I actually lost a couple of pounds.
I was too lazy to go out shopping so I Amazon delivered a shitload of Thai soups. Mostly thin rice noodles with some spicy packets. Plus all my salty snacky chips.
Then I chopped up a bunch of onions and canned sliced mushrooms and stir-fried them for a bit. This gives me a large bowl to pull from.
Then I took a huge chuck roast and sous vide it to 145° for 24 hours. I took it out of the sous vide and fried it in avocado oil for a couple of minutes on each side to give it some flavor. The meat gets sliced thin (across the grain, it melts in your mouth) and tossed in to the soup along with the onions and mushrooms.
I'm almost healthy. A bit too much salt I assume.
I haven't smoked in over 2 weeks now. At least not tobacco. The first week I was definitely coughing up a bunch. According to my reading, I've been suppressing my damaged cell expulsion by smoking. So when I give up smoking my lungs are going to cough up a whole bunch of s*** for a while until they're cleared out of the dead and damaged cells. That seems to have passed. I am no longer gasping and wheezing as I try to breathe at the end of a long day filled with smoking.
M left a couple of packs here. The first couple of days I would walk by and hover and think how much I hated her smokes and it wasn't worth it but I still wanted to. Now I just pretty much forget about them unless I'm writing a note like this. She told me to leave them alone so she could give them to someone she works with. I managed to not touch them.
She will be back in less than 7 days. She will fly in at the middle of the night and go to a hotel room because I'm not driving at night and killing myself. I'll wake up and take a leisurely drive to pick her up at the hotel by the airport. I'm down to an hourly countdown. I do miss her but it's not killing me too bad.
Her cat is aggressively affectionate to me. I try to be nice to it but there is a limitation of how much I can cuddle it. It will freak out when she gets home.
Note: reply to the wrong thread for this information but screw it. I'm not posting somewhere else now.
