After relieving some of my feelings in yesterday's post it seems anticlimactic to report that this morning I finally spoke directly to the surgeon's secretary and she was able to squeeze me in...

Horrible horrible horrible weather this morning. It was raining when I got up, when I started work, at lunchtime... But it was only cold yet sunny after work and I got 2 miles in and then made it onto the climber for 30 minutes. Once I can drive again that will go up... And the walking will go down :-( but that's just the way it needs to be if I want to lose weight, I can walk in my sleep and that's exactly what my body does now... So I need to up the intensity, and I need to be careful how I do it, at least for a while...
Food today:
Breakfast: pork & apple sausage with vegetable mini frittatas
Lunch: raw ginger soup with 2 slices gf bread (I couldn't help it, it was that or the real thing)
Dinner: rib steak, baked sweet potato & broccoli
Snacks: cashew nut butter; pickled cockles
