I’ve weighed between 211 and 212 consistently since the end of last week.
But I haven’t been eating perfectly. I had my first Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday, will have my second on Thursday like everyone else, and my third on Saturday. We eat in my family.
I’m not going to stress myself out over it, seeing now […]

My brother brought Dunkin’ Donuts all the way from his home in Nevada this morning. We don’t have Dunkin’ Donuts in California, and the rumor was they’re the best donuts ever.
It was good. It was a donut so, duh, it was good. But I don’t know about the best.
I think that was the first donut […]

I think I’m in the 69th week of my diet. If I’m not that’s pretty close.
I have another new low this week: 213.6.
3.6lbs lost since my last “official” weight taken 10/5.
107.8 lost in total.
I think my body likes to exercise.

I exercised for the first time in forever this afternoon.
I kid you not, I think since August. The last time I remember being excited and motivated enough to move my body was the first time I reached -100lbs.
I biked 10 miles (35 minutes) and only stopped because my butt hurt. That used to happen before; […]

My weight this morning is my new all time low, 217.2, with a total loss of 104.2.
I weighed closer to 216 yesterday morning, but I ate probably 1/4 of a bag of Tostitos (straight from the bag) last night and that tends to happen. How dumb of me.
At least I feel safely out of the […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Day 426 marks the return of my official weekly weigh in. Today’s weight was 223.8.
2.4 pounds from the -100 mark again.
Something totally reasonable and reachable.
FINALLY.
Two weeks ago I was 225 on the nose. I don’t know how I managed to lose over a pound in the last two weeks (I’m amazed I didn’t gain […]

Today is day 425 of the diet, but I feel the need to treat it like day one.
I am watching Bee Season off of my cable box in my bedroom, occupying my time (and my mind, and therefore my mouth) as to avoid sitting around, eating, moping, I don’t know…
I sometimes feel hopeless.
I jokingly complained […]
