Day Eleven: Making It Work

Another low-energy night, but another meal achieved. Tonight--more fish, more tomato, more lemon juice, more pasta, and more spinach with garlic, just in a different combination. It might not be creative, but--hey--so far I've hit the correct amounts of everything for every meal, and that feels like a major achievement. It's only four days in, but that's 12 meals and 12 snacks. Put that way, it's almost a miracle of will and consistency.

(Gold star for me!)

Also, I'm not sore. My muscles are just tired, and I can feel their fatigue when laboring my uphill way home at night (8 minutes straight up through jungle heat and humidity) or stretching. Is that okay?

P.S. My Chinese teacher, who may appear often in my stories, told me today that my face looks thinner. Hooray!
