Hey all...I'll post in a little bit... things are just crazy at work here today! Ugh... gotta love the internets... But I think I found the culprit! View attachment 2126

Anywho...whenever I actually get a moment, I'll post this mornings progress!
 
LOL @ that pic! But for real...I think that may be the problem with mine at home. Definitely gonna look into this!!! Its good to have friends in IT! :p :p :p
 
Okay..here goes...

So this morning started out great. My workout went WONDERFUL... got up normal time, worked out for 30 minutes. Upper body strength work out. It was great...really felt a burn and broke a really good sweat! Hopped on the scale and whaddya know? I've lost yet another half a pound! I'm not changing my ticker just yet... will do that on a weekly basis! So I had my lunch all ready to go and was ready for the day!

I get to work and can already tell it's gonna be the day from hell! We installed a new firewall at work and it threw EVERYTHING out of whack...I'm STILL fixing issues because of it's installation... (why some people are in leadership...is beyond me. Guess it's just who ya know!) Lunch time rolls around and guess what? One of our partners decides to bring Olive Garden to the office! ARGH!!!!! Now... M2M&K says that I should have a little... because I deserve it for doing so well... I have my salad that I brought with me... so I can make sure I only eat a little bit... And boy... I didn't need a salad to make me only eat a little bit! It. Was. HORRIBLE! I mean...the food tasted alright... but the lasagna was So greasy, it coated my lips... I mean..full on philly cheesestake grease lipgloss kickin here! Terrible. Then I had a few noodles... stress on the few! And then I go and see that the breadsticks are 140 cals for just ONE! It's like walking into a crime scene from a maniacal serial killer... just all sorts of wrong! It attacked my senses..and NOT in the good way! I threw out the rest of it (only had a few bites of each) and my body is still physically trying to "return to sender". It just doesn't appreciate foods like that anymore...and frankly, I'm glad. I feel like I"m gonna gain 2 to 3 lbs (there was a chocolate mousse cheesecake that..well... yeah, that's like telling me that someones giving me 50000 dollars for eating it.... it's just not gonna be resisted! Besides...it was a "treat" for me) Incredibly rich! good but...just not my style. I needed like 30 or 40 oz of water just too get the taste of out my mouth..and now I just feel like poop! I don't even want to eat dinner tonight...blech. what's a guy to do eh? I'm just feeling sick to my stomach... really am! Gonna wrap christmas presents tonight...and maybe get some gazelling in too! Sorry I haven't been to any diaries today...I'll try tonight or tomorrow...
 
Sorry lunch didn't sit with you. I've noticed that about my eating too - uber greasy/rich stuff just doesn't cooperate with my body anymore. It's a little sad to me, food has been such a figure in my life up to this point BUT I'm kind of glad that my body has put all that on the reject list. Makes it harder to go back to that place called 'before'.

Feel Better!! :D:D:D

Thanks Pequin.... I just got home...it's 10:45 and I just can't look at any diarys tonight... I'm drained. I feel like a Mack truck hit me and I just can't keep my eyes open. I didn't eat dinner tonight. I need to go to bed ASAP so I can get up in time for my morning workout! I'll do my darndest to get caught up with everyone in the morning...
 
Hi!

Hope you're surviving work at the moment! Do you have any time off over Christmas?

The greasy food thing - isn't it amazing to suddenly realise you can feel the grease coating your mouth, when before you would have never noticed it. And just how many calories can a small food item hold? I bought a muffin for breakfast today, and realised it had over 500 calories!!!
 
oh yeah baking is the worst. Ive had to abstain from cakes bikkies muffins etc since i started.
Its just got WAY to many calories :/
 
I can totally relate to the feeling of grease coating your mouth---before I started my diet I could feel the McDonald's grease coating my throat---and ugh it would last for hours (unless of course I drank soda which effectively cleans off the pipes) ick.

Thanks man..yeah...Today seems to be moving TONS better than yesterday. And I'm feeling tons better too! I stopped counting my cals after I had the Olive Garden yesterday...after I saw that the lasagna itself was 880 cals :eek:

McDonalds burgers don't do much for me anymore... I still love chicken nuggets from wendys...but that's about it! I haven't had a burger in a good while. Red Meat really just hasn't done anything for me lately...though a burger does sound kinda good now that I'm talking about it. Lean ground beef though.... Salad and steak chili today for lunch..YUM
 
So.. we got to bed WAY too late last night (strange seeing myself type that sentence...I went to bed at 10:30. that used to be "early" for me. Anyway, I still got up at normal time..determined to work off some of yesterday... I was DEAD tired though.... did a half hour of core body strengthening which was awesome. Felt really good to be honest. Really felt the burn! Went to shower and... I hoped on the scale and...well... I'm not supposed to weigh in until Sunday/Monday...but I was curious as to what I put on... I don't want to post it until then cause it may be more but...I've lost another pound!!!! :eek: :eek: :D :D So...I'm at 225.5!!!!!! I'm not changing my ticker until my *Official* weigh in...but that just excites me! I'm half a pound away from the halfway point!!!! I'm amazed!!! MTM&K made a very good point...she thinks I've found the "sweet spot" for my calorie intake on a day to day basis! I'm excited about that! Because this week alone I've lost 3 lbs already!

Anyway, it's time for lunch and it's salad and beef chili (it's SO good and healthy to boot!) I'll check in later!
 
Thanks gals! It felt so good when... As I was telling MTM&K how I was scared I'd end up back the old way...she said that I've made such a drastic change...and determination...that she doesn't think I'd ever go back to the old me.... which made me realize just how much of an impression I've made... that makes me smile!
