Well...I'm back to work. I teach a 4 hour class on Friday evenings and Saturday mornings. It's my side gig. LOL My way of giving back to my community.
I figured it was the best way to see if I'm really energized to take on work. It's more active, meaning I move around more, then my other job. But, my "real" job is also 10 hours of sitting. I work an alternative schedule so that I can have my Fridays off.
Other then that, I'm doing well with my food intake. It's increased, and the water is going down smoother. What I have noticed, is that the amount of food I can eat at any one sitting is different. I can now get 4 oz/half a cup down with no problem....at times. For instance this morning I had about 4 oz of a yougart smoothie. Then my next meal was about 4 oz of mashed potatoes (boosted with soy milk for protein) mixed with a little tomato/beef soup/broth. When I tried it again several hours later...I barely got 2.5 oz down. And, it's still got me feeling a little stuffed.
Well, I'll check in later.
Until....
