I had the lemon pepper tuna. So long as housekeeping gets the garbage in my office, it should be o.k.
BP today is 140/82 with 79 pulse.

B.P. this morning is 120/74 with pulse of 76.
I've ate a package of tuna with wheat thins for lunch yesterday, but blew it for supper with red meat on a cheese burger. And it's just been too icky to walk outside.
Oh well.

Today is my Daddy's birthday.
Morning blood pressure: 164/81 bp 78.
Yesterday for lunch I had a packet of tuna with wheat thins. Supper was some carefully prepared fajitas. In an electric skillet, almost no oil. spinach, peppers, etc. with some 'healthy' tortillas. Probably had a lot of sodium with the fajita seasoning.

April Fool's Day. yeah! lol.
Blood pressure 139/77 with a pulse of 90 at 7:a.m. The last two days I've been sucking down cold meds trying to stop a horrible nasal drip that has me gagging, so I've felt like I could feel my b.p. all out of whack.
Ugh!
