What my doctor said about the effects of sugar on insulin levels is true. Consuming sugar spikes insulin and it leads to even more hunger cravings.

I’ve been indulging as of late; simply because it started with ramen and ended with hot dogs and soda. That’s not a “reason”. I meant: I’ve begun indulging in carbs because I simply slipped back into the habit.

I can’t exactly blame stress because although I’ve returned to work, I am proud to say that I kept up. I turned over two rooms on the 7th floor, and managed to do a lot of walking, and even learning how to set up the new wolf pump. I probably did: joints, gyne lap cases, ent-general cases, general, ent sinus, and I turned over rooms with relative quickness.

On top of that, my poor ankle didn’t fail me. I pre-medicated and used a brace, but it could’ve given up on me. But it didn’t. Thank you mind and body.

So I can’t blame the poor diet on work. Works been relatively light. I think it was wise of me to request four hour work shifts for two weeks. We’ll see how I fare next week, and reevaluate my ability to work 8s versus 4s.

I don’t mind the short days at all. I’m glad my body can keep up for four hours, and even stand. I still have therapy goals: maintain and improve range of motion, regular strength band exercise, physical therapy massage and exercise, and most of all— learning to squat, *go down the stairs* and do all the things I need to do for a vigorous life.

My insomnia isn’t helping. So I’ll sleep in 5. I’m surprised I had the impulse control to stop binging Princess Weiyoung (who would’ve thought I could tolerate Chinese language)?

I hope I didn’t offend anyone by saying that. My ears like what they like.

I have an early day tomorrow: a pastors going to come by, and my best friend is going to whisk me away to watch dragon dances. Afterwords I’ll either go to the mall or rest before boyfieee takes me out.

He went from fbf to boyfiee, which is still interchangeable. I’ve decided it’s a good idea to spend more time getting to know him.

Anyway; there’s also me. I wrote down on paper what I wish to achieve, and the hobbies I want to continue.

Sleep. Sleep sleep sleep!
