Some successes, some failures

So today was a big fat zero in the exercise department. Which was mostly expected given that it's a Sunday, but I should at least have stretched. Well, the Sunday excuse won't exist tomorrow; stretching and strength training will be followed by another trek with the folding bike. In a few days, it will have been a week since my ER trip. At that point, I will go back to progressively longer jogs carrying the bike.

I managed to pump out my black water tank today. Apparently, there's a mobile operation that will come do it for free. Eh. At least I learned how to get the job done without external help.

I have mocha keto chow made with coconut oil for brunch. It's not bad; obviously, a pronounced coconut flavor, but I'm not drinking keto chow first and foremost for the flavor. It doesn;t taste bad, but flavor is not its primary selling point. I have a chocolate with coconut oil mixed up for breakfast tomorrow, as well as a mocha and a chocolate made with butter. I've yet to break into my first subscription box, which contains four weeks' worth. I'll probably let me subscription go another cycle, with a couple flavor changes, then either suspend it or cut it in half. It is undeniably convenient to not have to fuss about this or that meal much. A well-made salad is pleasing, and I look forward to being able to have dumplings again, but the ease of preparing and consuming all the food for a day with keto chow is undeniable. I can prepare the shakes for three meals and do all the cleanup in less than ten minutes. I'm thinking about staying on keto for another three weeks or so; that will make six weeks, and bring me to the first weekend in September. I should be stable and appreciably below 190 pounds at that point. I think I'll try to accomplish a major workout of some kind that Saturday; maybe even my first self-run sprint-length tri, if my jogs with the bike look good. Then I'll have a proper celebratory feast.
