Worth the Weight

[Potaty]

Thanks, Gracie. I tried harder today but I still didn't come even close to all of my food.

Today's food: coffee with cream, tilapia, asparagus, egg drop soup (2 c. chicken broth, one whole egg, 2 whites), 2 grissini. I don't have any fruit right now, didn't get to go to the store like I thought. I did manage to drink more water today than I have been.

[Potaty]

I am really hungry right now but I'm in bed posting from my phone so there's no way I'm getting up. Safe to say my appetite is back, I'll be sure to go to the store tomorrow.

On another note, my mom just finished her first round and lost 18 lbs!

[Potaty]

191.8, down 7.2 from last round's ldw and I am NOT screwing it up this weekend! So excited to see the 180s again!

[Gracie514]

Nice job to both you and your mom!!!! A new decade is always so exciting

[Samantha42]

Yeah Katy!!! You're doing great!

I ended up off plan the past 2 days when on call. BOO. Up 3 pounds to 183.6. I NEED TO SEE THE 170s. It's killing me!

[Potaty]

Sam~I don't know how you do it when you're on call. Can't imagine!

I was 190.8 this morning so the 180s are still eluding me!!! I am hoping for it tomorrow! I still have not been eating all of my food. Isn't that strange?

[Samantha42]

Go Katy! Doesn't being so close make you work extra hard? I'm peeved about my 3 pounds gain, but I think today I'm 182ish... so I know if I worked hard I can see the 170s in the next few days. JUST HAVE TO WORK HARD.

[Potaty]

We can do it, girl! As long as I can stay out of the Halloween candy I had better see the 180s tomorrow,I was 190.2 this morning.

[Potaty]

Ugh, ugh, ugh! Another day of 190.2! This was either a big previous setpoint for me or it's due to the fact that Berniece hasn't visited in almost a week. I did not eat one morsel of Halloween goodness yesterday so surely I will be rewarded for that??

[sassy_red]

OMG you're doing FANTASTIC!!!!! Look at you go!! Don't worry, you'll be rewarded, but SO CLOSE!! Believe me, I understand any frustration there!

[Potaty]

Finally! A number I don't think I've seen since 2004! I am so excited and to think that I'm only a week into this round! Wahoo!!!!! 188.2, down a little over 30 lbs total now!

[Potaty]

Comfortably wearing a size 14 pair of jeans I haven't been able to get in for years! What an awesome feeling!!!! No camel toe, either, LOL!

[Potaty]

Today was a hungry day. I think it's also the first time since re-starting that I have eaten all of my food. I just ate my last apple and I can still feel the burn of hunger so I think I'll drink a big glass of water and go to bed.

Where is everybody? I'm gettin' lonely The other journals I follow seem to have been abandoned lately.....I hope everyone is doing okay and the worst of the news is that they fell off the wagon!

[Potaty]

187.2

[Meek75]

Hi Katy, stopping by to wish you well this round. 187.2 is great! Keep up the good work.

[obraxton]

Hey, Katy!!! Have a great round!!! We're supporting you all the way!!

[Potaty]

Hi Meek and Dessa! Thanks for stopping by and give your little men smoochies!

Today was another hungry day. I keep forgetting to take my second dose so it's my fault, I don't remember until I've left the house. I have one more apple to eat and I'm saving it for a bedtime snack.

[Samantha42]

Congrats Katy!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah 180's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


(PS I think you and I are the same weight now! I'm up like... 5 pounds, I'm gross, FYI from eating carbs. There goes my 170s!) :blush:

[Potaty]

Thanks, Sam! And you can still see the 170s soon, just get your head back in the game! You can do this!

Today was a bitty loss of .2, so 187.0, down a total of 32 since starting at the end of July!

[AsmallerME]

Go Katy, go! Thanks for sharing your journey.

[obraxton]

Great job, Katy! I see you're hanging in there despite the hunger, I forgot my drops this morning, too. Have to run home at lunchtime lol

[Potaty]

Just letting everyone know (esp. those who PM'd me today) that my husband's grandpa very unexpectedly died this afternoon (ruptured aneurysm) so I will be MIA for a few days probably. Will likely just post weights until the funeral is over (thinking Monday). Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

[Meek75]

Oh my, Katy. I'm so sorry to hear this.... My prayers are with you and your family. Be encouraged.

[Potaty]

Thanks, Meek.

186.8, a bit frustrated at that since it was only .2 and I opted to not eat at all vs. Eating pizza at Grandma's last night.

[Gracie514]

My condolences to your family.

Be glad you didn't eat the pizza - it's so not worth it!!!

[obraxton]

Praying for your family. I"m sorry for your loss, thankful that you were blessed to have your grandpa in law for the time that you have had.

[Gracie514]

Hi Katy!!! Just thinking about you, hope you come back

[Samantha42]

I hope you come back too! You're the only thread I'm following on LCF, so when I see I have no subscription updates I just leave!

How is everything going with you and your fam? Hope all is well, and thinking of you!

You could always subscribe to my journal!!! There's lots of nice people and good information

[Potaty]

Hey Gracie and Sam! I am (barely) here but things are so crazy right now! We have had so much family stuff going on with out of town relatives here for the funeral and then me, my mom, and my sis are all crafters and we are having our big Christmas open house tomorrow and Saturday so I've been trying to finish all of my items and get my signage made. I am ready for this week to be OVER!!!

I have not been on plan since last Friday. I've been eating like complete crap and I feel terrible. I am going to start my hcg again tomorrow and push through until Thanksgiving. I am guessing I'm up 8 lbs or so from my low. TOM also visited yesterday so I am bloat city.
