MysticRealm's WeightLoss Diary

Today was a good day of eating. I again am quite tired and I don't know why. I haven't been tired like this in the past when I have eaten the same amount of calories and this time I am trying to eat more healthy than in the past.
Tomorrow I am weighing in and I am trying not to get to excited to see a big loss because I weighed in on Monday so it's only been a few days. I weighed in on Monday cause I wanted to know where I was so if I was up from the last time I weighed I would know. I didn't want to weigh in this thursday and be heavier than the last time I weighed in when really I lost weight during this time and the gained weight was actually from the bad week I had had. (wow that is difficult to explain). So I am hoping for a pound but that will be tight.
 
Still doing well. Yesterday I went to a christmas party and I did eat a fair bit. I had saved calories for it but I may have passed it. But even if I did I am right on track again today, so I can call that my 'cheat day' though I don't think I couldn't have gone too far over my limit.
 
Finished off yesterday well. Today I did well. I had a subway wrap for lunch cause we were out and almost immediately afterwards I got quite sharp pains in my kinda chest area. It's mostly right between my ribs below where one would perform cpr. since then that has eased up a little bit to a dull discomfort but I have been feeling not well since.
 
Well I feel better today. Maybe it was just a touch of food poisoning or something. Still not 100% but pretty close most of the time. Doing well food wise.
 
Even though all my clients are giving my chocolate and goodies for christmas I have not had a single piece!
I weighed myself today and I lost 2 pounds this week which puts me at 150.6
 
Still doing well. I accidentally bought a shirt in Palm Springs last month that was a size small (thought I had only grabbed mediums). It was a bit tight but knowing I was planning on losing weight I bought it anyways. Well today I am wearing that shirt to the mall and I think it fits great! Go me! I would REALLY like to get down to 146 before leaving for Costa Rica on the 29th but that is a tough goal. I will try hard but will settle with 147 or 148 if that's how it goes.
I went out with my guy friends last night. They were drinking and eating nachos and such, and though I don't drink I would have normally gotten a pop and I only had water and I did not have a single nacho! I still haven't touched ANY of the christmas candy my clients have given me either!
 
Still going strong.
I really hate when I don't know the calories of something. Like when my mom makes home made food like piggies in a blanket. I can only guess at that. I suppose I could go find all the ingredients in the correct amounts and do all the math and add it up but she rarely makes them so doing all that work for a meal or 2 a couple times a year seems like such work!
So instead I just eat what I think is an appropriate amount for the calorie amount I have guessed it to be!
 
Another good day today.
On Saturday I went out and bought a new swimsuit for our trip to Costa Rica. I bought a bikini, and though I don't feel quite the way I would like in it I don't feel too badly in it either. I hope it still fits me when I lose another 10-15+ pounds!
 
Still doing well. Still able to do much better in the protein department. Still need to be better in the fruit and veggie department.
I am really hoping to be down 2 pounds this weigh in but we will see.
I think I will drop down to 1500 calories on Thursday to try to get a bit more off before going to Costa Rica
 
So I weighed in this morning and was only down to 149.2 which was a bit dissapointing. I was hoping for 2 pound loss but a 1.4 pound loss isn't too bad.
I randomly weighed myself this afternoon right after eating and was down to 148.8 so that was strange so I am hoping that I will still be down to 146-147 by the time we leave for our trip. I am using 149.2 as my official weigh in though because that was my earlier morning weigh in that I always do. Though it was not as early in the morning as usual because I didn't work today so slept until 8:30 and also did not go to bed till late so I hope that's why the scale was higher than I thought it would be.
Oh well, still losing and still going strong.
 
Great job. You look wonderful.

I weigh myself monthly. You can really get addicted to weighing yourself too much and it leads to disappointment.
 
Today wasn't my best day due to going out to a buffet for brunch. I didn't eat anything before and I tried to not take too much but I imagine that it still added up to around 1000 calories or a bit more. I didn't eat anything afterwards till supper where I tried to not eat too much. Hopefully I didn't go too high on my calories!
 
Late last night i had a craving I just could not beat and ended up having a bagel yet. Sigh. AND I have to go out to dinner tonight again as well! I should have about 850 calories left so if I pack half my meal up to go I should be alright.
I am excited that my parents just bought a treadmill. I won't be here till after the new year but still. A big problem with me and working out is A. Boredom and B. having to drive to get to a gym. With a treadmill I can do it while watching TV at home so that takes care of boredom AND driving!
 
Having a hard time since the buffet. This has always been my problem I have one bad meal and I have an impossible time getting back on track! I am gonna have to REALLY buckle down and get to it! (which will be hard when on vacation and it will be a buffet morning noon and night! I hope they don't like pasta down there cause that's my downfall!)
