I must say that you should definitely test, and test again, and test one more time. I think I told you this before but I didnt know I was preggo with my daughter until i felt her move! at first I kept calling the movements gas bubbles..until it clicked! I took a few bad home tests and just thought oh well it must be my diet... i wondered for a few months why my stomach wouldnt flatten out, and I even had to have a bridesmaid dress altered becuae of the gut!! I really shouldve known....

OK..really gotta go now!! BBL

Becky; I ditto Al; sans the cream for results... and the nuts. I tossed out a jar of peanuts that was sabotoging me. I didn't miss them! I hate to waste food but even worse is damaging myself with it!

AL: Congrats on that 10 lbs. You really deserve it, having gotten back in the saddle!

I am at 146.4 today. My goal is 140 so that I can vascillate between 140 and 145... in case of social occassions or that rare "got to have it" moment. Which is extremely rare these days. I am thankful for the loss. I was 149 this time last week, and gained five lbs at the retreat. So I am very thankful for the progress.

Seems like the woosh fairy is busy on this board. Keep up the great work and don't get discouraged. I stayed in one place all of November before I began losing again. But I stuck with Stillmans thanks to this board. November seems so far away now!!

I wonder what the deal is with the big loses in March ... is the moon in the right place for us or what?

Mar922 · 03-03-2011, 09:00 AM

day 2: No extra loss still at 2 overall although it is my TOM so I am thinking that may have something to do with it?

Won't make a habit of it though, but nice to know.

Just a quick drive by:

Motivation
Look on the Bright Side
For every negative that consumes your happiness,
Affirm two positives that sustain you.
For every "should’ve" you wish you’d done,
Acknowledge something you’re glad you did.
For every loss that has altered your world,
Count from it something you have gained.
For every limit that has ever beset you,
Consider your possibilities.
You can’t always change the way things are,
But you can change the way you wish to see them.
Never stop looking
For the brighter side and beyond.

I am going to ask this as an actual question haha

Do you girls find you don't lose weight during your TOM or that the weight loss slows? or am I doing something wrong?

And now more questions!!!

Do you always drink all your water?

I know diet pop is bad but when I get a craving its what I go to in lieu of carbs, has anyone found that its holding them back to drink diet pop and crystal light?

Thanks for being patient with a newb like me

Getting there!!! · 03-03-2011, 10:32 AM

Yeah I think most people finds the weight stalls or goes up ever so slightly before TOM but then there's usually a whoosh afterwards! Think it's the same with any diet not just lc-it's just water retention. The most important thing is not to get discouraged and just wait it out!
I never drank the diet drinks during this-i'd be afraid they would give me sugar cravings! Eating blandy chick and tuna is the best way to go for me! Diet Coke has aspartamine and from reading the threads a lot of people say that is stalls them.

Mar922 · 03-03-2011, 10:40 AM

You have a fantastic loss BTW, you are my new Hero

Mar922 · 03-03-2011, 10:43 AM

I started drinking aspartame free protein powder in my coffee in the morning instead of cream and sugar... I thought I'd share if there were any fellow coffee addicts out there, I managed to cut myself back to one cup a day but I need that cup to make it to work haha

Protein powder in coffee? That does not sound good!! I don't really drink coffee-but tea-I could drink it all day!! I do put a tiny bit of skimmed milk in it-(we always put milk in tea) -I know Still says no-but he would have to guarantee me a drop of 2 dress sizes a day for me to give that up!

Getting there!!! · 03-03-2011, 11:22 AM

Actually just finishing a cuppa now!

bigbassplayer · 03-03-2011, 11:35 AM

Hello ladies. It's been a while. It's good to see yall here working the plan. Just thought I would drop in and say hi. GT, OMG you are withering away to nothing. GT, IM, al, CC, makeme and others, yall are addicting. While I was gone, I thought about yall a lot and wondered how yall were doing.

I thought I would give it a try and the coffee covers the powdery taste so its all good.

I should start drinking tea again because I drink it black

Hello there... I am going to change my avitar to the 70 lb club, from the 60 lb club! As of this morning, that is how much I have lost since August 2nd.

1 oz cheese
3 HB eggs
2 diet pepsi's (does not stall me, just kills my neurons)

Have been exhausted lately, not sure why. Have been taking my supplements. I think it is because I am confused as to what to do with my career next...

rebeccadeel · 03-03-2011, 06:36 PM

well well...started with a small slip up of 2 beers last night and it's been down hill since. weighed the same when i woke up this morning but ive been eating poop all day so hopefully it doesnt go up

getting back on it hardcore starting...now!

ontopofmygame · 03-03-2011, 07:09 PM

Rebecca; You can do this... it was just a small slip, I understand poop has no carbohydrates... lOl...

Put it behind you Rebecca!!

Good you weighed the same. Now eat clean and stay off the scale for a couple of days-then there'll be a nice surprise waiting for you!

nowhere on thier website do they give the fat ratio for the beef, only that it's 100% pure beef. Some searching on the web drew this as the main conclusion but the true ratio still remains a mystery.

McDonald's uses ground chuck. This is the exact fat to lean ratio. Ground chuck is 80% lean.

Thanks Al...what is chuck? Is it rump?

Oh wow, we could have a little GT...or even two...you never know.
