215?
Totally confused as to what happened, specially cuz this weekend I walked two hours (and in this heat I was hurting from that walk lol) and then I went on a crazy cleaning spree on Sunday and was COVERED in sweat and POURING sweat by the time I was done- I figured I’d at least maintain if not lose half a lb- but just goes to show your body is MEAN. lol- I will add I think I drank a few gallons of water on the weekend alone- I was thirsty! Literally I was like glub glub glub when I was walking around cuz I could FEEL all the water in my stomach!
The CON’s all planned out- all four days- so Sunnygee I think I’ll be seeing you on Sunday since the only days it looks like I’m going downstairs are Thursday and Sunday! I’m really excited about it- not only am I working just 3 days this week- but I’m going to have a BLAST for four days!
I went to the grocery store and bought a TON of food to take with us because the food there is not good for you AND is very expensive. It’s the typical $4 hotdog/water bottle expensive concert food. We plan on eating a large breakfast at home each morning- then I’m bringing all sorts of things like fruit snacks, granola bars, low cal chips, gatorade, water bottles, prune packs, and so on. Then we’ll probably eat ONE meal there a day but if we can help it I’d rather leave and pick up food on the way home- so we’ll see how it goes! Hopefully I don’t end up gaining a buttload of weight! I’m starting my day with a nice and protein/fat packed breakfast so that I won’t get hungry for a long while. Usually on weekends I eat two meals since breakfast keeps me full for most of the day then a late lunch is all I need plus a snack in the evening.
Not much else to say today except woo hoo comic con! And hoping that next week’s weigh in isn’t a disaster!
See this picture below- this is probably like 1/8 the size of the downstairs floor at comic con. 1/8th! It takes HOURS to go from one end to the other- literally I’ll spend like 6 hours downstairs and barely make a dent in all the stuff going downstairs! If you can ever go to comic con- even for one day- just go! It’s awesome!
And here are some great costumes you see people in- Enjoy!
It could still be water retention. Whenever I change up my exercise routine and do something more strenuous than usual, I’m always up for a few days after. Just be sure to continue to drink lots of water and the weight will come off!
Remeber when it’s hot and you drink a ton of water (good good good thing!), you DO still retain more water weight because the heat mixed with your body puts you on auto-protect. The good thing is your body will flush and only retain LONG TERM what it needs… As long as you know you’re burning more calories than you’re putting in your mouth, long term it works (barring any medical issues, thyroid conditions, etc…). ComicCon looks like a blast! I’ll have to watch for it, and the costumes look VERY motivating! lol. Now THAT would be character building to walk around in something like that and actually pull it off! Looks huge too so you’ll get LOTS of excercise in too! And…your number caught my eye, because I was 215 when I started my journey down the scale too…(well, my latest journey that is!).
Holy water retention, Bat girl!
Yeah, it’s probably all that water sloshing around!
The comic thing sounds like soooo much fun! I admire your dedication in packing healthy food. Have lots of fun!
Thanks! Just wait till Wednesday when I post my FOUR DAY schedule WOO HOO!!!
And I agree- man it’d be nice to look like that girl in the Princess Leia outfit! She’s smoking! I LOVE the costume- there are so many people who look awesome in their costumes I wish I could pull one of those off!
Looks like fun. I still have a bunch of my old Archie comic books from the early 70s… someplace. That was my favorite one.
Your weight isn’t always goign to cooperate with what you want it to do. Remember your health is the most important thing and even if you neer lose another pound, you have to keep at the healthy eating and exercise.. for your health
can’t wait, sweetie! It will be a blast! And I told you, I have no problem going upstairs to where you guys hang out, and stand in a line with you and chit chat for a bit.
I ought to post some of my past Comic Con photos; maybe on Wed. or Th.
I’ll definitely be bringing water, and some of my almonds to munch on. We usually walk off site to one of the gas lamp district restaurants for lunch.
