8.5 degrees outside, feels like 4.6. Chilly dog walk morning, but I can't complain. Gippsland Eggs put up a post this morning from their car showing 0 degrees and an ice covered windscreen.

I've been seeing bags of m&ms in woollies lately for 6 dollars and that's fucking obscene. Same with Maltesers.
It’s awful. If there’s any effective way to deter people from eating snacks, that’s got to be it.
Prices certainly have put me off potato chips for a while.
Good bot.🤗
Loving early starts and finishes and already clocking up nearly 6.5ks of walking just tramming into the cbd for work and back and working. Was hard work today and as a few in the company have said, there's no need to go to a gym as work is a workout. Training and money is pretty sweet and all my co-workers are great, my colleague today I'd never worked with and asked me my pronouns which is always a good sign.
On the way home I scored a proper oodie of the baby unicorn print variety and black stovepipe dungarees from the salvos. The oodie is warm, oversized soft and is baby blue, powder pink and white so you know, basically a gay / trans pride oodie as far as I'm concerned. It's nice to find clothes I know I'm going to basically live in for reasonable prices. Still undecided about whether salvos are cool or not, but their staff are at least.
Absolutely gorgeous day out there too, so I'll smash my ks up to 11 with a nice stroll around this lovely neck of the south of the rivers woods. Also already been able to share some totally un-asked for kindness through my volunteer work as well, so today's about as wholesome as I can hope for.
Thx for reading and love to you all my little dt family.

Damn, didn't get to finish up what was I supposed to do at work though the job was a little bigger than I thought in the end.
Hopefully can finish it up tomorrow.
Nearly time to wrap up the day and then off grocery shopping I go.
Herring is on my mind.

I found a really good way to think of fat/weight control.
Everyday there are three possible outcomes. We get fatter, we stay the same, we get thinner. Mark each day on the calendar. The trick is to slowly move from "get fatter" to "stay the same", then from "stay the same" to "get thinner". Then it's stay the same thereafter.
It probably means No Junkfood. Diet. Stay on diet.
Look, I'll be brutally honest. If you have excess fat, it will scream at you to feed it. You need to simply not listen to it. Skip the rice with dinner. Just have fruit and yoghurt for breakfast. Don't eat until you're full. Stay active, do aerobics. It will get pretty bad after a week or so, but once you start to starve the fat off, you can start noticeably losing fat every day.

Watching Dune (2021) - I fell asleep watching this once and also fell asleep watching the original version...maybe third time will be the charm?!
Miss Meow thought playing with the clothes hanging on the drying rack looked like fun. She successfully subdued the lingerie bag, but got stuck in my bra. I had to rescue her (and the bra) but she looks completely unrepentant.
