Started South Beach Diet today. Technically, I started last week, but I didn't want to subject my houseguest to my dietary restrictions, so I skipped it this weekend. Blood sugar (hypoglycemia) tends to be much more stable on the SBD. I ordered two new cookbooks, so it will be fun to try new recipes. Last time I tried this diet, we really couldn't afford to eat decent seafood very often and didn't have a lot of money for produce. We also have better access these days to OK frozen seafood - getting it from the fish counter is both expensive and inconvenient because it doesn't keep well. I think it'll be much more pleasant this time - I told Adam he can make seafood every night if he wants it. I think we're having gazpacho with shrimp tonight, which should be interesting. We'll see how it goes.
Need to make some serious progress on my university class tonight. I hope to finish up my speaking notes tonight and start my handout (just an edited version of speaking notes with pictures added) tomorrow. I am excited to see that there are 28 (!!!) people signed up for my class. At least a few of them seem to be new people ('not yet' as SCA name seems like a good indicator), which is exciting.
In unrelated news, I have a needy and demanding cat.
Seriously tempted to take a nap. . .
