Post-Katrina #2 – Weight and Loss
So, unexpectedly, I lost about 10-12 pounds since Katrina hit!
It’s the new Katrina (C) Diet:
– cereal or a bagel for breakfast
– anxiety and uncertainty due to homelessness coupled with working through lunch to get the PCs you are rolling-out done so you can maybe get back to Orlando and not have to spend another damned night alone in a hotel 200 miles from your girlfriend, AGAIN
– and a sensible meal for dinner
Truthfully, food, one of my chiefest pleasures in Life, has lost a little bit of its appeal. I’m by no means eating just bread and water, but I’m just not as full-on excited about food as I used to be, ever since Katrina. Snap has expressed similar feelings, too. I’m sure that this is part of an overall depression due to our lives (as we knew them) being yanked away, stripped like a car in the Projects, and then returned to us. I am also sure that we will one day get back to feeling like we used to. I hope I can continue my weight loss success AND love food, again – tempering both to my advantage. It would be nice to be more slim, healthy, and fit, and still enjoy great meals and snacks.
Maybe MissyG and I can find a nice apartment complex that has its own exercise room for free! That would be good. Here’s to that!
