It was so disappointing to miss church today. I had a rough Saturday night. I could not get to sleep. I was wired, but had not had any caffeine. Well, maybe that is not true. I did give in to temptations. That is Temptations with a capital "T", made by Jello. Only 60 calories in each tiny container of dark chocolate moose. Mmm mmm! So good! There is not even a half cup serving in each one, but they are so rich that I am satisfied with just a few bites. I have been making one tiny container last a day, or two, or even three. Yay! Go me! I think maybe I had more bites than usual too close to bedtime. :)
Whatever the reason, I was not falling asleep and then I got this raging pain in my foot that went down between my 2nd and 3rd toe on the left foot. I prayed it away. A few minutes later it came back again. I got up and took a prescription pain pill. I hardly ever have to do that, but I was desperate. One thing after another kept me awake until about 6 AM. I finally fell asleep from exhaustion. When the alarm went off, I was in no shape to drive to church. I went back to sleep and got up at 4 PM.
I think I've hit a speed bump. No, that's not what it's called. It's called a plateau - where the scale just is a pound below, a pound above or stuck at the same reading day after day.
Still dancing around 263 - somedays less, somedays more. Sigh. Hope to get down to at least 260 this week and not go above that.
Persevere!
