Lots of food!

For dinner: dhal and rice with choka & curry. Good Guyanese food.
I have to watch my weight while I am here in Maryland.

New day

It is a rainy day here in Gainesville. The rain is not a problem. I just walked through the rain and enjoyed it. Today, I am wearing a t-shirt I was wearing years ago when I took photos at home (at Lory Lane) and posted on the internet. I was a lot fatter then. Clothes like this remind me of my "mega" weight loss. I took some photos (screenshots) using Facetime. I was standing...

Interesting twist...

Some food orders could get complicated.

I received confirmation emails and text messages on my order. The emails and texts did not mention a problem with the credit card, but there was.

I received this message on the problem...

I replied by text (since I cannot make calls right now). After receiving no reply or confirmation, I assumed the restaurant did not receive the message. I then decided to submit another order with "updated" credit card information. I used the credit card for something else and checked the balance to ensure I had enough funds.

I sent a message to Pizza Hut on Twitter...

I am still waiting for a reply. It seems (maybe I expect that) the orders will be cancelled. This tells me that a phone is still very important for ecommerce transactions. Very interesting!

I wonder how many people have trouble ordering food!

Food

Today, I had a good food memory...the memory of Supligen (a lot like Ensure drinks) along with memories of my aunt and her family. It was because of a death though. That is how it is sometimes - good mixed with bad, benefit with drawbacks.

My post in Facebook...

On another note...
I just ordered food from Pizza Hut. While entering my order, I noticed that I could link to my Facebook account (not sure what that does) and sign up for text updates on my order and delivery. Very interesting, I thought. They seem to like links. Naturally, I tried it out...

I like the family options...food for several days. The pizza stores know what they are doing!!

Store closed but I could still order...considered a future order

I selected the gift card option, but my gift card did not work. The form required a 4 digit PIN. I had a 3 digit CVV number. The regular credit card option worked (the gift card is a "special" Visa card).

Interest in food

In a December 2016 post, I recalled that I started paying more attention to food for weight loss reasons (post: http://moorefo1personal77.blogspot.com/2016/12/food.html). Now, I realize that I have more reasons to pay attention to food and to research food items.

These recent posts explain why:

Change

These days I don't go out like I used to. In the past (here in Gainesville), I went out regularly to buy groceries, visit a restaurant, and explore the area. There is proof of this in my Instagram food journal: I had fun eating at Sonny's BBQ (https://www.instagram.com/p/8ybPkBCyHG/?taken-by=moorefo1picblog), Steak N Shake (e.g. https://www.instagram.com/p/9WXoQvCyNB/?taken-by=moorefo1picblog), Starbucks (https://www.instagram.com/p/BB3Ft3qiyM5/?taken-by=moorefo1picblog), and so on. I remember the fireworks on July 4 in Alachua (https://www.instagram.com/p/4u6bcBiyO8/?taken-by=moorefo1picblog). I was out with members of Campus church of Christ (COC). These days, I don't ride the bus often. Out now refers to a walk around or close to my apartment community. How things have changed!

One factor: I have less funds. I have way less funds than I expected. That is how life goes sometimes. No need to complain.

I can say that I benefited in some way. I lost a lot of weight. When I attended church recently (after a long time), some people did not recognize me because I looked so different.

A few days ago, I received my small tax refund. My mother would say I "kicked a purse." I used some of it to purchase food from Papa Johns (it had been a while - and yes, I could have used the funds better). See photos of my purchase below.
I was also out recently to purchase some (a small amount of) food from Winn Dixie. Photos also included below. I was resting at a bus stop - during the walk from Winn Dixie to my apartment.

I am not sure what the future holds. Time will tell (see also this blog post: http://moorefo1personal77.blogspot.com/2017/04/it-is-april.html & this post: https://twitter.com/moorefo1/status/856231083599425537 )
