On my drive back from Chicago, I noticed my ancles looked like stuffed sausages. Of course, it was the last "hurrah" so I ate:

left over pizza, 2 pieces
chicago dog with F.F.s
mud pie, split with daughter

cheesburger and vanilla malt
1 beer

I got on the scale and I have gained 6 pounds in 4 days. Oh lord have mercy!!! I'm not even going to accept it yet. I am going to eat nothing but salads and fruit/vegtable juices today to clean out and give my system a break and see what the ol scales says tomoorow. Of course, I have gained but I'm hoping some of it is water??????????? Am I dreaming? We'll see. I almost feel like crying,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,:cry:

Drink Water, Water, Water. Put Ice in it, seems refreshing than :)
In one day you may see a couple oz off, but in a few or four days you will see a drop. Don't get upset over not dropping over night ... it will probably take three or four days to trully take effect... but don't give up ..just know .. We know .. IT will go down...that pesky scale...and you will benefit ... Just get back on the bandwagon with the rest of us ... don't lose hope and cry...

You can do it! And we all believe in you!

best wishes
always :)

better but not good

So, i get home from my trip and don't sleep until 2;30 am, Then I get up around 7:30 am because I can't sleep. Needless to say, I had NO energy for exercising. I mostly set up a sparks account. Its a cool site but so much to learn there. Anyhoo.........I ate pretty well but I still have company and it is a holiday so we had a BBQ. I made grilled salmon, red potatoes and salad. Good and healthy. I did eat a bite of italian susage tho.......and had 2 beers. Not the best day but tommorrow will be even better as I am going to bed EARLY and will have lots of energy for exercising and won't have to cook for people and be festive. How bad is that :eek: ? Well, I think you know what I mean! I think it is hard to get back on track sometimes but I did better and know the next day is the day to turn it completely around. Hope all had a great holiday!!!!!:)
 
hey,

I just read your diary. You are doing well. You visited your children and had a good time. When your eating really healthy and then go off for a few days for a vacation its easy to gain weight back but I find it comes off easier than the first time you lost it. I've found sleeping enough is definitly necessary for exercise and eating right ... when I'm sleepy i crave crappy food.

Grilled salmon was a great choice... I love salmon its one of my favorite fish to eat. Have you tried chicken sausage its a healthier alternative to regular sausage and most of them are quite yummy.

I hate that alcohol tastes so darn good! If I can figure out a way past the beer and margaritas, I'll share with everyone-

I went kayaking on Lake superior tonight to watch the firworks from out on the lake. Wow, it was incredable..........plus I got some great exercise to boot!

Now I have to get to sleep so i can do it again tomorrow.:jump:
 
out at camp!!!

I have been out to camp for the last week so I haven't been able to update my diary or anything!!! HOwver, I am doing good. I have been doing a colon cleanse and am on the 4th day. The 4th day is when you start to feel better and I do!!! No caffeine is hard!!! No food that isn't fresh is Hard but I will tell you, I feel better all ready!!!! I am using the rise and shine program that I used a couple of years ago. It really is effective but you have to be very disapplined to begin with and then after all the cravings go away, it is easy to keep up because you feel so good and you have a lot invested by then. Also, weight loss is an added benefit! The best way for me to do this is to stay out here in the woods at my cabin and keep away from the stresses of life. Luckily I have time off in the summer to do this. Ahyhoo.........I am sitting in a bigboy restaurant drinking tea and having a side salad. A little off my program but they have free wireless internet so...........here I am. Hope everyone is doing well and when I get back to civilazation, I will do more reading and responding. :boxing: Karen
 
Rise and Shine

Wow, I have so many questions about that! I've never heard of this program. I have used a system you can get at any drug store that uses lots of fiber, laxatives and milk thistle (whatever that is). It lasts two weeks, but after that, I found myself right back where I started. I would love to know where you got this or any info you have. I am very interested in cutting the cravings.
 
Come back to civilization soon! I miss reading about your great workouts hiking or swimming or biking. I look forward to the day when I will have the freedom to do that!
 
colon cleanse

Hi katy, I just visited your diary. I hadn't been to mine yet so I will answer your questions here. Yes, the Arise and Shine cleanse is very effective and of course you do lose weight although i do not recommend anyone do this for the wieght loss alone as it is really about cleaning out the toxins in your systems and getting rid of cravings and such. For me to go with out most foods, coffee, and other goodies like Mojitos, well, it has to have something good to it. When I did it 3 years ago, I lost about 15 pounds in the 3 weeks. I also felt more energy, better skin, less joint pain, less bloating, and of course less cravings. It is important to ease back into eating again slowly staying with the raw foods and vegetable juices but cutting back on the supplements and other stuff you eat/drink for the cleanse. My last day will be on Thursday the 27th of July. I have a 90 minute massage scheduled as a little incentive, bonus. I have lost 8 pounds so far. (I had to "relose" a few that I gained on my trip to Chicago. Ha Ha!!!!!!) I really hope that I will not only feel better,,,,,,,,,,,but also hit the 170's too. It would be a great boost to my diet efforts. When I am done, I hope to be better able to go back to that 1200-1400 plan and make it work. Supposedly, as you clean your your digestive system and liver, you actually digest your food better and it ultimately helps with these diets. Well, I'll keep you posted. :rotflmao:
 
okay, after all that I just posted yesterday, TODAY, I feel like crap and want to eat something, anything, hopefully healthy so I went to lunch with my husband and had a very healthy organic salad (good) but I also ate the 2 pieces of sourdough bread (bad) that came with it. Well, that wouldn't be so bad if i was just dieting but It is just not good for a cleanse. Oh well, I think I will recover! ha ha

In the meantime, I am on the way back to the woods where temptation is under wraps more. :doh:
 
wow, that sounds like a good plan. I never really felt any different on the program I used. I will try looking yours up and doing a bit more research. I think it would benefit me greatly. It's hard being as young as I think I am and not having enough energy to keep up with my man (15 yrs older) much less my kids!

Good Luck! I hope you enjoy that massage
 
I'm back from camp and gave up on my cleanse after 10 days. I just wasn't feeling well this time. I've tried to figure it out and I think I was exercising too much and not eating enough. Or perhaps I went too fast and had too many toxins releasing at once. At any rate, I feel like what I have done was worth it and now I am back on just the ol dieting thingy. Perhpas next summer I'll do another 10 days.

so,,,,,,I am making fried chicken tonight for my son's birthday. His request. I haven't made it in ages. It won't be a good day for me but what the heck!:eek:

tommorrow, on track and execising..............:)
 
Oh Man! Fried Chicken sounds so good... with mashed potatoes and gravy and green beens (or fried okra)......daydreaming.....yum!

I hope it was good!

Oh yeah,,,,,,,,,,,it was too good:confused: I'm on a bad roll here. I haven't even weighted myself. I got sick and felt terrible. I think that was what was happening at the end of the cleanse and I didn't know it. Today was the first day i felt rather normal. I;m hoping I can get back on track tomorrow. I always have to exercise or I lose my dedication to eating well. anyhoo......here's to getting back on track!!!:rotflmao:
