I’m already feeling like a total loser for (see previous post)… I’m not giving up, I’m not I’m not I’m not. Oh, how I hate my all-or-nothing thinking.

I have decided to take my foot off the gas for a while, until I get comfortable at my new weight. Much to my surprise a few old eating disorder patterns cropped up in the past few weeks. What the–? I thought I was cured for crying out loud! I suppose that getting close [...]
+2.5 lbs. (Sigh…)
Somehow I’m not surprised by the scale creeping up a little in the past week. My trip to NM threw my plan out of whack, and I’ve been lazy about tracking my food intake and calories since my return. A few small binges, too… ugh. The fact that I ate Mexican food every [...]
I made the eggplant dish last night. I had to call my mom to clarify a few details, but it turned out great! DH loved it. I changed it a little by topping it with tomato sauce and fresh grated parmesan cheese. It used up 3 (small) eggplants, and I have 5 more. Maybe I’ll [...]
I’m not into cooking these days. Making lots of protein shakes… too many probably. Usually have 2 or 3 a day. This means all the remaining veggies from the garden are going bad in the fridge. I did make steamed broccoli the other night… the remaining from the garden and fridge, so there was LOTS [...]
Just played around on the calculator and realized I’ve lost 20% of my body weight. Wow. BUT, I still have 10 pounds left of the 50 pounds I want to lose… so that’s 20% of my weight loss goal. There’s still a ways to go, and I don’t want to get complacent.
Okay I know I’ve [...]
Here are a few photos I wanted to share. I was pleasantly surprised looking at photos from my trip to New Mexico… it’s really starting to hit me that the weight is coming off. Not just in #’s but in my face, my arms and butt… and my friend’s reaction when she picked me up [...]
I’m on vacation at my friend’s house in New Mexico. It’s absolutely gorgeous here. Sunny, dry, warm but not hot. I’m in heaven.
The air here is much thinner than I’m used to. We went for a run yesterday (I ran, she pedaled along on her bike), and I was out of breath within a few [...]
One year ago, Aug 2008… 193 lbs// Me now… 156 lbs
Yay, I bought a new swimsuit today! A miraculous thing happened… the FIRST suit I tried on fit, looked good and was the one I am wearing now as I write this. I just modeled it for DH and he loves it on me. Double yay!
So I’m taking care of 2 diet rewards this week. [...]
