Good news: my water weight has FINALLY come off. I bought a 2qt jug to tote around with me and have been keeping to drinking it ALL. Overnight, I dropped 1.8lbs. Hooray! I'm almost out of the 140's!!
Brandy, I haven't started school yet. I've decided to start taking online courses like my mama. I have to ask her when I start.
Lydia, YAY! Congrats hun! I would buy one of those jugs down in the canteen but I deliver patient trays all day so I can't carry it around. Usually what I do is go to the cafeteria and get their 32 oz cups after work and refill it for the rest of the day. Hopefully, I will get that secretary job I'm trying for and then I will have a desk and a nice, big VA water jug for that desk.
That's what I do with water Shari. Right now I have a 32 oz cup (that I got from Dodger stadium) adn just fill it up throughout the day. It sure makes 64oz of water seem like nothing!!!
Today has been such an awesome day. I have been so busy at work that time is just flying by!!!! I love it!!! I started Fat Smash today. But I have just been too busy to think about food that I haven't had much problems sticking with it. When I get home...well, that's another story. I just hope I can fight the temptations. What sucks is that I have to cook dinner for my bf and cook dinner for myself, so I know I will be tempted to pick at his food. But I already told him to say NO!!! to me. He's scared that I will be in a bad mood all the time (you all know the crankies come out when you are hungry!!!) because I am not going to be eating my beloved junk food.
brandy--the fat smash book was really easy to read and understand (for me anyway) check out the review on this website. http://www.3fatchicks.com/Diets/Diet...at_Smash_Diet/
Basically you go through a detox for 9 days- 4-5 meals per day eating fruits, veggies, brown rice, egg whites, oatmeal, water, beans, etc, etc. no junk food/processed food/soda/bread/pasta etc.... Then slowly you start adding meat, whole wheat bread/pasta, drinks, etc...It seems really easy to follow and once you get through the first 8 weeks..you don't have to deprive yourself of anything....just eat it in moderation. Sounds like a good plan to me!!! (oh yeah...you do ahve to excercise too!!)
Man, I've had such a hard time getting on here! I switched to light speed to keep the bills down and now I hate waiting for this stupid computer to get to where I want to be!
Still at 135lbs and now that my back is a little better I can slowly start moving and loosing!
G'night catch ya all tomorrow!
Morning gals-I've been so busy lately that I cant seem to focus to finish anything that isn't absolutely necessary. I hate times like this. I know it will settle down soon, but in the meantime....
Rosario-That diet looks interesting. I'm not sure I could give up meat for 9 days. I'm usually fruit/veggies til dinner and then almost always have some kind of meat. Good luck!!
Shari-Good job on the water! I'm at home most of every day so I just make sure I have a glass nearby and get plenty throughout the day. I also ALWAYS have a bottle in the truck for when I do go out. It helps curb some of the cravings til I get home and can make something healthy to eat.
Well I have been sick (again ) for 3 days, which means no exercise but I got some in today . I wasn't going fuul speed and didn't get eveything done but I acomplished more than what I thought I would;. I am still not feeling fell (just a head cold ) but it is almost completely gone.
well so far I am acing day 2 on Fat Smash!! It really hasn't been hard for me. I just need to step it up on the excercise. I didn't get any in yesterday but I will just use it as my free day. I'll probably do my BL dvd. Hey, whaddaya know...I am actually looking forward to it.
Today was weigh in and also the day I rejoined WW meetings. Man, I was happy to be back. I missed meetings SO much. Anyway, I shocked the **** out of myself this morning when I stepped on the scale and it read 241.2! I haven't been 241 since...well I don't know. I can't remember! I was just complaining last week that I don't remember even being under 242 in recent history and BAM! I guess the scale just got tired of my *****in! LMAO! So I went to the WW meeting this afternoon and weighed in at....241.8. Seeing that 241 still shook me. Lord knows how I'm going to react when I get in the 230s, 220s, 210s, ONEderland!, etc! Anywho, I've decided that I'm going to go by my own morning weigh ins simply because that's how I started out on here. Okay, I'm out! Night!
shari--that's great!!! stick with your plan and you'll see the scale going way under 241. congrats!!!
I cheated a bit last night. I was stressing a bit (i couldn't find some papers that I needed for this morning) and I gave in and had a bag of mini muffins. But the good thing is I overcame my urge to binge. After I ate the muffins, I was gettign ready to stuff my face wiht cinnamon and raisin toast w/butter but I didn't!!! I have been doing soooo goood with eating...there's no way I am goign to throw the last 2 days out the window!!!
Still gotta work on excercise. I am having a hard time with that one!!!!
shari-- congrats it feels real good to hit a big accomplishment.
ro-- you can do it keep up the good wor,just keep your goal in mind and then the food is just nit worth it.
I was feeling a bit better yesterday and now tonight my throat is starting to hurt and I am loosing my voice ..in a house with 4 loud kids this is not good..
That book is $20.00 here! Bet I can get it cheaper somewhere else though!
I'm on it after Ryans B-day!!!! That's still a month away though Between my B-Day, having my teeth yanked and Ryan's B-day I really can't do a diet/lifestyle change.
How's everyone doing?
