UGH...I hate the wavering scales game! This morning at my regular weigh in time it was 280...however, we ate late last night and probably have a lotta water retention going on due to salt.

Bfst today was our "BIG" Sunday omelette:

smoked turkey
portabella mushrooms
1/4c mozzarella cheese

YUMMY!

I never intended...

I never intended to be losing weight like I am this week...

My best friend was found dead in the sand on Wednesday...no answers, only pain...I cant bring myself to put much in my stomach as I'm just so sick it wont stay down...I've been lucky to have an egg sandwich and something lite for dinner each day...

:angelsad2:
 
Oh I'm so sorry to read your news about your friend. Remember to be nice to you during such an awful difficult time.

Good luck

Ana
 
Thank You

Thanks Anna...its been really hard.

I've lost another pound, but I think I've slowed it down to a healthier rate at least for now...we got in late from working on arrangements for my friend and ordered a thin crusted veggie pizza and indulged in 2 bread sticks each =)

This morning we made grits and I again indulged in having 2 whole eggs over-easy to have with them :blush5:
 
I was just going to post on how well it sounded like you were doing, reading your diary from the beginning...when I got to your latest news. :(

So sorry to hear about your friend.
 
Thank You

Thanks you guys for the kind words...its been difficult. Due to the fact she has no local family...WE were her family, then the born family has given us full control on handling her arrangements.

Each day its a little easier to greet the sun.

Today we had a nice breakfast of grits and eggs...I had 2 whole eggs and an egg white...thought I could use the xtra today.

Missed lunch by accident really....

Dinner was a small bowl of chili and a grilled chicken sandwich.
 
Mini Goal

Bam, I hit my minigoal 2 weeks early...I guess that is somewhat of a gift from my recently deceased best friend...damn, Leanne, I think maybe if we'd have gotten a membership to the gym or something, that would have been better!

I miss and love you anyway! :beating:
 
Getting stronger

Getting emotionally stronger everyday. I've now found out with 100% certainty that I am not an emotional eater...if I were, I'd be back to 300+

Staying on track...scales are dropping...will update later...been a rough couple of weeks...
 
Just a quick message...

The memorial service is coming up on Saturday...everything is coming together.

I've dumped now a grand total of 37lbs :party:
