Winter food πŸ€”

Tuesday, Jan. 14, 2020 - Winter food.

It is still freezing and it's getting whiter outside.
After I took the bus-kid to school I had warm water with the youngest and drove up and down to school.
I went for an icy walk. It isn't snow but ice. I wonder what it looks lime tomorrow.

I boiled water for the wolves so they have some warm in their stomachs.
The water outside is frozen which means they have nothing to drink. They do not seem to care about it.
As I went out for a shopping bag of firewood I found a bone. I gave it to Thor. No idea how old it is. I guess 6 weeks at least and the youngest didn't eat it. Some like to bury it first.

I cleaned the fireplace and two pans and made a warm water bag and put it on my feet. With warm feet I feel warmer although I keep my coat on and my fingers are getting colder. Frozen fingers are painfull for sure.

Yesterday I had canned tuna for dinner.

It was ice-cold and tasted terrible.
It is hard to stay warm in a cold house, if it is cold outside and you feel cold. The only warm place is the car.

Drinking something warm doesn't really help.
How keep people warm during winter if they only eat vegetables and raw food?
If you have winters like here I doubt you will have a barbecue outside. Perhaps only if you are surrounded by big fires?
Not even the Inuit (Eskimos turn out to be a bad name given to them!) are having a barbecue or grill on stones they eat raw fish. We only eat raw herring. With cold fingers, it is hard to hold or grab anything. I hope this winter will be over soon.
I wonder if winter should be called winter if you do not have ice, snow, hail, etc. If you ask me it cannot. You only confuse people and teach children the wrong ideas.

Tuesdays are quiet days for me.
No ccc-contests are going on so it is my freewriters day.
I read freewrites and leave a recommendation.
Not really anyone seems to be interested in clicking a link but I am stubborn and it is great to see how the amount of people who leave a recommendation increased.

I watched the movie 2012
I saw it before, it was more to kill time with it till I had to pick up the youngest. I cannot say it is very spectacular. Some views were as the world came to it's end and if it comes to that I can only agree with the "nutty" broadcaster in Yellowstone National Park.

The youngest and I spent one hour in town waiting for the bus-kid. Once home I felt my day was over.

I lost some weight but can I trust my scales? Three tries makes a difference of one pound. I will see what tomorrow brings. I need to figure out what to feed the children.
@gertu joins the achievement challenge too. πŸ‘
Now I wait for the next participants who dare. @fitinfun this must be a piece of cake for you and how about you @cloudblade and @fredkese? I guess @olivia08 is too busy preparing for the wedding but who knows she finds time

12:43 pm
Time to make a fire and watch a movie. My SP is low and connection slow.

My food today
I ate some cheese at 8 am, 2 hot chocolate (hot water + cocoa), drop and 2 chickenburgers. That was too much I guess.

  • Water falls It is good to have children who come up with creative ideas. "Use the incense fountain", my daughter said. "It is just water that falls", the bus-kid responded. Let'sbe original.
  • Dpoll 23: Do you believe the outcome of a poll? I like dpoll but I can not stand the fact whole parts of sentences disappear. I know I am not the only one. Is this a mobile user problem only? It seems as abandoned as @partiko.
  • Recommend a freewrite I wonder if I should keep doing this. All freewriters are way to busy to respond or to notice they are mentioned. A part struggles with the connection. πŸ€”
  • Winterfood A freewrite with the prompt "winter barbecue". Better make clear first what winter is!

Posted yesterday (Jan. 13, 2020)

  • January 12, 2020 - Happy birthday dear Carmen. It was my friend's birthday on January 12th...
  • Dpoll 22: Do you catch the flu? How come dome of you always catch a cold and the flu? I try to figure that out.
  • Pointy shadows What a luck I could join this contest again.
  • Winter Does it really needs to be cold? It is a way to kill insects though although I doubt it works. The only great thing of a cold house is no insects,bugs,ants flying around because I keep their nests warm by heating the house. The wolves have ice on their hair. -Lucky me, no snow This post was scheduled for hours later but Steempeak didn't load with me.

