a Hillbilly diary

yea it does. relly its more than a notch. its one of those weaved belts and i lost just under 4 inches or 10.16 cm off of my waste so it its working.
 
thats great hon im so happy to see youre feeling better and your poor bum guess when ya walk around rubbing it ppl didnt look to funny at ya ;) but anywho.. good to see ya doing so well with everything youre my inspiration to myself takin the weight off and hope i can inspire you too
 
Scale

Here is a scale available in stores at Target. It is called the Big Foot by Healthometer. It is accurate up to 400 lbs and costs $44.99. You can order it from Target online, too, and if you have a problem return it to your local Target store within 90 days with your receipt. Maybe this helps? :)
 
I like hear belt notch stories! I have taken my belt buckle in by two holes now. Your four inch achievement is impressive!

It sounds like ordering a scale on-line is the way to go. You might get some satisfaction out of seeing how much you have lost. If you've taken four inches off your waist, I'll you lost a bunch of pounds.
 
yea i weigh at a friends house. but we dont normally get around to the scale till after we have eaten dinner and had a few glasses of iced tea and some coffee. So its off by a few pounds after all that sitting in my belly. Im getting one this week so i can weigh in the mornings
 
Breakfast--- sandwich---2 eggs, 2 slices of turkey bacon, 2 slices of wheat bread
(267 calories)

Lunch---red leaf lettuce/small onion/green goddess dressing
(320 calories){Most was the dressing, bad me}


Drinks- water, large orange pineapple juice {160x2}
(320 calories)

Total------ (907calories)


Now the bad news. Im going to the casino in LA and that means a buffet. Dont think this will be good on the numbers. well im at 907 calories now. Keeping it under 3000 shouldnt be a problem but think under 2000 would be a better number. I wont be able to see the calorie count since im not cooking it. Ill try and stick to stuff like baked and broiled and try to cut it back there abit...

I'm impressed by your strength to continue, your achievement is amazing and encouraging!:)
 
Your doing great. I had quite the set back yesterday....and you are right...this is just how it has to be. I have dwelled on the fact that what makes eating right so hard is that you can't just give up food like you can alcohol or drugs. I need to think that food is nutrition only...if the Dr. Gave me a a prescription that I had to take to survive, I wouldn't eat the whole bottle in one sitting. I would take the prescribed amount. That is how I have to approach food now. Take care. Your doing a good job for yourself.
 
well back from the casino and the buffet. I didnt go overboard. well not as bag as i could have. I stuck mostly with the seafood. well there was the shrimp pasta(bad me) A fruit plate and I got full so fast there wasnt as much to worry about as i thought. well its 4 am and time for a nap lol........
 
Sounds like you did alright.

You are right about the weight loss. It is just something we have to do. That's how it is.
 
well its another day. Im not beating myself up about anything i ate last night. Dont think i did too bad. Im sure i was over my 2000-3000 calories. These things come up where we cant get the food we want/need on our diet. Think all you can do is make the best choices you can and move on......
 
You know I kind of believe in the diet binge. In other words, I didn't make the best choice, but I did better than I normally would have. All the bad stuff you left on the buffet table is weight that's not on you.
 
well i walked in and I looked around at all the fried goodies and the seafood and what would have been normally plates and plates of goodies. It just clicked. It was more of a huge choice rather than all i could hold. I got full so quickly it didnt matter anyhow. I had a good time and didnt go overboard. I didnt even have any of the free drinks they bring you. I have come to realize water taste good lol.
