Although I am still very interested in losing and maintaining weight while exploring and celebrating new and interesting foods, I find that I now have to learn how to manage this with LPR (Laryngopharyngeal reflux), an acid reflux disease that affects the voice and respiration.

Plateau, Hernia Surgery, and Raised Garden Beds
Yep, that's a picture of a plateau, and my weight is as flattened as it is. This is but one lame excuse for not having written. I love writing this blog, it's just that sometimes my life gets the better of me and it just doesn't happen.
So, yes, I'm at a plateau, and when that happens, I do get a bit frustrated and I feel as though my dieting isn't succeeding. Cognatively, I know better, but it doesn't mean that I accept it emotionally. However, despite my frustration, I've been pretty good.
I left you last with Ken finding out he'd have to have a vena cava filter put in prior to his hernia surgery. Well, the filter went in successfully, and his surgery today was very successful. They're talking about sending him home as early as tomorrow. We're sort of hoping for Saturday. I think he'll do better at home with one more day to heal. Besides, he likes the attention of the nurses.
After I came home from visiting Ken in the hospital today, I put together three raised garden beds. I'm rather proud of myself for having done this by myself. The next step will be getting soil to fill them up. Once the soil is in there, I can start planting spinach, kohlrabi, kale, onions, etc. I can't wait.
Once my garden beds are in position and filled, I'll share pictures.
From now on, I'll try to be better about writing.
