Update

This morning my weight went up to 152.0, which was a bit odd, but didn't concern me too much. By now, trust me, I'm used to little fluctuations, and 1.5 lbs up is pretty much nothing!

At 99 Bottles, I joined two girl friends, 3 guy acquaintances, and the BF for Trivia Night. It was a load of fun, the BF figured this one out when we couldn't (at first anyway):

three letter word (real word) ___ ___ ___

that makes a new word with each of these prefixes:

b
pr
h
sc
j
y

Ya'll can figure it out, I might post the answer later. ;)

I had 2 glasses of wine, and man I am HUNG OVER! Amazing, I suppose 1245 previous calories of raw food doesn't make for much soaking. I watched as people ate huge plates of hamburgers, criss-cross fries, and cheesy garlic bread. One of my girl friends ordered a salad. It was weird, watching them eat all that junk and think about how their bodies might process it. Also, it was weird because I probably would have been drinking beer and snacking off of some of the fries, otherwise.

The BF spent the night although it's a 45 minute drive from my house to his work, but probably longer since it's raining. Sweet! I was pleased to be able to cuddle (and get laid, I ain't gonna lie!).

I am SO TIRED from the hangover and working 8 1/2 hours all week! At least I won't wince as badly when I pay bills this month.
 
Been designing graphics all morning, time to pack up and hop into my bunnymobile over to the warehouse. I'm doing receiving AND orders today. Office work sure is....a drag but hey! It pays much better than a lot of shittier jobs! Seem like they might want me to work at that location next week, too. no more Lazy Bunny!

Today I was exhausted and hung, but my energy is still up from the good food I eat. But today has been silly so far:

2 oz raw Jack style cheese (Margaret wept ;))
1 mango

some dark chocolate slivers from Peru

1 slice raw "bread" with 4 tablespoons raw "Cocoa Bliss"
in case you're wondering what that is:



So far my food has been pretty much all FAT. LOL! I haven't been meal planning, and "bread" and crackers aren't so palatable, so I'm just plain not hungry. I suppose the fat satiates me, I'm going to watch my macros later, I'm so tired from working, exercising, and going out all week.... :svengo:

790 calories so far. I'm going to get some Kombucha and berries for lunch and actually make a real salad for dinner. Can you believe I'm so lazy I haven't made ONE salad? I just bought some pre-made raw salads and sometimes I'd just buy a head of lettuce and eat as is! LAZY! LAZY!

Sigh, back to work.

I joined that better body challenge. I'm going to have fun thinking about my goals later! And I'll finally get someone else to take a before pic. Might as well get it in the gym!
 
Hi Steve!

James: Ding ding!! :D

Alleged Bad Bunny

Yesterday I ate raw, worked, and worked out. After the gym, my girl friend Ali was back from a brief stint in Colorado, and she called me to let me know. I picked her up that evening and we went to Cafe La Vie where I had DELICIOUS raw pizza with sun-dried-tomato raw cashew nutmilk cheese, marinated mushrooms, and veggies, a salad, and a berry shake. Then.....

I may or may not have allegedly taken my 20-year-old girl friend to a high profile wine bar and drank at the bar and got away with it. Hee hee! BAD BUNNY!!! We had SO MUCH FUN though, we talk and laugh and talk and giggle and talk about lewd, lecherous, nasty things and all the dirty deeds we've done....it gets really juicy, we've both lead interesting lives. If you looked at us you'd see two nice girls laughing and chatting. If you walked up and eavesdropped you'd be so shocked at our conversation, it would curl your hair! :eek: We're hilarious :rotflmao:

We then went to our buddy's house, the one who happens to be in love with me and probably has been for over 2 years. He writes songs over beats and is VERY good at it, so he rapped for us, then I told him to put on his mask and dance for us. And he did! We giggled in a self-induced bubble of hilarity on the floor in a warm heap. We were silly. We ARE silly.

Weight has stabilized at 152.0 lbs. I'm disappointed to see it up from my new low of 150.5 lbs, but fairly certain I'll see that number again by the end of this month. I went to Kickboe yesterday and I plan on strength training after work, and possibly some elliptical, too. C'mon, I started the month at 157.0 lbs. It is the 25th and I'm 152.0, that's pretty fucking good!

I like my raw food. I was worried I would get hung-over after the wine last night, so I drank a Kombucha an hour before bed, and I feel GRRRRRRRRREAT today! When I dropped Ali off at her house, she turned on the tube and went to On Demand and played "Alice in Wonderland" with Gene Wilder, Martin Short, and Whoopi Goldberg--wow what a trip, man! Anyway, I watched as Ali binge-ate and tried to stop her, but there was no stopping her. She ate chili covered in cheese and sour cream with cornbread smothered in way too much butter--it looked like a frosted cake! And then she had chips and dip.....as I drank my Kombucha. I tried to say, "You're binging, I know because I've done it, do you think you should?" and she said, "Valerie, don't I look all right?" and I said yes and shut up. I suppose I have no right to interfere with someone else's binge. Course, she wasn't mad at me. :)

Anyway, today is raining still. Rain ALL WEEK. No bunny romps through the forest this weekend :(

OH! Yesterday during Kickboe, a lady who had gone to that class for years like me, then took like, almost a year off because she was pregnant and then busy with the new daughter, was back. She said, "Skinny Minnie!" to me in reference to my form. I smiled and said "Thanks!" but was a bit mystified because when she was going regularly I was about 156-160 lbs, not really much more than I am now. But I wasn't as muscley/tight/toned, though, which makes sense!
 
