April 17
Philippians 3:20
For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ.
After Michelle promised Susan she would diet with her, she im-mediately began to regret it. All Susan did was talk about food. Susan had a one-track mind, and she made dieting so much harder for Michelle. Michelle constantly tried to change the direction of their conversations, but Susan always managed to bring the topic back to food. Finally, Michelle told Susan that if she didn't stop, she would no longer be able to be a diet partner with her. The two worked together and found that with some effort, they could steer clear of caloric conversation.
Today's thought: Lord, turn my mind away from the pleasures of my tummy!
Quick fly by today, DH and I are packing a picnic and will social distance ourselves somewhere along the river about an hour from here. So looking forward to this!

Yes, Jaimsy! I love lots of different cuisines but I'm definitely hoping to keep this luxurious feeling. I'm not doing much differently either, in terms of prep time or foods I eat. Just being pickier about the quality of the food, and therefore enjoying it a lot more.
Quick food diary, will try to do personals later.
Breakfast: plain Greek yogurt w/ Bonne Maman blueberry jam and muesli (ohmygosh)
Lunch: 2 slices avocado toast with a bit of hummus and radishes. tropical smoothie inc spinach. 3 squares hazelnut dark chocolate, ~100 cal
yangtzer - PPE is dwindling... a glove shortage has caused supervisors to purchase gloves wherever they can find them; we now have industrial strength nitrile gloves and they are NOT comfortable. They also irritate my hands. Patients keep stealing PPE from the hospital as well.
Update: I didn't lose my job, but a couple of my dear friends were furloughed Governor needs to slowly open the state to get outpatient procedures back, and our workers back! Business are suffering! WE are suffering. The hospital is UNDERwhelmed.
I am going to be attempting a couple weeks of keto to balance my hormone levels and nab some weight loss.
Food for today:
Lunch:
Taco dip with pork rinds
(Sour cream & Cream cheese, ground seasoned beef, spinach, lettuce, tomatoes, mushrooms, peppers, jalapenos, cheese, avocado)
a square of dark chocolate
Dinner: Same thing as lunch

A picnic sounds lovely, nancy!
so glad to hear you didn't lose your job, Emily. I hope health care will be one of the first things back... a lot of "nonessential" surgeries can't wait *that* long, and same with so many procedures.
I could not sleep, so I thought I'd make an entry...
Joe: T.G.I.no longer.F. (I ate too much.) Thanks for teaching me how to write cuss words at this web site...
Emily: Still having a job must be a relief...
Diana and PrincessRoja: Yeah! Nice when losing is winning!
I was bored with my egg white sandwich. So this time I added a half a cheese stick...it definitely was stringy and put garlic dressing on the toast. ...Not bad. BUT, later I had half a ham salad sandwich, 2 burritos, ice cream sundae, and 2 oreos...
Met most of my goals for yesterday. Took in 1100 calories. Did get some weights lifted plus the treadmill done. I need to get those veggies chopped up so I can get in my daily "veggies" goal
Happy Friday!
Please don't tell me it's Thursday. 
It may not be much, but hey, I'm happy.
to everyone.....happy Friday
