Monday is my usual day off. Today I'm spending it in bed. I didn't sleep well enough last night, so I'm a bit tired. I woke up with a heavy chest, knowing the coughing was not far away. I've also called in to work sick for tomorrow. I'm supposed to be going to a training workshop and didn't want to leave it until tomorrow to decide whether I was ok to go or not. I was told to stay home. I'm not about to argue! I don't take that many sick days, so they know I'm not making it up. I usually push myself to get back to work as soon as possible but this time I'm in no hurry if it means better recovery. Rather that than more days off down the track because I went back too soon.
So far I've had four eggs scrambled with coconut oil, a black coffee and am soaking more ginger, lemon and cinnamon. Lunch might just be a cup of fresh beef broth.
Out of curiosity, I did a couple of quick measurements just before:
Waist: 38.5 inches
Hips: 52.5 inches
Stuff is moving already. :-)
Lunch was a cup of beef broth straight from the pot and a cup of ginger, lemon and cinnamon tea/infusion thing. I tried to nap but it didn't work. My eyes hurt from the light. I just had to lay there with my eyes closed.
Dinner was really late and consisted of roast kumara and parsnip. No meat. I didn't have the energy. As it was, my son did the vege. I took another, smaller quantity of beef broth just before sleep.
I'm still counting this as a success despite the lack of volume of food. Also, I don't think I have it in me to restart this over again right now.
