It'll go soon. Your body is probably in crash mode from lack of food and so it clings onto all the fat it can. It's pretty much starvation mode--Once you're body realises it's not being starved any more, the scales will shift and you'll see you've lost weight 
I hope you're feeling better x

Ohh! I want to be a Medical Office Administrator. ;3 And when I started, I went from like 3000-3500 calories a day, straight to like 1700, then the nest day it was 1400, and now its getting a bit lower, and sticking. 9 lbs, and week one isn't over yet! ;3
I think you are awesome. I loved reading all of your diary today. So funny, so refreshing. Def. nice to see someone looking positive! I'm so sick of negative people in my life. Me being one of them. Keep up the good work, and stay funny.

I am feeling much better today. Much more human, if that is possible considering I really wasn't reflective of the species prior to being sick. My doc said "Of course you gained weight with saline solution, its salt water you fool." so I guess that solves the mystery of the 7 lbs gain. Doc said it'll be the quickest 7 lbs weight loss I'll ever have so I should put some serious money down on a weight loss bet soon. I'm still sooo drained though that working out seems impossible. SOooo, of course I'm not going to do it. Tomorrow. I promise.
I've been trying to eat but nothing tastes right and as soon as it hits the system I'm in pain, so I'm sticking to bland, easy foods with no dairy. Pretty much been eating bread, crackers, rice, carbs carbs and carbs. Oh, I had some broccoli too which was a mistake because broccoli is identifiable on the way out when your system is as clean as mine is and GRODY! I really want some bufflo chicken wings and sweet potato fries with ranch...but I'm pretty sure that would hurt my ass on the way out with how rapid cycle my digestion is right now. So, I'll hold off till after one of those binging holidays where the heavy food sticks with me for weeks.
I got a promotion I wasn't expecting today when someone quit, which was lame because its just a "promotion" with a little "p" and not a "PROMOTION!" with a big "$$$". Hopefully they rehire that position soon because its more trouble then its worth. But, I guess I have to put on my big girl panties, suck it up and make sure the job is getting done regardless of if there is a body at the desk. More hours, less free time...incentive to post the job and hire quick. Anybody wanna move to the middle of nowhere, freeze your ass off and get paid very little? didn't think so...

so, massive stress leads to weight loss. I'm not hating all the stress today, because I fit into a pair of pants that were previously in the "cannot wear due to camel toe" pile. No toe!
I'm sure someone was disappointed.
Anyways, as previously mentioned, I'm under stress, becasue I'm working a lot. Its flu season, and we are getting spanked! And, its reports week so I've got some crap to do on the computer that makes my hair fall out and turn white. No really, I've gone pretty gray in the last few weeks. It's superb. I look twice my age.
I'm sitting here drinking my one glass of red wine I'm allotted for the day, I have heart burn sooooo bad, but I'm going to enjoy this red wine if it makes me barf on myself. I planned for it. I waited for it. I'm not going to let bile up to my tonsiles keep me from drinking it. Dammit. Today I saw the highest LDL number I have ever seen in my life. I didn't know it was possible...its not me, don't worry. I was like, what does a person have to do to get a number that high and a ratio that was so far scewed I think it broke the universe. People, get your numbers checked. And don't eat bacon. just don't.

Heartburn sucks! Hope it goes away so you can enjoy the wine
Love your diary! And most importantly, congrats on the lack of camel toe

Hi!
Was just perusing your diary...very amusing! I am in pretty much the same situation as yourself. I am 5'1 and weigh 244 lbs. I didn't realise QUITE how fat I had gotten until I got on a plane a few months ago and almost was not able to buckle the belt! I have a flight in late march, so I am terrified of having gained weight and having to ask for a belt extension! I'll sub to your diary, and good luck!

Congratulations on banishing the dreaded toe. Enjoy your wine--I love a glass of white after a shitty day. Or a bottle. Or two..
Hope work isn't too stressful next week x

I. Am. Back.
I've been so busy. I have no personal life between my job and the agenda of my nine year old. But, soccer season is over, flu season is over (for the most part), and I don't have any travel required for my job until the end of April.
I've been maintaining at a beefy 236 lbs since I got home from Tucson about a month ago. I've quit drinking beer, which was an everyday thing and I've not lost a single pound from the change. I'm ready to devote myself to a plan for the next month. See where it gets me. And hopefully reintigrate beer back into my life. I miss it a lot. My hand feels empty when I'm watching basketball. And its March madness, it has been hell.
Anyways, thats my update, more from me later.

Today has been pretty okay. I've had an extraordinary amount of fruity things though. For breakfast I had grape fruit, then I had some juice, then it was office smoothie hour because we bought a new blender and HAD to try it out. Then a sandwich on that round thin bread that's all the craze now with the kids. Those crazy kids. Now I'm enjoying a diet coke, the nectar of the Gawds.
I went to the gas station to fill up my truck, and after seeing that gas is now $4.06 a gallon I decided to break out the ol' mountain bike, grease 'er up and give her a go for the rest of the week. This is my plan. Of course, mother nature may not comply, last Saturday we had 115 mile and hour winds which, to me is not bike riding weather. Hell, it isn't even standing up weather.
Already, between yesterday's post and today's post my travel schedule has heated up. I'm now committed to at least two business related trips between now and May 10th, but one of them is a "retreat" which is what my boss calls putting us up in a fancy hotel and then making us work for 48 hours straight on numbers in a stuffy conference room with catered coffee and pastries as sustenance. Boo!
Well, thats all for now. Toodles!
