Hangs head in shame....back again***Diary of Kaplooie***

YEs I did LaMa, lol! Woke up the next morning down at 225 also! Lol, it did not stick though. After thanksgiving I am back up to 227.6.

Just spent 2 hours at the gym. 60 minutes doing cardio and another hour in and out of the dry sauna. I'm at net -270 calories for the day! Whoop! Lol! Hope to see that 225 on the scale again REAL soon.
 
I had posted that you were a naughty, naughty girl, but must have deleted it! I do know that I had over-indulged as well, so who knows? I have found that alcohol is affecting me much more now that I have lost this extra weight. I'll have to cut right down! You'll see 225 soon KP, because you are awesome. 2 hours at the gym- very impressive :D xoCate
 
It seems that I will have to go to the gym again today. This week has been a disaster for weight loss and I'm behind myself by two lbs still. Maybe I ate too much yesterday too. That and I got that 225 on the scale on the second day that I had not worked out last week so its possible that my muscles had let go of hoarded water. Trying not to cry over it. But I know officially have 7 days until I have to wear that dress and I'm freaking out because I am not ready!! Well, I am, I have the whole outfit together, shoes, tights, dress and spanks to hold it all in, lol! I do need to go to the salon here in town soon and see what they have for a statement necklace or cute earrings as the neckline of the dress is plain and needs something to catch one's eye.

I made a very big pot of very low calorie vegetable soup to get me through the week. I will do that through Wednesday and then Thursday and Friday I will be doing zero carb to get any residual water weight off of me and Saturday will be fasted (except coffee) until the ball. They serve a massive buffet style dinner at the party before the dancing begins. Crazy dress aspirations or not I'm really looking forward to this, its the one big party I go to a year where we get to get all fancy, and then after of course we hit the pubs. And then its no more partying or bingeing until Christmas.
 
225.7 this morning, that made me a bit happy. Woke up with a sore throat though so that put me off. I've been drinking gypsy cold care tea all day and praying it won't turn into a virus that will keep me down on Saturday. I'll go to the ball sick or not but I want to have tons of fun.

Good thing I made that big pot of soup, its going to hit the spot without hurting my throat tonight for dinner. Skipping my workout tonight though, I'm going to be early and hopefully sleeping hard.

B: Coffee (100)
L: Soup, chicken, cottage cheese (300)
S: cabbage with laughing cow cheese wedge smeared on it x2 (90)
D: Soup, chicken, cottage cheese (300)

Bonus that the soup is not too salty so it won't make me retain water like crazy.
 
Good morning WLF forum friends! I am in a ridiculously good mood today. mostly because I weighed in at 224.2 this morning and so far I've managed to avoid getting too sick. I still have a sore throat and the gland on the left side of my neck is a bit tender but I've been getting good sleep so I think I'm keeping it at bay. Since the 16th I've lost 10 lbs!! Even though I totally gorged on thanksgiving. I'm very happy. I want to lose 5 more lbs before J gets back on Dec. 24th. Not FOR him but because I know with him here and Christmas I'll be cheating like crazy for a few weeks until he goes back to work full time.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Woke up this AM, ready for the ball, stepped on the scale and 223.0! Whoop!! that last lbs came off without me even trying! But I'll gain it back tonight with all the good food and drink.
Got my hair colored for the occasion (hide all the gray), got my nails done last night, I'm about to hop in the shower and shave everything, lol! I tried on my dress again last night and messaged some pics to J and he grounded me, said I needed to wear sweat pants under it and I'm not allowed to talk to other men at the ball so that is a good sign that I look pretty good in it. After tonight, next goal weight is 218, but I feel like I should set that goal lower. However, I've just been doing cardio at the gym most days and I'm going to re-start my strength program so I'll probably stall out in weight loss for a few weeks doing that.
 
Hi honeybuns. I wasn't really MIA,just quietly lurking. 223? :) Grounded? ;) Sweat pants & no talking to men, hey? :D Must look pretty damned good in that dress! Go KP!!! :party: Have fun sweetie pie, xoxo Cate

Ooooo Jolly well done. Wish I could say the same
 
No 5 day hangover, but that cold I was fighting off last week finally hit me hard. And work has been busy and sucking the life out of me. By the time I get home at night I just want to eat soup and sleep so that's what I've been doing. Maintaining at 223 though so thats good. Its also TOM so I'm hoping I'll have a loss of water weight to reveal that I didn't maintain on two bowls of soup a day all week and actually lost something.
 
Finally feeling human again. Down to 219 also so I'm pretty happy. We are supposed to have a crazy storm tonight so today will just be getting ready for that, cleaning up anything in the yard that might blow around and such. I'm going to try to make it to the gym today so I don't feel like such a slug, I figure a little physical activity will make me feel better.
 
Oy I have been super lazy lately with updating and reading diaries! I'm getting around to them all tonight! I promise!

This AM weighed in at 216.5, THATS A 16 LBS WEIGHT LOSS IN A MONTH!!! Crazy. I'm on a roll. I've been working out several times a week, logging food like its my full time job and being sick probably helped a lot too. I've been trying to do very low calorie with low carb so its working. I found the sweet spot.

J is coming home on the 24th and its not to what he thinks he's coming home to. When he left in October things were rocky with us and we decided to not be totally exclusive. I met a guy at the ball and we have been talking a lot and things started getting more serious this week and last night they got REAALLY serious. So...he did ask me to end things romantically with J so that we can give it a go. And I agreed that I wanted to pursue this instead of that. And even if this goes nowhere I'm probably better off. Unfortunately I'm going to have to figure out what to call him since his name also starts with a J...that is the most complicated part of this whole change..how to identify him in my diary, LOL!

SO! lately I've been eating a lot of baked chicken breast. I buy a whole package and bake it in my dutch oven for an hour or so, then shred it and put it on salads or add it to the veggie soup I've been making since I've been sick. Also eating a lot of steamed veggie packs from the freezer with scrambled eggbeaters on top and hot sauce. I've basically got my day automated for food. Breakfast is always just coffee, since I was 16. I rarely eat a real breakfast unless I'm super hung chow and just want fatty carby food. Lunch is the green giant antioxidant blend lightly sauced veggie pack, eggbeaters scrambled, hot sauce and if I'm feeling particularly fiesty I'll add some reduced sugar ketchup. Dinner is shredded chicken on soup or salad, with a dollop of fat free cottage cheese or a slice of habanero Colby melted onto it (for the soup). Snack have been cabbage or sweet peppers with laughing cow cheese wedges. I'm averaging between 1000 and 1200 calories a day and <40g net carbs. I'm never really hungry because I eat at regular intervals. Some late mornings I'm hungry waiting for lunch and on those days I'll just eat it early. I was 218.8 two days in a row this week so last night I had a wine and pizza binge night...planned...and woke up this am to 216.5. Dehydration for sure but I was 219 for four days in a row and knew I was in for a whoosh. Wine is the best whoosing tool I know ;)

Anyways, I'm done rambling and off to catch up with my favorite people!
 
All of the above is AWESOME! The new J can be NJ, but that would remind me of my BIL. He could be LJ, latest J, or J2, but they would remind you of J1. How about NIJ- new & improved J? Or his 2 initials maybe. Anyhow, whatever you call him, I hope he is lovely & I hope you stay happy! Mwah! xoxo Cate
