Yep, we're going with it. (slightly scattered update, ahoy!)

Main

The difference a day or two can make.

Thanks to my period, my normal weight patterns, and miscellaneous food and exercise influence, my weight at the beginning of the week kept bouncing around the 192 and high 191 range. This morning? 190.6.

Mid week is kinder to me, apparently (and Aunt Flo is decidedly NOT).

Another thing I must just accept and not fight - somewhere along the line, I inexplicably became sensitive to caffeine. I spent several hours last night jittery, tossing and turning in bed, with weird racing heartbeats every few seconds, thanks to a glass or two of iced tea in the hours before bed. I have noticed the same issue, more dramatically, with coffee, but apparently tea does me in as well. So if I want a functional morning I need a restful night, and thusly the caffeinated drinks must be much further from bedtime than an hour or two. It appears I take about three or four hours to fully metabolize caffeine, so none of it after 7 pm should suffice.

The lesson for today, folks? You ARE your own science experiment! Play around with the variables and figure out what is best for you. Also, be completely unsurprised when it changes. What didn't bother my system three years ago is kryptonite to me now. And as my body weight diminishes, the effects of stimulants and depressants (like caffeine and alcohol) become more pronounced. All of this is interesting to me, and just another piece of the puzzle of living life healthy and well.

See you on Monday, it's the day before I fly out to California for my brother's wedding and I am working my tail off to have a number in the 180's to report to you by then. I WILL make this goal! I'm so close I can taste it. Adios!

Hope the wedding is perfect and you get to the 180's! I still find foods/drinks I am sensitive to - in fact my post for tomorrow is about that!