Hi hi.. Wow. I wonder what's it like to have winter and snow. In the place where I am at, it's only the drizzles of rain and heat from the sun. I enjoy reading what you write because I see that you've always put loads of effort into writing. I like writing that is deep, well thought and writing that flows and not because it is forced. I've been too busy playing mobile games that I spent a long time away from steemit. Hopefully, I can play some catch up. I shall be reading your masterpieces. Do write more.

If you like winter (no snow yet just ice) you can have a look at my white winter walk. I really hope we will not have snow. It is hard to leave here if.

Just comment, join contests and people notice you again. Welcome back. πŸ’•

Each hive stands for a certain community or group.

Go to beta.steemit.com, sign in, choose communities, choose discover communities.
You see a list with communities you can join.
If you are not posting directly into the community and use partiko or esteem etc your first tag needs to be the hive you like to post in.

You can choose to do it this way, take one measurement and trust that as a final result. If you want consistency, do it at the similar hour for the next day. For all you know, our sleep time burns probably more calories than we're wide awake, because the whole sleeping hour we're fasting and our body is losing water at the same time. So, if you wanted an emotional or morale boost, take in the weight before sleep, and weight in again first thing after woke up, you'll probably feel a lot happier to find yourself lose some weight over night.

I am not sure I loose weight overnight. I need to drink about four liters a day to avoid being dehydrated (organs included) which is hard. Since the infusions didn't make me feel better either I do it this way.

I always hop on the scales first thing in the morning.
I will see on Sunday. I will lose weight one way or the other.

Btw I have been sick for 6 weeks only in bed, didn't eat and drank a little bit and slept. After those 6 weeks, I lost zero grams. It is still a miracle to me how that can be. πŸ’•

Which means body had shut down, for protect mode. It's crazy when I first heard from a nutritionist saying how powerful our body can remember the condition. When a person don't drink enough water, then the body will keep water. When the body have not enough food, then the body will shut down the burner, just to keep us alive. Doesn't mean we can jump to a conclusion we start to eat and the burner will turn on, more like we need to get back to active lifestyle again, try to turn on the burner so we can start eating again. I'm still half way there to be healthy, I choose not to take any health product, but naturally selecting food available from my environment trying to achieve my goal. Last year I've got some results in half a year, but July onwards I turned myself upside down and gain them all back 🀣

@davidke20 You did it before so this time you will make it.

My body is on the energy saving mode since I am a baby.

They also discovered that DNA changed with those and the (grand)children of the ones who survived the hunger winter (world war). This means you can get fat by just drinking a glass of water. Perhaps we are the ones able to live from the air only. That would save the planet too.

We struggle on and will succeed. Happy day. ❀️

@wakeupkitty I also hope you have a short winter, we have had a couple of cool days but nothing bad. It has so far been a warm winter in Florida. February is our coldest month. You are a good wolf mommy, heating water for them, I am sure they love you for doing it. Stay warm my friend.

Thank you for your sweet words. I try to stay warm so go to bed early...although I wake up early too.

I think something warm is good to stay warm. πŸ’•

@wakeupkitty You are welcome. winter will get to me next week, nothing like you have but it will be cold to me, in the 40's. We have had temps in the low 80's for weeks now so it will be a big change.

I squeeze lemon or add vinegar to canned tuna to give it better taste, @wakeupkitty. But I like all canned fish unless it is in tomato sauce.

I did not know about a weight loss challenge. I am WAY up in weight, but it is all due to the edema since I have not eaten much in the last year or so. I think I am actually less than normal if this water weight would leave. I exercise in bed and my legs are so so heavy now when doing leg lifts. They are twice their normal size and make me look fat if I did not know better. This whole thing is completely exhausting.

All I ever do is focus on getting my nutrition and eating less toxins. This has worked for over 8 years now.

The challenge is not about weight lost more an achievement challenge. You publish your goals for 2020 plus plan how to make it come true and give at least 12 updates this year. You can join too. Great support is given by @davidke20.

This fish was dirty and only very tiny pieces in mainly a can of water. I am used to tuna that fills the can. Well I ate it.
I never tried the lemon only mayo and made tuna salad out of it. πŸ’•
