ronit's Journal

Gained a little this week
Nov 08 2009 21:24

Even though I'm not keeping to logging and journaling regularly I am working on making it easier to keep to the diet. I made two Rice and Lental Shepard's pies, one for dinner and one for another day, and will be setting up this weeks baking day. I also have some nice chicken soup measured out for us to take as we want.

Joe will be out Tuesday and I'll be out on Wednesday. The rest of the week is at home. If there's no rain I plan on working in the garden. Maybe I'll even psych myself up for a good walk in the yeshuv. In any case, I need to go though my pantry and menu plan for the grocery list before Joe's day out.

As mentioned earlier I'm going to bake this week. I want a nice breakfast bar for when we travel and I'd like another dessert for Shabbat. Measuring out the dry ingredients for some pancakes would be nice as well. If I get some nice veggies to freeze I expect I'll set that up too.

Mitzi can go out in the morning for her meals now. She's doing quite well even though she did remove one stich earlier. I've told Joe that if it rains or gets too cold during this week Mitzi comes in again.

Atti is gaining slowly. She went up from 2.7kg to 3.4kg over Shabbat. (~4kg is minimum for cats) That's a good gain even if she still feels too underweight and bony.  I had to force her to eat some of the sofened kibble before she devored the container I made for her. Later in the day I accidently scared her from eating some dry kibble she found laying around for her. For now I'm thinking the problem might be her sense of smell and eyesight agrivated by some psychological fear of being pushed away by the other cats. Having her in the house should help until she's more normal in weight.
