Lisa's Final Countdown, The Good Days, the Bad, & the Ugly

Hi Lisa!
I've been away for a while, but I'm back, and I thought I'd stop and say hi. But it looks like you haven't been here lately. Come back so I can get to know you again. I took some time off to clear my head of weight loss/exercise/diet stuff, and focus on living life, and I actually lost weight. Maybe thats what you're doing now.
 
Sorry guys, it's been crazy hectic around here. I've only had a couple times to even attempt to log in and when I did I got interrupted. I've been working overtime at work, studying for exams (which I have another one today), and we've had alot of company at our new house which I have really enjoyed. It's been a good hectic though but not much time for me at the computer. I'll try and catch up with everyone soon, love ya'll and miss ya!

I know I shouldn't be a slave to the scale but it's so hard not to check everyday when I'm seeing results. This morning I'm down another half pound so apparently the popcorn yesterday didn't slow me up too much. Hubby is doin great too...he's down 18lbs :) Hmm....I wonder if I could get him to join this forum.

Anyway today was a very long day and I am so tired, spent most of the days scrubbing and packing. We're becoming first time home buyers and moving in a few weeks so the pressure is on to get it all done. I'll be SO happy when we're moved.

I haven't started doing any cardio yet. I'm holding off until my weight comes down more because last time I was at this weight my doctor told me to hold off so I didn't blow out my bad knee. After we're moved out of our apartment I think I'll try and find a stationary bike since we'll have room...then I won't have to wait.

Food today:

Breakfast: none, we got up late and just had brunch

Lunch: Hamburger and mushrooms in alfredo sauce on low carb pasta (dreamfields)

Dinner: Grilled hotdogs and hamburgers with cheese, no buns

I still don't have a huge appetite because of the byetta shot but at least I didn't feel nauseous today :).

I must tell you the person(s) who invented that Dreamfields should get a nobel prize! My Dad has bad diabetes and he eats that and his blood sugar barely moves! I tried it and thought it was going to be pasty or be "fiberous" and I was pleasantly surprised!
 
Hey lisa!!!!!!!!! I didn't fall off the face of the earth, I was just sick sick sick! Sick as a dog! I've been keeping up with you, and totally sympathize with the MIA and rut-feeling. I think it is just that time of year. it's cloudy, the days are shorter, and it is always snowing! Well at least here in Ohio it is! So depressing, and I need the sun more than anyone. You'll get out of this rut, i know it. About the scale, I can tell you not to worry about it but the truth is it hurts when you work so hard and you don't get to see the results. I'm like that all the time. Sometimes, i wish that I could lose weight like the biggest loser, but alas I don't. ARGH. I just want to be thin!!!!!!!!

Anyways, enough rambling. i missed you girl and i hope to hear from you soon!

LOVES!
 
Sorry to be MIA for so long guys. I'll be honest that gaining 5lbs in 2 days did send me for a loop even if it was water retention. But then like I said things got really hectic and at first it was in a good way I was enjoying taking a break from obsessing over every thing that went into my mouth.

But I have to be honest I found myself not wanting to log in here and it had nothing to do with not being on track, because that never stopped me from gabbing on here before. Without going into detail something made me very uncomfortable and reminded me that you can make friends on here but you can never really be sure who you're talking to...yea I know this is common sense. I'm the same person online as off and I've never been good at keeping my guard up so sometimes I get surprised.

Then on a seperate note, when Shandy just disappeared without a trace that really bothered me and was the final straw. Silly I know....I understand people come and go or are gone for periods of time but for a friend to just disappear suddenly like that....I had to wonder why and what was said to her for her to leave like that without even saying goodbye.

That being said, it was just bad timing and with school and other stuff getting overwhelming I just couldn't deal with stuff on here too. So I'm back :) Not back on my diet but back, lol. When I didn't log on here to be accountable it was pretty easy to slide back into old ways and not pay attention. Being sick with bronchitis the last 3 weeks I didn't think about it much either but I think that helped in my favor being too sick to care about food. I weighed myself tonight and I'm at 329.6 and was pretty happy to have gained so little back. I'm through this rough spot and still ahead of the game.
