Aim's "still trying to get to 125" daily journal.

aim in Fla*working · 01-30-2007, 09:56 AM

well...I am not going to make my goal of 125 by 1/31/07 as i am 129 and PMS-ing....
so...lets try again. The good news is that i only ate off plan ONE DAY this entire month....I am proud of that...

My body "feels" thinner and looks thinner...but the number does not jibe with all that....

well ...i will decide to continue on....and not limit myself with a date....but in my mind...I am looking for 125 by valentines day....

aim in Fla*working · 02-01-2007, 05:47 AM

I am 131 today (WTH!)and I had no dinner. I did decrease my thyroid meds a 1/2 grain so maybe that is slowing me down...I don;t think so..I really think It is PMS....I look thin except for the PMS pot belly...I did NOT have that 4 days ago!
Yesterday I ate some nuts, Chicken salad, and had 4 cups of coffee through out the day....I went to bed feeling a tad huingry but I was too tired to eat.
Today :
I had breakfast today! I had 1 fried egg in coconut oil, 1 piece of bacon and 1/2 a peice of low carb toast.
Lunch I have a salad and for a snack I have a handful of nuts. My rings are very tight and I should be starting my TOM any time now...This is the "slow" ovary that always gives me PMS!
2/1/07-131

Hey GoRgEoUs..

Hope you don't mind me coming in here.

Have you thought of incorporating a free meal in your plan? I've a free meal once a week, and I'm still losing and feeling GREAT.

Knowing I can have whatever I want, that I'm not far away from having it keeps me motivated to stay the course without the cravings/binges.

I was stuck in a ugly starve/deprive/binge/rinsenrespeat5,000 times cycle. I would eat strictly, then upon "blowing it" I'd eat anything and everything I could that was "forbidden" since I wouldn't have these until my next cave in and binge.

Now food carries no personal baggage - It doesn't hold the same power over me anymore. No obsessing, no cravings, no saying food is "good" or "bad".

Just some food for thought for ya.

It was a real leap of faith to incoprorate this in, trusting Jackie that it WOULD work. Though I'm so glad I took the plunge, and I didn't bellyflop afterall.

Catch ya Later Pretty Lady...

Ah....Suna

Thank you soooo much for popping in! You are welcome in my journal WHENEVER YOU WANT!!!!!!!!! any and all advice is appreciated!!!
You are great!
I used to do a weekly Sat what ever i want meal....But then it turned in to what ever I want "day"....then a couple of days and so on.. I think i would do good haveing a blow meal one day a month maybe....and sugar free treats on weekends because of my carb addictions

Tell me how and what you are eatrng...and what kinda blow mean do you have/ Is it more like a Bill Phillip's "Body for life" approach?

Ohhhh I could have SO written this.

Though I would add on to your statement:

a couple days and... then a week... a couple weeks... a month... Try to hop back on, unable to make it through the day without caving.

Uhmmmm, yeah - not only do I understand it, I earned the too tight t-shirt to prove it. LOL

I eat five times a day (Working professionally with Jackie, so I can't discuss my eats), one mandatory free meal a week. I'm not familiar with the BFL approach, although my free meal can replace any one meal of the day, just watch portions (like don't eat three slices of pizza...LOL). My last two free meals have been a burger, fries, and an iced brownie.

Seriously, I was out of CONTROL and am able to use this as a tool to lassoe back in that control and enjoy a meal out with my guys once a week too.

that is awesome Suna

And it has not impeded your loss???

My eats are calculated out so I'll lose 1 to 1.5 pounds a week.

I did the "let'shurryupandloseitALLthisweek" plan for years, now I want to enjoy the slow ride instead...

And no, I'm still losing fine

Week one: 3.5 lbs
Week two: 1 lb and a half inch off my waist
Week Three: tomorrow's my official weigh in day, though as of this morning, I've lost 1.4 lbs for the week

My goals are health related instead of weight related. A slow approach will help me learn how to EAT without STARVING then BINGING. SO far so good!

aim in Fla*working · 02-07-2007, 05:49 AM

well, today was 131 again....I feel so much thinner!!!! But, whatever...My throat is KILLING me again...Feels like strep and I have big time burning in my ears....I will take allegra again....this suck!
I am at work until 9 o'clock for conference night. i feel like shitt!

aim in Fla*working · 02-12-2007, 09:41 AM

Purrgirl · 02-12-2007, 02:44 PM

Hey Aim. I'm still around and rooting for you! I haven't been doing to well which is why I haven't posted. I need to get a get back control though. My time in Florida and the superbowl did me in.

I hope you don't have strep and are feeling better!

aim in Fla*working · 02-15-2007, 10:01 AM

Okay...I have decided to have a mini challenge for myself that will end on Sunday.
I am challenging myself to go to as close to zero carbs for Thursday Friday and Sat.
Sunday i will weigh myself and see if i lost. I am needed to get into ketosis...ASAP>
I will say that I am 132 at the beinning

aim in Fla*working · 02-19-2007, 11:00 AM

okay...so I went out and got totally BLASTED sat. night and USUALLY i would go to Taco Hell...I did not...I went to brekafast and ate 2 eggs 3 sausage 3 bacon ....no wheat or rye toast...Nothing!
Well...and all i ate all day THAT day was 3 piece of thin cheddar and 2 handful of nuts.
well, that Sunday morning...I was 132.5

I "felt" like i would be 128!
Flat belly and the whole nine! I will weigh tomorrow and see how i do.

aim in Fla*working · 02-19-2007, 11:01 AM

P.s. I STUCK TO THE M/E challenge....
BUT..I boozed up on 5 beers and 2 shots

the shots I KNOW had sugar

aim in Fla*working · 02-21-2007, 05:47 AM

okay...AGAIN I was 131.5 this morning after a water pill which I am not pleased about taking!!!
6.5 pounds seems like 100~

last night I had a slice of vidalia onion and a few pieces of spinach.
Today....
Breakfast-3 scrambled eggs and 2 pieces of thin deli american cheese
Lunch Spinach salad with onion tomato and bacon with a hot bacon dressing. (low car ketchup was used in this recipe) I hope i don't bloat up. IT is low sodium bacon but i honestly think the potassium in the spinach bloats me...

aim in Fla*working · 02-22-2007, 05:52 AM

okay!! I ate TOTALLY on plan yesterday but I am definately having a hard time with water retention. I had hot wings last night @ of them with hot sauce and i was up a 1/2 pound to 132. I love to be 128 but wated 125 for a cushion...125-128. I am getting frustrated. I know it would be TOM coming also in 1 week but WHATEVER...i was 127 right before tom in the past! i am getting pissed.

Today:
Breakfast- 2 scrambled eggs and 2 sliced of american cheese
lunch -salad with onion, olives, artichoke and tomoatos and bacon with oil and vinegar dressing self made dressing.
snakc...3-4 wings with NO SAUCE...just meat!!
