FINE

OK So I suck at dieting. Gained another couple of pounds back. Oy. Haven't gained them all back but it's only a matter of time. I need to win the lottery just to hire a cook. Yea, that'll happen.

eating good...welllll

I had meatloaf and potatoes for lunch. Didn't mind a salad just didn't wanna wait so long that Neal was already done eating so..meatloaf. Besides I love IGA's meatloaf. LOL of course had to buy some cherry sours. sigh I feel bad for cheating but i have begun to HATE lettuce and everything green.

gloomy

I'm having a gloomy day. Just down. Wish I was home and busy. Eh, guess life goes on.

I think my goal for this week is to not gain back any of the weight lost last week. Having 2 migraines last week helped the weight loss and having the Superbowl eats didn't help this week so if I maintain I'll be ok. Had a salad yesterday. Max picked it up. OMG Too much ranch times 10. Good tho :) I had a grilled chicken wrapped from Sonic for lunch. Shouldn't have had the diet coke but did. In need of grub at home and don't see that happening til this weekend so I don't know how good I'll be.

But I'll sure try.

H

ayyyyyy

OK, I'm trying. I really am. But I'm hungry. I'm making chicken wraps for my guys cause they don't lift a finger. And Imma gonna have one too!!! I'll be somewhat good and not fill it up with chicken and cheese. Lettuce, lettuce, lettuce and some chicken :). I found my bean pot recipe for refried beans. Looks interesting. Got the beans soaking overnight and I'll try them tomorrow. Can't wait.

Down

I don't know why I'm so down but I sure hope I snap out of it soon, I eat when I'm down. I'm also having headaches and pains that I KNOW are dehydration related but I can't drink enough. Doesn't help that the bathroom at work is so far away and I don't WANT to drink too much.

Yesterday was good. Nice lettuce and carrot salad for lunch and broccoli and beans for supper. I was FULL. Didn't have a salad but I don't care. I'm the only one here today so no going to lunch. I brought grapes and a lettuce salad. Out of beans at home so I guess I need to make some tomorrow. I have a couple of cans to get me by.

Wish I was home.

Superbowl tomorrow. Looking forward to it. Go Giants!

Guess that's it for now. Life is boring today.

1 week down

and two migraines dealt with. #2 is still hanging on but hopefully it'll be gone soon.

202.5lb to 194.5lb that's 8 pounds in one week but I'm not fooling myself. Several of those are from being in bed for the last 36 hours throwing up with no intake at all. Dehydration. So my goal for this next week is to not gain it all back.

I didn't have the best week. Wednesday I cheated. Started with chicken on my salad, followed by a headache and oooo I know myself so well I thought I may as well cheat the rest of the day and get it out of the way, it might even get me over my headache. Backfire. I ate. Pain increased to the point of severe by Thursday morning. Ugh.

All I've had so far today is water. Can't even make myself want to eat. I did bring some oranges to work and IF I go to lunch I'm planning on going to Subway for a salad.

But right now I'm at work, in pain, wishing I was home.

left---now I'm back---

I had lunch, salad (lettuce and carrots and a tiny bit of ranch) and an orange. I'm beginning to feel human again.

Superbowl Sunday is on my mind tho. I wanna have SB food but nothing sounds WORTH it, ya know. Me and Bud will work on that one. I'm thinking mini cheeseburger pies (thanks for the recipe mom!). But even then I hope I have the power to only have one.

Off to work, see ya

1st ETL migraine

Day started bad. Half a migraine pill and a few hours sleep with my pups and alls well. I'm really shocked. If ETL helps this much after 4 days I'm IN!!! Eating was hit and miss today. Didn't feel like breakfast and lunch was just fruit that really hurt my tummy. Supper was the usual tortilla with lettuce and bean juice. Also my broccoli salsa mix and beans. yummy. I'm sure I haven't eaten enough food today but I'm good. I took Odis for a walk around the place, then to Walmart and then home to clean the kitchen. I usually don't feel like doing any of those and I don't know if the my diet or just feeling better after the migraine but :)

Cramps haven't left yet but at least that's temporary. Damn Mother Nature.

Tough day

What a day. Not so much a bad day for me but Max...Oh boy! Can't go into it here but I don't know how he's holding it together. OY! I, too, didn't have an easy day. I was sooo hoping that James would just say lets go to the Anchor. mmmmmm Baconcheeseburger and onion rings. He didn't. I lived. I've been good, begrudgingly. Let's see, banana, actually I think it was two, orange, no lunch, tortilla with broccoli and cauliflower and romaine. Beans. I'm feeling a little hungry now but I think a big ole glass of water will help. But I gained a half a pound back this morning (although mother nature just hit, too) I'm tired. Need to rest. Night

OH! And Brandon helped today. As I was whining about eating something, anything, he said "but it'll be worth it when your migraines are gone". OMG I needed that, then. What a kid. Made my day :)

day three nearly done

Wow super was great. I could have that every night. And I just may. :)

tortilla loaded with romaine, cauliflower, broccoli, and a drizzling of bean juice. A pound of beans. Almost too many. May have to do less tomorrow. Afterward an orange. Come to think of it I missed my 1 cup or was that a pound of cooked veggies. hmmm May just leave that off today, I'm full.


I can't believe I'm saying that, I'm full. WOW I will absolutely weigh in the morning cause if I overdid today I won't want to do it again tomorrow.

I'm still in shock at how good I feel. Almost tingling. It's the weirdest thing. I don't know if this is the DT's or the detox is gonna leave this awesome feeling behind. Wouldn't that be great. haha

Bout to go tan and read. Goodnight!

WHAT AN AWESOME DAY!!!!  Zon and her 5 kids came by. Just a great day visiting. She's got such awesome kids. OK, truthfully (and I realize Zon may read this someday), I'd kill Andrew. That boy is 200% boy. WOW He just wears me out. But what a cutie.

I've stayed on my diet so well today. I'm so proud of myself. I've made hamburgers and hot dogs today. I have a pot of beans on right now. I did cheat there. I just had to salt them. I taste tested it and ick. I won't eat that crap so its cheat or throw away food. Um, NO. But so far I've had a banana, apple, orange and the last of my salad from the other day with just a bit of ranch. Helped immensely.

Note to self: shop for healthier Ranch dressing

I'm about to go check the beans and then fix me something to eat. I'll tell ya about it later.
