Squeeze My Lemons

No, no, no, no....a thousand times no. I did not eat the entire tub... that would definitely induce vomiting. I ate just under a cup of the stuff. It was frozen so it was akin to a mix between marshmallows and ice cream. However, considering a serving is 3 tablespoons, I had was way too much. It nauseates me a little to think about it now. I swear I can feel the tumors from all that fake crap forming in my body already. LOL. The first time I ever bought the stuff was a month ago. I love it on jello a la cafeteria-style. I think this is the last time I buy it for a while. I abused the privilege so out it goes (when I finish what I've got).

I know that its not my weigh in day and that I said that I was cutting back to weighing only once a week, but today I jumped on the scale anyways. Guess what I am down to 158.4lbs! Not only have I lost the 1.6lbs I gained on the Portland trip, I have lost an additional 0.4lbs! Very, very excited. I think my weight might fluctuate a bit so I'm not banking at it remaining there. I don't want to get my hopes up. I think my Portland eating might have helped kick-start my metabolism a bit. We'll see. I think I'm going to up my calories just a bit to make sure I keep the metabolism going instead of plummeting from the calorie drop.
 
Love the 'tumors from coolwhip' line. It's precious. And I know what you mean. I can barely eat more than a cup of it either. It's so darn sweet. And like you, I swore if it's not good for me, as soon as I finish it, I'll not be buying it for a goodly while. That's why last night, I ate myself out of truffles....lol

That's so great to hear about your weight loss!! :hurray: I can imagine your excitment to realize it! Just you wait and see, you'll be taking more off by the end of the week...oh totally think so.
 
Today was officially my weigh in. 158.8. I know I said that I wasn't going to keep my hopes up that I'd stay down at 158.4, but we all know I secretly was. *sheepish grin* 158.8 (and yes the .8 counts!) ain't too shabby considering that I gained 1.6lbs AND lost 1.8lbs in the same week. I survived Portland! Okay, now, its tunnel vision onwards to my goal. No more distractions, no more diversions. 140's here we come. For anyone who adores the Three Amigos like I do: "Gonnnnna maaaake iiiit. Gonnnnna maaaake iiiit... Gonna make it, gonna make it."

So I am giving in to the haircut finally...good bye bank account! I have an appointment scheduled today with Miss Sheshepoopoo High-End-Stylist, who cut my hair last time. It better be good if I'm going to spend this kind of cash on it! How can a person who loves thrift and consignment stores spend so much on hair... I have nooo idea...

You know what though? A woman's hair is, quite frankly, one of her most attractive features I hear. We're alot more self concious about it then we are other features about ourselves. If I could afford it every once and a while, I'd get my hair colored more often, prolly with a redish tint. We just feel down right SEXY with great hair. Relish in your haircut, sweetie. It makes you feel good!!

.8 really isn't that bad. And you know what, with how well and fast you took the weight off from Portland, that decimal number looks like NOTHING at all. And you're right, you CAN do this and you WILL make it. Why? Cause you're worth it, and we're here to support you the whole way.
 
everyone has to indulge themselves occassionally -hair should be indulged - generally thebetter the cut, the longer it lasts so it works out in the end... enjoy the pampering... do a before and after pictures wise and weight wise too.. haircuts have to be good for at least a few ounces :D

Hahaha!!! That should take up the 0.8lbs a bit!!! I never thought of it...when I have a bad weight loss week, I should just cut my hair a bit more! Now that's a good excuse...I'm not fat, its my hair. LOL!!!
 
:waving:Hi Luscious!
Wow, you are ROCKIN' the scales, lady! I am jealous! Remind me again how long it has taken you to lose your weight so far? I cannot wait to be in the 1950s!

Keep up the great work,
ABBA
 
Aaarrrgg! Obviously I didn't get enough hair cut off...I didn't lose an ounce. You had my hopes up Mal! LOL. Anyways, I love the haircut and for some reason it was way cheaper this time. Same girl, so I must have got either over-charged last time or under-charged this time. It was a good surprise though.

I thought I'd post some before and afters like Mal suggested:

The first ones a before picture a la makeover show (you know, where they make the person as ugly as possible so that the after is more dramatic)

The second is the real before picture.

The third is the after.
 
Hey Abba,

What are you talking about....look how far you've come and you are almost in the 150's, too!!! Amazing work, girly! I started in September 2007. Its coming along but it is not always easy. Christmas was one heck of a setback! Thank goodness it only comes around once a year! Happy to see a fellow BC'er dropping into my diary.

P.S I enjoyed the "God, can he be a hobby?" in your public profile. It gave me an enjoyable little chuckle.
 
Very sexy chic!

I love the haircut!

I didn't lose a single ounce this week! Dang it!

And the weather is making running very difficult!

Ok, enough griping...

Happy Friday! :D
 
Diggin' the new 'do. It's way cute, and those glasses.. ROCK!

Looks like we are still pretty much neck and neck with weight stuff.. I was 159.0 yesterday and 158.4 today.. my lowest thus far. Keep up the awesome work!
 
Luscious, your hairstyle ROCKS OUT THE HOUSE!! I love it. You look so gorgeous there with your glasses and freckles!! You're just so cute!

Hope your Friday is going well, sweets!! Big Hugs!!
 
So today was been pretty wonderful. I had a very full and busy day. I had three beers (yes, three) and still managed to stay pretty well within my calories. Sure I wouldn't recommend a beer diet everyday but today it was exceptionally wonderful. AND I still managed to head out for my couch to 5K session. I got home from beer at 8:00pm and still went out for the run...even in the rain. Very proud of myself. I got past the rain AND the dark. WooHoo!!! I AM INVINSIBLE!!!

Here is an odd tidbit of my life I probably shouldn't share... I had to pee so bad on the bus. I struggled to make it home. I mean my bladder could not have survived any longer. So out of curiosity and despite my dire circumstances, I weighed myself before and after my "relief". Guess what... my bladder holds 1.8lbs of liquid! Isn't that unbelievable. I was always curious and now I know...I'm not sure how I feel about knowing, but now I know. Unbelievable. I don't know what is more unbelievable...that my bladder holds this much or that I am this pathetic to want to figure it out! LOL. I really need to get a life!

Happy Friday everyone. Thanks for the compliments on my new do... I'm glad you all approve. ;)

Photo, we definitely are on par...I'm glad I've been able to keep up with my alter ego! Good Job!
 
ahh you so dont get out much! try it with number 2s! they can be just as heavy if not heavier! :D
 
I think today is going to be one of those aggravating kind of days. I can feel it already. I want to eat...not just eat...stuff...gorge...eat my friggin' face off. I'm holding back and I'm not going to give in. I'm locking myself in my house and I'm going to get some work done. This is probably why I want to eat so much. As soon as I try to nail myself down and finish all the things I haven't, I want to avoid it by eating. Not going to happen...not going to let it. I'll probably have to go to bed early, before the really nasty munchies hit. Evenings are a bad time for me.

TV is completely annoying me. There is nothing good to watch or even have on in the background as I work on my stuff. I have come to believe that TV stations are chauvinistic. On weekend they fill the airwaves with sports and poker for the guys and not much for the girls. This way the guys can kick back and relax while the girls are forced to catch up on the week's housework out of sheer boredom. Yet, another conspiracy...
 
Time of Month? I know the feeling though - ive been that way for the last week and only starting to feel normalish recently :)
