mac--
Very good.
I've put the more tempting nibbles inconveniently up high. Wasabi peas, anyone?
yes. i'll take anything! just NOT another orange.
am on a day 3 of the low carb diet (painless except for cravings. they go away after a few days), and also of a miserable flu which helps with apetite curbing. we'll see if i can last a whole month. should result in some 10-15 pounds down...though i don't step on the scale. clothes will tell i suppose.
I'm starting this year 4 lbs higher than last year. Not exactly what I had in mind, but it could have been worse.
I went to the chiro last week and felt, for the first time since August, that I didn't need to be there that day. We've agreed to stretch out my treatments to three weeks and see how it goes. I've restarted an exercise plan and I need to do some grocery shopping to stock up on salad fixings and lean proteins.
Here we go again....
Not a lb gained over Christmas, can't think why! But back to the soup-only-every-evening diet which REALLY works for me.
This year I'm starting at 128 pounds. There is a little more aggro in my atmosphere than at this time last year. There are also more holiday sweets in the house, indicating that I'm gaining in will power/common sense.
The weather is not friendly for one-legged, weight-bearing exercise.
There are 30 more days in the first half of winter. By February 2, 2006, I'd like to be down to 125 pounds.
I'm not stepping on a scale till Thursday.
And I know I'm not gonna be happy.
my scale ran away
long ago
One can only guess why...
I woke up sniffly and snurgly on Friday. It went downhill from there. I decided on a diet of citrus and soup until my cold breaks. I'm down 4.5 lbs
We have 2 sets of scales at home, on one Im 12 stone, on the other Im 13stone!!!!!
I weighed myself on proper scales before christmas and im 12stone 5lbs.
Ive not weighed myself since so Im assuming Im still fat, hooooorahhh!!!
i'm not stepping on a scale until the grey pants are loose again. my face is round like a baby butt. i feel like moby dick sailing through great waters of mitteleuropa. grrrrrrrr.
Ive noticed I feel thinner after I eat pastry.Ive taken to eating pastry type cakes!!
Is there any reason for this?

The Microbe-Mandated Diets always work for me, too. Of course when you're curled up on Death's Doormat, you don't get much exercise.

I don't know how much you spent on holiday giving, but it seem to me for 2006 you deserve an accurate scale. How are your clothes fitting? Clothes don't lie.
My weight this morning was 127. I'm still battling the rearguard of a Beastly Cold and the weather outside is not fit for a Dignified Woman to Stroll Along the Byways of Life.
By mid-winter (25 days) I'd like to weigh 122-123 pounds.
Hope Springing Eternal.
I had a happy split second as I pulled my trousers up after frequenting the little girls room and i felt like they were bigger, Im sure it was all in my mind.
Nothing else is bigger.I even noticed pyjama tops ive had for years are getting small, sob sob.
Ho hum, I think i will get some scales for myself.

Bad idea about the pastry.
Good idea about the scales.
Hold your dominion.

My feelings of sympathy are tempered by my feeling that your next post will report pushing your local glacier 6.7 cm (or some such number) up a local mountain into retreat.
Of course, you are bold and resolute without my feelings of sympathy.
haha. yep, that is so - but it don't seem healthy to alternate between pushing the glacier up the hill and then eating all of it in one sitting...

At least you just put whipped cream on the first fifty bites.
seriously though, i'm so undisciplined. why was i endowed with such monstrous apetite? luckily i surrounded myself with carrots and "muslikeks" - some bio/prodieta/diabetic wafer with virtually no nutritional value other than fiber. i survived a gluttony attack with these two items - ate a whole pack of baby carrots and i don't like carrots really. that's 250 grams of carrots - 1/2 pound? insane. perhaps still better than 1/2 pound of chocolate.
I read somewhere that you can get addicted to carrots. I'll try to find a source. Mr B once had a coworker who ate carrots all day long. They hardly ever saw him eat anything else.
Carrots are a nono on early phase low GI plans because the have so much sugar.
Ok, I'll shut up now
i know. still better than pure chocolate. i also guzzled a liter of diet coke.... dunno why on earth....i feel like a baloon. at least i kept it lo-cal.... ouch, my belly.
I go for diet coke when I need some scrape too. Not necessarily a liter at a time, but I've done that too. It always seems like a good idea at the time.
