Wow.. I just read my post. I don't eat out that much, just so you know


Annie

hehehehe!

I still get my take out. But now at KFC its a mini grilled chicken wrap hold the mayo.

At McDs it's their chicken salad with a cup of cooked corn and light dressing.

At any other place a grilled chicken burger no sauce, no chips... so now when my boyfriend says "Let's have KFC tonight, I kinda have started dreading it, as there's practically nothing else I can or want to eat from there!

Hehe, but I do loooove me a whole BUNCH of those lil McD's cheeseburgers.... one after the other wahahahaha!



Ok bye now

hahaha... I totally know what you mean, Anke! Sometimes I just want to stuff my face, as evidenced in this journal, but the past couple of days I've been doing pretty well with that.
199.5 lbs...

I need fiber... much more fiber....


Annie

Anything made by Fiber One is Heavenly and packed full of delicious yummy gut-healthy Fiber! I <3 their cereal and granola bars and now their delicious poptarts!

AAAAHHHHHH!!!
I saw the dreaded 200.1 on the scale this morning!

Eek, I may have to take some advice and stop eating so crappily!

Also, I'm confused about the logic of cheat days. Do they really help you do anything but keep you sane? I read somewhere that having a cheat day helps your metabolism.... I may have to look in to that.

Hey!!!! I'm back to your journal and you are below 200's!!! Awesome! how are you doing? Did you reward yourself for that somehow?? (Sorry, maybe everything is already in your diary but i can't read it as i'm secretly here online from work)! lol

I wanted to make sure I was securely in the 100's (and apparently I'm not) before I celebrated... So no celebration yet.

I think I've sort of hit a plateau... I hope not, but it sure feels like it.



Annie

I guess ive never dieted where Ive had a cheat day, but thats just cuz Id go off the edge probably and hinder my weight loss. I think if you work in the foods you like into your regular diet in moderation. You should be fine so your satisfying your craving as well as allowing yourself something you feel you can indluge in


Dont feel so frustruated, your definetly just having a mental block! Sometimes it takes people 2+ years to lose 30 pounds, the next pounds though are gunna be way more work just because now your kicking your body back into gear!

I was just checking in with you and oh no... what happened? Well, don't be so hard on yourself, we're all gonna go through that lose a few and gain a few back unfortunately... So, keep trying, and you really are doing great girl, just keep the faith and this too shall pass...

Hey, no worries, there's always the opportunity to regroup and make a change again. Keep up your spirits, and remember that your happiness should NOT depend on that number!!

I agree with your post in your diary about self-sabotage, Anke. It's ridiculous. I ate 6 mini sugar donuts last night and ate the other four this morning. They're just SOOOOOO delicious. The restaurant had closed an hour and a half before we got there, but they still made them for us. I know it doesn't count for anything because I could have said no thanks, but it was my sister's idea... haha I know that's no excuse. Ah well.

I did still stay in my calorie range, though... I just don't know how horrible it is for me.

Blehhh.

I haven't been here much lately...just too busy, but I thought I'd poke my head in for a few minutes today. Wow! You're down more than 34 pounds! That is terrific.

Congrats!!

wellll, it's more like 32.8 pounds, but I plan to keep on losing!

Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate any and all support I can get!

I'm going to cut down to weighing myself twice a week (seriously this time-- I have WILLPOWER!!) so I can see a greater change (maybe that will help with the plateau-mindset.)

I CAN do this!

I went to the new dollar store in town, and got some candy, but I portioned it out this time. No scarfing down 250-some calories from my candy!

Yayyyyy!!!

I did well today.

Cheers!

There were fun-size bags of peanut M&Ms at work today. I ate three, total calories 250.

Then I went to an after-work happy hour and ate some popcorn chicken, about the same amount as what is in a large Sonic jumbo popcorn chicken. So that's what I noted it as. Meant I couldn't have dinner, and I did some pilates to try to work some of it off!

I did bad. You did well!
