 Hello everyone, I learned how to make a good sauce for shrimp, chicken, and steak.  You combine mayonnaise, barbeque sauce, soy sauce, and honey.  And it is so yummy. It is similar to yum yum sauce but possibly better. 

I ate some shrimp earlier and then some chocolate.  I think tomorrow I will stock up on water instead of soda and see if that will make me lose five pounds faster. I mean even two weeks without soda might make a difference. I hope to see a difference in two weeks.

Is this blog going to turn into a countdown of pounds. Well I do not know but it is a very journally blog anyway.  Is everyone getting tired of each other online? I do not know. I think we are tired of the news and what the algorithms did to us.

What should I do now. Maybe prepare for inspection.  I took out the trash.  Now I need to do dishes, pick up clothes, clear table, and then I will mostly be ready to do the rest tomorrow morning.  So I will wash dishes in a while. I think I will put the dishes in the sink soon.

I can feel that I did not eat as much today. I can feel it in my mind which means I feel the effect of less sugar but it isn't necessarily making a weight impact yet.  That is tricky, to lose the reward of it before it actually helps you.

But it will be okay.  Who knows if I will actually stick with this but it is something instead of nothing.

 Hello everyone, this is Refried. It is Thursday, January 1. Happy New Years. I haven't figured out resolutions but I decided to start treadmilling today. I moved my treadmill near the plug, which was one of the things that was preventing it before.  And I think I will be treadmilling for about twelve minutes a few times a day. I think I will be motivated.  I might try to limit sodas to one per day or something just to see if I can make a difference. I am really only 5-10 pounds away from being more normal for me personally. I mean really I am not in a good situation but any difference will be good.

So that is nice. I had some dreams last night that motivated me, and it was kind of interesting.  I visited the seminary for something, I went to the Echo church's pastor's house and found sunglasses under a car and my friend from my other church was at the seminary thing i went to. So that is interesting. I woke up motivated to get the treadmill goal going.  Interestingly, a plot in the Echo dream was that I gave my pastor's kid a headache, so I thought I should tithe more.  But I know that is not the thing and I decided to treadmill.  And then I had a mascot dream where I was questioning some mascot traditions and then was questioned myself about something that had to do with the military.  So I also felt motivated to get back in shape after that. I mean maybe why blab all the dreams but that was what did it and I immediately fixed the treadmill set up in my room.

So okay. will it work. I think even building some muscle is good and I have been walking more for about a month. So hopefully I will reverse the losses from last year. 

Anyway I will say again that I think mental health people hurt my health in all ways and caused permanent damage to my life and outlook and advocacy that impacts other people.
