I am trying ................

I gained about 8 pounds over the Thanksgiving Holidays, and I am trying to lose some weight. I would like to get back to that 195 or under. I am getting to that point where I dred going to the bathroom. Not because of any internal problems, the problem is, standing up. Knees, ankles, legs, hips, all hurt.

Yesterday we were at WalMart and I decided to go for those little TV dinners, and they are only $1, plus, portion control, should get my stomach shrunk down a little, and only a buck, some were 93 cents. If I eat seven of those a week, only $7, lose weight and save us some money. Since we didn't get a raise in our SS this year, we are having to cut corners. What better way than me eating for a little over $1 a day, and I lose weight.

I had an English Muffin for breakfast, and this evening started to get a little hungry. Banquet Salisbury Steak dinner with mashed potatoes and corn. Microwave only 6 minutes.

It was not too bad, the spoonful of potatoes was a little runny, spoon full of corn was pretty good, Salisbury steak was pretty good, used the extra gravy on the potatoes. All in all, not too bad. Still a little hungry, but satisfied. I could see the weight coming down.

Well, we had some ice cream sandwiches for dessert, pretty good, lime ice cream and a chocolate type cookie, so I had one.

Now, an hour later, sitting here at the laptop, working my heart out, internet marketing, which so far, over all these years, has gotten me about $30, but I try very hard.

"Would you like a Calzone, from Pizza Hut?"

I am never gonna lose that weight.
