I went down one more pound. Hoping that the greek salad I ate doesnt cause me to totally gain 5 pounds tomorrow. We shall see...

Going Down

I am down 7 pounds in 3 days. Not as good as Elle, but nothing to scoff at either. So, I will continue on...pushing thru and hoping, hoping, hoping , to feel better about my body soon!

Holy Crap!

I went down 3.2 lbs from yesterday!!! I was so amazed/confused/flabbergasted that I kept moving the scale around the room thinking it was off balance, or something...anything but the truth.  I weighed, like, 6 times all over the house only to have the same # keep coming up!  I'm completely stoked.  It's funny because the etools for Weight Watchers (which expires soon since I ended my membership) advised me that I'm losing weight too quickly and that is unhealthy. 

Bullshit. 

I've talked to both of my Dr.'s about that and have learned a bunch watching Biggest Loser and reading health books that says it's okay to lose weight quickly as long as your body is getting the nutrients it needs, your not doing it by starving and you get enough exercise and rest.  I'm doing all of these things.  I eat when I'm hungry.  I stay away from processed foods.  I walk on the treadmill everyday.  And I do my best to get at least 6 hours of sleep a night.  In 8 days I have lost about 13.6 lbs.  (give or take an oz.)

I'm finally back in control and not thinking about food all the time.  I eat to live, not live to eat.

Same

I'm the same as yesterday.  A little disheartened but not devastated.  I know second week is always hardest and results small.  I will be fine.  Just a little stressed today.  Looking forward to going out tonight.  I wasn't really in the mood to drink, but now after getting news that Aiden is losing one of his jobs and therefore a good chunk of income I want to drink and dance the stress away.  : ) I'll let ya know how that affects the ole scale.

10lbs of Sugar

I've lost exactly 10 lbs in 1 week.  I'm happy, feel healthy and actually looking forward to continuing Brenda's diet.  It has gotten a lot easier after doing it for several days so it's just keeping up with that trend and not thinking about how long it'll take.  By the time school starts again I would like to be down 30lbs.  It's a realistic goal as long as I stay strong on Brenda's diet the duration of the summer.  I've done it before I can do it again.  And when I lose all of the weight I feel I need or want to, I am going to go back to Weight Watchers as my maintenance plan.  I love Weight Watchers, it's just not fast enough for how bad I feel about myself.  I want quick for now, and lasting for when I hate myself less.  Weight Watchers will allow me to maintain and live.  Brenda will get me there quicker.  And of course I'll keep you updated!

Gettin my head in the game

Ok. I made a fresh batch of Brenda approved chicken nuggets and deviled eggs. Getting ready to work on the "fries". Eating fruit like there's no tomorrow, and drinking water like it was alcohol (ha ha). Tomorrow the scale had better look better than today it did!

Tuesday!

So the long weekend is over.  I treated myself last night to a Fiber 1 bar...yeah, that's a treat.  I love them.  And a fudge bar...love them too.  I went up 1 lb on the scale, but am back in full force today.  The biggest reason I actually allowed myself the treats last night was that for 1) I was in the mood and didn't want to deprive myself. 2) there are worse things than fiber bars I could want 3) I am starting conditioning all over again today because now that I purposefully put sugar back into my body I need to get rid of it and I'll keep dropping weight quickly. 
That's my plan for now.  Condition almost all week, have a treat and condition all over.  For awhile it will keep my body from feeling starved and I will lose quicker.  I'm also getting ready to walk on the treadmill for an hour! Can't wait.  Just me and my IPod, baby!!!!  : )

Happy to say...

that I had a fantastic weekend without blowing diet! I'm hoping to get below a certain # this week.  Will keep you posted...not that either of you care because I'm such a b*tch!!!! ; ) That's okay, I can live with that.  One day soon I'll be known as a skinny b*tch...or at least a less fat b*tch...whateve.
