Losing is going so slow I hit a couple of yard sales in my neighborhood and went ahead and bought pants that fit my bloated body. At the first one since I know the gal and it was the end of the sale for her she said to just go ahead and take the things I picked for free. Since her disabled grandson was doing the sale I went ahead and gave him $. The second one was at the end of the sale also, and all the items were .50 so I went hog wild, even taking some things 1 size too small with hope in my heart. Everything I picked (including 2 wool hats) was only $10.00. I guess I was really in a groove because I went to the Goodwill yesterday and bought 3 tops and more pants, some of which are a size too small but I don't have much anymore of that size either. I had taken everything "in" and cut off the excess in most of them previously. In the future when I lose I will not cut off the excess when I take them in. It is taking me so long to lose this time I decided to just go ahead and get what I see at garage sales when handy.
I'm sure spending a lot of time taking out seams I have sewed in to make pants smaller, and even then they aren't big enough now. I had made all my 8's into 4's, and I can't even wear an 8. I hope I can find them in the attic when I get back to that size someday. They are all mixed up with smaller sizes. By fall, maybe I'll go through them again. I'm only losing a pound a month so it will be months before I can wear a smaller size, and perhaps never be able to fit into the bulk of my wardrobe again. Since I'm pear-shaped I've given up on most dresses. At 60 I still had a slim waist, but over the last 5 years, my shape has changed completely. On many skirts, I just took out the waistband after 70. Now even "A" lines hang terribly because of my stomach. Getting old is embarrassing.

Yesterday my husband asked me why my stomach is so big? I didn't answer. Yes, he's right and it has never been this bad in my entire life. Yes, I'm up 20 lbs from a year ago and 30 lbs from 3 years ago which was too low anyway. I've lost 3 1/4 inches in height and often bend forward from my back hurting so much, it affects how I look. The funny thing is this is day 70 for me with no sweets or wine and he told me I shouldn't be counting, that it just brings sweets and wine to memory for me. Yes, it does, that is why I need to count to keep myself on the straight and narrow for the sake of my brain, if not my body. I'm losing very slowly, only 5 lbs in the last 2 months. But I'm glad for it anyway. As most of you know, it's hard to be strict. For me, at my age (80) I need to give up bread to lose faster. Ten years ago I weighed 113 and was still eating bread, but the older we get the harder it is. I was 3 inches taller then, and more active. But even at 113, he told me I was letting myself go. I'm wrong to keep the memory of that. It's one of my worse faults.

Do I still qualify for eating "reasonably well" while binging on bread and pasta, but have held the line on sweets and wine? This is day 51 going without those two categories, and I sure miss them. The weight would have gone up a lot more had I been indulging in sugar or alcohol and not intermittent fasting for about 16 hours each day. When I am upset the weight doesn't seem important. I'm ashamed to say it, but my husband has the ability to keep me upset. And I will admit that what is coming in our country (and the world) upsets me too. The Lord holds on to me and I am grateful but I struggle (wrongly) with fear. I keep thanking Him for my blessings, which are many and asking Him to forgive my fear and other negative attitudes.

This has been a hard week. My neighbor's college son died Monday. They don't know what happened but that he had a seizure and the police found him in his room unconscious. The coroner is releasing the body today but said it would be months before she receives the report. She is the neighbor I am the closest to and because my son was killed by a drunk driver at 21, it hurts a lot seeing the pain she is in. My husband is angry at me for feeling hurt (for her) and my spaghetti sauce separating. I hope you are laughing at the stupidity of that.

The good news in my life is: that my husband is doing better since being in the hospital and off oxygen for hours at a time during the day, and not thinking to sleep downstairs. He has been gently pulling weeds. Also the lymphatic lump in his neck from the melanoma cancer shrunk further. The oncologist is shocked since there is no chemo for it. Also, our daughter's cancer markers are substantially better with her new chemo. Her last chemo must not have worked because her numbers were skyrocketing. She has lost a lot of weight (and strength) and wears a size 0. But she and her husband bought electric bicycles so she can go up inclines and they are riding a lot. They just got back from camping in Yosemite and Bass Lake. She is a tough cookie. It's been 5 1/2 years since she was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. They still can not find it in her breast but it spread to all her bones. A very unusual case. Come, Lord Jesus, come.

It's taken me an entire month to lose 1 pound. Yeah, yeah, I know it's better than putting on a pound, but I did that too. Up and down, up and down. At this rate, I'm not sure I can live long enough to get back to normal for me. My husband just got out of the hospital. At the best hospital in California UCLA after 3 days in Emergency, they couldn't figure out what was (and still is) causing his oxygen saturation to go so low. I stayed with him, but couldn't sleep sitting on that hard little chair. He is now on oxygen 24 hours a day but it still keeps dipping. This is a whole new ballgame. He talks about moving downstairs and putting a twin bed in the living room. He doesn't want a hospital bed, so maybe we will buy a used twin. My girlfriend asked if I would still want to sleep upstairs and be that far from him with his breathing problems. Wow, I guess not. So it seems I may be sleeping on the couch.

We were in "Emergency" so long because UCLA is so busy. Emergency was entirely full with 105 people plus the ones not checked in yet plus Urgent Care upstairs. There were 32 people waiting for a room. They called my husband's problem an Emphysema Flair. His ankles were not swollen, so he had just taken 1 diuretic. This just crept up on us but has not been resolved with even taking 2 diuretics a day now. He had taken a 14-day course of antibiotics 3 weeks ago for his H-Pylori infection in his stomach. During that 14 days, he had ocular migraines for a week and a half. Those antibiotics are brutal and they didn't even work.

This is day 39 for me not eating any sweets or desserts or wine. Plus it is day 3 with no bread, although I'm not sure I can keep that long term. Maybe I will allow it once in a while. I need to do more to lose some weight. Ninety percent of my clothes are for a different "person", a smaller person. Since my bones are so thin and I have so little muscle, I look 20 lbs heavier than the scale says.

It's been 10 days since I've recorded my weight and it has taken me that long to almost get back to what I weighed 10 days ago. My husband has had many doctor appointments and then we go out to eat afterward. Yes, yes I know I could be having a salad, something light, or practice portion control at the restaurant but I don't have that much discipline. The bad news is that 90% of my clothes don't fit me, and I'm not sure I'll ever be able to get back to a normal weight for me especially since I've shrunk down to 5'. Since my bones are so thin what would be a normal weight on someone else is way overweight on my small frame. I am discouraged about losing. The good news is today is day 18 of not having any sweets or wine. I did have about 1/4 of a bite of Creme Brulee without the sugar topping to taste my husband's dessert. I don't feel guilty not counting that tiny bit of custard in the grand scheme of things. Also good is that my husband is doing well considering all his many problems. Next week he will have a PET Scan to see if his cancer is attacking his organs. The lymph node where it had spread has still shrunk and he isn't sick from the melanoma yet. There is no chemotherapy for this aggressive cancer, so it's incredible that it has been 10 months since he was diagnosed. I believe the Lord is giving him every chance possible to "come" to Him. So many people are praying for his salvation but he seems indifferent. I'm thankful to the Lord for so very many things! I have a comfortable place to live, a warm bed, a dry roof, money to buy food, and there is food in the store to buy (for now). And nobody is shooting at us yet.
