walked 3 miles this morning
136oz of water
Yesterday afternoon/evening was great. I had a good time at the tasting even though afterwards I had no room for a real dinner. I drank a bottle of water and some a cup of green tea when I got home.
I was a little hungry when I got up this morning but I didn't have time to eat before church. I am having a hard time finding clothes that fit. The clothes that use to be tight are now way too loose. I never thought that I would see the day that it would look like I am swimming in my clothes. When I went to the tasting yesterday my friends sister-in-law actually noticed that I had lost weight. That made me feel good. Then this morning at church one of my walking buddies said, Hi Ms. Skinny. I smiled and thought wow, she's calling me skinny. She sees me in my walking clothes often but I guess in regular clothes you can really tell. When I came from church I had a protein shake made with 8oz of water and a serving of Activia lite vanilla yogurt. Not the tastiest thing but pretty filling. I also had a 100 cal pack of chip Ahoy cookies. I'm tired but I find that when I don't take my multi-vitamin I don't have much energy. So of course now that I have remembered I have taken them. Oh yesterday's weight was 174.8 this morning I was up .6 at 175.4, I knew that yesterday's weight was too good to be true. I hope that my weight is actually 170 by 9/6 I really want to make goal for the Labor Day challenge.

I have got to do better calorie wise. I didn't get up until 9:00 and when I get up late it throws me off. I do better when I am up at 6:45-7:00. This will be one of my goals for the remainder of the week.
Well I got up on time today. Weighed in at 175.0 this morning. I ate a regular breakfast back to normal .
I have finally started cleaning out my closet. Wow I have tons of clothes that are sagging. I don't want to throw them away though like my husband suggested. I want to find one of those places that gives clothes to women starting all over and getting jobs. Well gotta figure out a healthy delicious lunch that is the right amount of calories and finish up the clothes. I'll be back later.
Well I haven't been here in a while. Looks like I have lost my buddy But I'll keep going with this thread ...
Well Thursday was a good day overall ... I got my closet cleaned out. I found a place to take my clothes that will clean them to donate to Dress for Success. The remainder will go to a church down the street that does a clothing give away twice a year. So I'm happy.

Even though according to fatsecret my calories should be 1800 I haven't come close. I think I may for the first time skip my weigh in tomorrow morning. Walk like crazy and then weigh when I get back. I'm not overly full but I ate just about every thing I wanted today minus a Reece's cup, chocolate cup cake, zinger and something else I saw that I wanted (can't remember) I went to Giant Food to look for one thing and came back with 3 bags of other things. Then I went to Salad Creations listening to my daughter and I have no clue as to how many calories was in that. Wish me luck tomorrow. Thanks
This is behind one day I was talking to a friend on another thread about zig zagging calories. I stopped trying to zig zag because of my lack of planning I couldn't get it right. So I figured since my calories aren't nearly the same they zig zag enough. Honestly I am still trying to figure all of this out. What I was doing in the beginning is no longer working. The plateaus put me in a bad mood. I'm not wanting to give up but when the scale doesn't move I think eat less. However when I try to eat less I eat more. The only time I eat less is when I am busy and that's because I forget. But when my day settles I actually taste things late in the evening that I haven't had (weird I know). I'm sorry for babbling ... I've felt bloated all day and I actually look bloated too. So ugly looking, on a brighter note ... We went to the mall today and I got 2 body shapers that made me feel and look really good. I also got this really cute black dress that my husband said was ugly until I put it on. He was impressed. My mood is getting better as I'm typing Well thanks for listening. Oh my salads fill me up pretty well. I love beets so I kind of go overboard with them and usually add chicken if I'm home. That salad last night was pretty big. Oh and my Mom is here making homemade banana pudding from scratch (none of that box pudding) ... so so good. But I won't have but a spoon or maybe not but it smells so so good.
