a Hillbilly diary

jenn i guess it was last march or so. The first few days are rough ill warn ya now. now i feel much better. I still have the occasional sweet though now its just a bite rather than a huge amount. Now every sweet is more of a sickening sweet. Its odd but when I cut out sugar my salt intake went way down also. one thing is you will be surprised how much more food you get without the empty calories from sugar.


You know I've heard that craving sweets and salts go hand in hand. I think it's interesting that you have noticed the change. I guess keeping away from both kinda keeps each in check. I bet staying away from the crap really does let you eat more. I really should try keeping away from sugary things.
 
I get the sugar free sweets whenever i feel the craving. They really help and they are soo yummy and creamy!

yes Ma'am, Running out the door with keys in one hand and 10 page comp 1 report in the other. It's funny, I typed 10 pages and still don't know what it's about lol.....
 
Well another busy day with pretty good calories. well honestly its a little low. I might make me a wheat pancake to up it a few hundred calories. I don't know i have been busy all day. This Linux system is kinda swirly so may dump it for another. anyhow hope everyone else had a good day.
 
Cant say as I've heard that one - sounds like you've been using emacs to long :p

If you ever need linux help just pm me (Ive been a Linux/sysadmin specialist for many years now - with a side order of programming)
 
swirly..... silly old spell check got me again. suppose to be squirrelly lol. I get free programs from the school and though Linux is mostly free this is red hat 9.0. a little older but a good stable system. It just doesn't support my sata hard drives. someone is supposed to be getting me the fedora but they haven't come through just yet. so now I'm this close to ripping apart the progie and finding the kernel and getting him a replacement lol..... now I'm going through the lime-wire and such sites looking for an OS mostly already pieced together. I think your the first person that knows anything about Linux. most everyone I know likes Microsoft::::::shivers::::::::. After this year in electronics I'm getting a second associates in It. Most of it is Microsoft junk with some UNIX and Linux just because you still see it alot in servers. And I don't have to pm unless you just want because this is my diary and I can babble about what i want its in the small print lol...... But really thanks for any help you can give.
 
lol yeah i hear ya,
If you're new i would reccomend kubuntu or ubuntu (ubuntu is gnome based - kubuntu is kde based and probably a bit easier for windows converts).

Its pretty good at picking up odd hardware and being nice and easy to install, oh yeah and they send out free cds from :)
 
cool thanks.... I'm keeping red hat as well. I picked up abunch of computer systems from the school and they are old Compaq's:::::::shiver::::::::: They are slow as far as windows with the memory and such but runs the red hat fine. It just doest like my new machine with the sata hard drives.

Thanks, yup even had breakfast ooooh tummy hurts. Anyhow got the kids to try the wheat pancakes and they loved them. Of coarse they had the full on syrup and what don't that make taste better lol. I normally get hungry just and hour or so after breakfast but I think this is heavy enough that ill be full for awhile. I really wasn't expecting a loss, I was looking more for a stalemate lol. Its still a good feeling all the same....
 
Everyone is after me now to get some smaller pants. These aren't big they are just very roomy lol. My belt now goes past the third loop on my side. and my pants, when i cinch my belt all the way up it grabs my waste but the piece up front where the button is gets pinched way up in front past the belt. The guys at school says its time to get more shirts. these use to fit better now they are turning into a nightgown lol... well good feeling all the same.
 
getting one or two new things would be agood motivation... don't splurge on a whole new wardrobe.. but one or two new items to make you feel all pretty would be good :D
 
5lb loss! That is wonderful! The weight seems to just be melting off of you.