Hey girl, you are still doing REALLY well! Your at 152 now? What is a healthy weight for your size??? I'm 5'6 and 150 would look smoking on me! lol
 
Hi Korrie!
5'7", a healthy BMI is between 18.5-24.9, which is 118 to 159 lbs. Hmm. At 118 I'd be probably pretty gross looking as I have decent T&A normally. I'm healthy now, it's pretty much out of vanity that I want to be closer to a BMI of 21.5-22.
 
Yes, I remember Maleficent mentioning several times that she thinks a lot of people want to loose weight for vanity, but lie and say for health. I figgered I wouldn't bother lying! :rotflmao:

Of course, I want to be healthy. But with my lifestyle, I'm pretty much covered ;)

Of course vanity plays her part for all of us. I dare say anyone is in this strictly for their health...c'mon...lets be honest! Don't we all want our bodies to look good too? Well, I sure as hell do! But I don't want to sacrifice my health with being too thin or too heavy...so I have dual motivation. Although, I have never been too thin...nor or I ever envision that being a problem for me... :)
 
I was chatting with Margaret and she reminded me that I'd be better off if I "grow my own" (veggies, etc.) I agree, and I have a plan.

I know a cute farmer boy. My amygdala and hypothalamus give signals to my frontal lobes that I lust after him slightly, but of course I can intellectually choose to keep my paws off of his [tight, rounded, bubble] butt :p He's very nice and I enjoy talking to him about What's in Season. I'm going to contact him and befriend him (from a distance!) and make him help me figure out the best things to plant right now. Then I'll reap my rewards. In the meantime I'll give him wine for food! Oh, last summer he brought flowers for Kelly the bartender (I know him from the Brewery he's a Saturday regular) so I asked him to bring me some next time....and he did! Pretty yellow and orange dahlias! :beating: Sure was nice of him!

Yes. I am going to try to turn my black thumb GREEN.:troll:

Hi Beth!!! Healthy weight is part of overall health, indeed. But there is that large range.......[BMI range]
 
Ummm.... errrrr.... does that farmer boy need himself a ho.... I'd be more than happy to volunteer.... :D HA! That's so not right. Bad Sheryl! Hey amazon bunny... dropping in to say I miss you and good luck with the raw diet. Oh.. and I also spoke to Randy. He's been busy doing his thing and spends time on msn more than anything. Just wanted to give you a heads up, girl.. Lurve yas.

Tyly, Kimberly & Sheryl! Hugs and love to you! Farmer boy's ass is so fine, I think my camera would probably get wet and ruined if I tried to take a picture! Oooh Bad Bunny!!! :D Have an excellent rest of your weekend!

Update

Still raw, enjoying life. The boyfriend has become everything I wanted him to be since December, abouts. He is sweet, kind, caring, affectionate, says wonderful things about and to me, and he even bought me a fancy raw food "cook" book for no apparent reason :hug2: He even wants sex more! YAY!!!! :sifone: This week though he has been on a bit of a binge, drinking roughly 7 beers a day every day this week. So he says. We live miles and miles away and our jobs are in even more opposite directions. We went to the brewery today and amazingly they have and have had Kombucha on tap for a while, so I drank that while he had beer. Right now we're in my bed, we just had sex a while ago and he was so drunk he almost fell asleep during! :rotflmao: I kept saying, "Honey, you want to stop?" and he was like "No! It feels good!" He finished strong, though. Now he's passed out. Just like a man, right!?! :rofl:

I don't mind, I wanted some time to hop on the forum and relax. Oh shit he just started to snore a bit! UGH!

Farmer Boy was NOT at the brewery, to my dismay. I talked to some other people and I think I'm just going to research crop-planting myself. Sigh! What a LAZY BUNNY I am, to want a cute farmer boy to do the thinking for me! Sheesh!

My weight went up! It is now 152.5 lbs! BUT I checked my records; at the beginning of Week 3 [of my weight loss diet I made for myself] I was 153.5 lbs. My caloric deficit was 3574 calories. I am now 152.5 lbs. That makes absolute perfect sense. So! I am pleased, then! :coolgleamA:

Yesterday I went to the gym and did my upper body, then hopped on the elliptical and went for AN HOUR. I dunno why I did it, really, but afterwards I felt like I violated my damn self! I had fun, though. I rested today, and tomorrow I'm going to drive to the Bay to visit my girl friend and her daughter, the one whom I saw born at her house with the midwife and such. I want to go running but it has been raining so much....I HATE mud. I'm a prissy bunny I guess, I can't stand getting mud in my socks!

Huh huh huh huh: :pumpkin::conehead::pumpkin:
 
i hate it when my bf drinks...he just wants to sleep...me when i'm drunk i just wanna have sex. me made a compromise..we're having only one drink or no drinking at all :D

i'm glad things are good between you guys. you deserve to have only the best :)
 
Good weekend!

This weekend I rested from exercise both Saturday AND Sunday. But because I'm eating raw, my calories were 1990 and 1880 respectively, giving me a slight deficit anyway! :) Normally I just acquire surpluses on weekends.....

It was rainy all weekend, and particularly rainy today. I kissed the BF goodbye and hopped in my bunnymobile for an hour and 15 minute drive to the Bay to hang out with my best girl friend since we were 7 and her 2 year old daughter, Kaya. Kaya is a GREAT kid and so adorable! She LOVES bunnies, so we had a lot to talk about :D Here are a few pictures.

I'm very tired, and want to go to sleep--another 40+ hour week this week (YAY and BOO!) :) :(

Weight was down another lb to 151.5 this morning!
