I had braces put onto my bottom teeth Tuesday morning. Oh boy they hurt.
I’ve used, “I feel like I’ve been socked in the mouth,” “Every one of my teeth feels like it has a giant, aggravated cavity,” and “All of my teeth feel like they have food stuck between them,” as descriptions about how it […]

I was 219 even this morning. Two nineTEEN. Weee…
I ate Cinnamon Toast Crunch straight from the box, in front of the TV on Tuesday night, and had bites of what my mom cooked for dinner a few times during the week (after I had already eaten my own.)
So no cheating this week should do me […]

Add me! Or just watch me if you want. I’ll probably start posting my food tomorrow, unless I find time to put all of today’s in tonight.

I am craving breakfast. Bacon and waffles and hashbrowns that are cooked really crispy. I hate that there are just no substitutions for some foods. But this will pass.
I had those teeth pulled yesterday morning. I’ve been eating yogurt, oatmeal and soup since.  I was thinking of scrambled egg whites for dinner but eggs without […]

I only posted my food journal for one day. Huh.
I’ve been eating awesomely. Getting all of my food in with no extras, tons of water, yada yada yada.
I need to be better about taking my vitamins. That’s probably my biggest complaint about these last few days.
I will probably continue with the idea of a food […]

These are just thoughts swirling around in my head right now.

I had a bad eating day on Monday, but not enough to make me gain. But today I weigh four pounds more than I did Monday morning.
My body and hormones are really messed up, and I know it will/does affect my weight, but seeing a […]

I’m really into cooking right now.
I used to love to cook and would cook dinner exclusively for my family every night until I began my diet. I think my father has an aversion to anything green, and my family doesn’t really know dinner minus a side of mashed potatoes, pasta, rice, and the like, and […]

Day… oh I don’t know. I haven’t been talking about the diet.
I’ve been eating really well. I’ve had an extra granola bar or a few chips here and there but nothing that should keep me from losing. But I’m not losing.
Some days I wake up and am 221. Some days I am 225 again. I […]

I hate yogurt.
I often liken eating yogurt to being on an episode of Fear Factor.
It just tastes… funny.
But I am trying to mix up the foods I rely on, experiment with things that will keep me full (and be good for me), and subscribe to the idea that yogurt may aid my progress. (But three […]
