4star- it will get better!! your health and feelings of well being are the most important and therefore i am very glad you feel better!! sleep is very important!!
northernrose- wine is totally worth it. i also find that any "gain" from over "wine-ing" comes off pretty fast! (booze cals aren't real cals?? they only make your clothes fit tighter??? ha)
toobig- you know what they say, tom water weight brings a big WHOOOOSH! hold on!!
Thank you for all of your well wishes for the interview! it went well, I HOPE. i am waiting for a response about a 2nd interview- i WANT THIS JOB. it is the exact step i need to take in my career. and it will move fast as i have let them know that i do have another contract offer on the table (as i do).
also though, more stress. the position i just finished, is literally, terrible. i hated it. it's not in my field, and it's very low paying (compared to what i am used to making). on the other hand, this job that i WANT desperately, is literally, a porshe compared to a 23 year old camry lol - the salary is LITERALLY twice, as well as it is permanent with a profitable organization, and i will be working in my actual degree field. my fingers, are crossed forever.
i am trying to "hold off" on signing this offer- obviously. i have about a week to play with, but i am on the rocks and trying to avoid the fridge.
i've been sick since tuesday, had 2 binges (although they are much less frequent, and far less calorie dense now which is positive i guess). i did make it to the studio today finally (After yet another 4 day hietus- and i've stopped running, again) AND i saw 179.8 on the scale this morning post yoga, after breakfast. i've eaten pretty low today (i'm not formally counting, but i'd ball park between 1400-1500, good mix of fats/proteins/veg) so tomorrow is weigh in, and i am hoping to see that's 179.8 again, although realistically it will probably be 180. - something. only time will tell i guess lol
Cabin. UGH. That's all I'm saying. 179 this am. Yes ladies, from 163 to 179... water weight.. I know but still. And I had yet another bad day today so might be in the 180ies tomorrow. I'm so ready for cabin season to be over. I know I can get it off and in two weeks I'll be back to where I was but I said no more binges and this weekend was one big binge.
169 this morning. Why can't I kick myself in gear and lose this last 10#s? And why did we order pizza? And wtf is up with me making eight dozen oatmeal raisin cookies? Who does that? I am losing my mind.
179.2 this morning, not as bad as I thought it would be after the hiatus that included a giant pecan roll, dairy queen, pumpkin candy, cake, and out to eat twice yesterday... ugh. come on water weight... please?
essentially, it's the progressed version of ART and it's not spot work, it deals with misalignments of the whole body.
also, more pressure then ART.
pro: it's like i have a new body, last night was the first time i could do backbends in a long, long time.
con: i am bruised. literally, bruised, not visibly, but it hurts like **** (although way less then my spine hurt). while not everything is "healed" it is very visible progress.
Ugh. A few snacky days and I was at 201 this morning. I'M SO NOT GOING BACK THERE!!! I know it's bloat but I refuse to be outside of Onederland so I am gonna nip this in the bud right now. I am pre-planning my foods for today to see if that helps me not snack so much and I ate a good breakfast this morning. I will also get some exercise. This is going to be a solid on-plan day!
175.6 this morning... not a happy number but much better than the 179 I was at yesterday, I'll NEVER in my life see the 180ies again, I haven't yet wrapped my head around saying that about the 170s so I'm not that upset over it but just annoyed that I have the hardest time telling myself it's not worth it while I'm eating it. because it so isn't. I wouldn't even want to admit to all of the things I consumed this weekend, I'm a little amazing I only gained 12lbs to be honest with you all. I think 165 is a good number for my body to be at, it likes it there and I like it there.

I have the snacky bug too! So much so I'm having to trade whole meals because of it!
But other than that doing pretty good. Iv been exercising 3 days straight, and doing my ab exercises so fingers crossed the scale will be kind end August. 64.1 kgs this morning.
167 this morning. I have no idea from one day to the next what the darn scale is going to say. I am so close to 100 #s lost and I can not seem to get there.
I hope the snack monster leaves everyone in peace and we all have an on plan day.
167 is a good number toobig You just can't seem to see that darn 166 though, have you seen it yet? As for me 171.5 this morning, should be back into the 160 by friday... thank goodness for that.
I did ok but not quite where I wanted to be. Ate around 1800 cals and ended up with a 900+some odd calorie deficit for the day(was shooting for 1000). I burned 2700 cleaning my bootie off....but this morning, I am sitting waiting for my pain reliever to kick in b/c I kind of over-did it.
Today, I am focusing on 1600-1750 cals and I think I am gonna trade cleaning my carpets for an errand day. Today will definitely be an arthritis workout video day so I can get loosened up.
