They say that reducing stress is important to losing weight. I really have not figured out how to reduce stress.
Had a small biopsy today. Results next week. Meantime my daughter who is moving was dragging her feet about making reservations for the storage unit and movers so we had an argument while I was on my way to the doctor - my blood pressure was 150 over whatever! Too high! I set everything up, then she said she and her dad would take care of it, then thought it out and had the boyfriend put his two cents in and then finally a minute ago decided to go with the plan I had and now we have to try to uncancel everything. Ugh.
Everything will work out I am sure but the bad part is that I have to go out of town so can't help with the move. And I need someone to feed the birds on Tuesday when she is probably packing up.
I had a fat-percent test done on the machine at the gym. For my height and current fat percent, my BMR is 1350, according to the calculation and also in my experience maintaining this current weight. So, to go to 1800 calories I would gain a pound a week fairly easily.
Right now the plan is weights 3 times a week, and walking and dancing as available. I should probably add walking at least on the treadmill. 10,000 steps is what 5 miles?
I don't know. Maybe I should just cut out the starches. I think I had success in the past that way, no way bread, pasta, potatoes.

Well, July is jam-packed already. One daughter moving her stuff to my house, the other trying to figure what to do next and flailing. Gotta organize my cottage which I didn't do because I had Covid and couldn't travel the 100 miles there and back to do anything.
On top of this, I have to have a biopsy for unusual test results. I dread the procedure, any follow up pains, and also what might be the results.
I am stressed but I am focusing on eating well. Chopped up a salad last night and cut everything into little pieces, mixed the dressing with some yogurt, and that was good. I like the chopped salad concept, where you chop everything up so you can't recognize it, got in some veggies that I didn't want to cook cause it was so hot.
Now my window air conditioner is acting up. Why now? Dang it. 94 degrees Fahrenheit today!
