Shake it off

Friday:

Another pretty good night with the CPAP. It's been a bit cooler which really helps - I'm sitting here with jeans on instead of shorts! With the CPAP, temperature really matters. I still do the thing with the tissue padding around the nose pillows. My nose is more used to the apparatus and was only mildly sore after wearing it all night.

And my throat is much better although I feel a bit tired and unwell now, in the evening. My husband was sneezing and nose-blowing a lot this morning, so it might be a virus.

I've dropped yesterday's weight gain and a little bit extra so suddenly I am hopeful again for my weigh-out tomorrow. I'll try to accept it with grace either way, and just use it as motivation.

I didn't go to the gym today. I had other things to do, and I knew I would be walking with my son in the afternoon. But mainly I was worried about the ravenous hunger. Last night, after posting my blog, I ate even more. Today, not really hungry at all. I know I'll get used to the extra exercise. I ate low carb and not too many calories today. Turned out I didn't go for a walk after all, feeling a bit sick by then. Hopefully another good night sleep and I'll shake it off.
