    day 487 of The Snottening

    I no longer feel hunger. My stomach is full of snot. I subsist now entirely upon my own mucus. All drains are clogged. Bins overflow with tissues.

    My terry molloy davros impression is fucking spot on tho.

      Ensure and small amounts of protein you can easily eat - whether that be small tins of tuna, soup, of Slim Jims kept by the bed.

      I find protein is really important for the immune system. Heaps of fluid and Panadol.

      Marmite toast is another good one (B12 really helps as does vitamin C tablets)

    I now have a giant pot of stew on the stove. 2.5kg of meat, there will be many serves to go in the freezer. One nice thing about doing such a large batch, it makes it worth the effort of using the food processor to dice the vegetables.

    I have also organised breakfast and lunch for the next two days at work (salad & ham/lamb rolls for lunches, bacon, egg & cheese muffins for breakfasts)

    I am currently contemplating making a cake. There is a risk if i do that I could eat the whole thing.

        Discovering I could get a dicing attachment was a game changer. Being able to chop everything into perfect evenly sized cubes is fabulous.

    My step counter app says I’ve made my target of at least 6,000 steps 3 days in a row! 💪🏼 Did a quickie abs workout, which is one I’ve done before a couple of times and it’s tough (for me) but I like it. I found that my step counter app has some exercise routines on it, and I tried one out but stopped halfway through because I needed more room for it than I anticipated. My room doesn’t have much room 😆
