way to go Deb

Gracie514 · 01-25-2012, 11:18 AM

Great attitude Deb!!!! What is your goal number? I've been thinking long and hard about it. I'm 5'-7" and I look really thin in the 170's and can't remember being the 160's.

Thanks Gracie, I am 5'8" and when I felt like I was at goal, I was 160. However, I still had some fat on me... my back doctor says I am a small frame.. and that is hard to believe, but maybe I am...

So I will aim for 160 and then see if I can go lower. With exercise, I don't care about the number, but I do want to be firm. WE SHALL SEE!! I'm doing it though.

shari · 01-26-2012, 03:41 AM

Morning Deb!

It's hard to determine what 'number' is goal number since it's been so long since I've been there too. Prior to two years ago, I hadn't been in the 150's since High School! Of course, the body has changed so how I looked then was different than now.

You've got height on your side too.

lorettahd · 01-26-2012, 03:47 AM

Morning Deb, how's it going today.......

Morning Shari! I agree, the height helps, but I have no real idea what the number should be. I guess time will tell!!!..

Morning Loretta! Today so far is ok.. I called Mom again, to make sure she is ok, and she is doing better. Time time time... is what she needs. ME TOO!.. I am on plan though, and that is a great start!!!! I WILL NOT BE DEFEATED by myself. I AM IN CHARGE..

It's going well actually. nothing different except no veggies. i can live without, but... I do miss the "complete balance" feeling of eating meat + veggies. The fat and protein is keeping satisfied though and my cravings are now gone. I'll probably do this for the rest of my life w/little treats here in there in moderation AFTER I reach goal. I have to stay away from trigger foods or else I'll be back to square #1

Gracie514 · 01-26-2012, 06:39 AM

Hi Deb! Great job staying on plan

My first goal is to get back to 185 lbs. - I feel pretty good there. I will reevaluate from there - don't want to put too much pressure on myself!

I think I would feel good at 175 cuz I am almost at 185 and I don't feel well YET. I am much shorter than you tho.

MagieDen · 01-26-2012, 07:53 AM

Hey Deb! Whatever it takes Deb, whatever it takes! You can do it! It ours for the taking, we have to just stay the course, stay the course and push forward, shrug of yesterday and plan tomorrow!

We Can Do It!!!! Needed that little cheer!

Deb294evr · 01-26-2012, 07:54 AM

This is where I think our frame size is coming in and the amount of muscle we have. When I was 175 I felt like a big flabby oinker! I swear, that number will not work for me. UNLESS!!! I build more muscle!!!

Right now, I am starting to believe my doctor and I do have a small to med frame. That would explain why you all can look great at 175 and I look like a cow...

Even with extra height, I am too fat at 175. hummm

Great point....I am rededicating to myself to more exercise, specifically, heavy weights!!!!

I guess I'll have to learn to not go by what the scale says (AGAIN!

)...Lately, I've been addicted to that thing. Ok, not lately, I always am addicted to it. But if I am lifting weights I will have to learn to let the scale # bite the dust!!!

That is what I have to do also. I need a GYM.. seriously I need to just join. I was using the gym my BRO in law worked at, but he has moved on to another place now. That was very convenient, so I may try that again. ANYWAY.. I do need to build muscle, I would hate to be flabby skinny..

Who am I kidding, I will never be skinny anything...

YES, I will reach a good goal weight, but I will never be skinny. Never have, don't see how I ever will. Don't even want to...

Completely agree Meek, I will be eating this way for life... I am not skeered. I found a good recipe for making my own chocolate bar that is sugar free, so no sugar alcohols and I can have my low carb chocolate! I made it last night and this will definately work for the rest of my life!!!!!

Unsweetened choc cube for baking -- 4 net carbs
butter
cream 1 net carb
liquid splenda or other sweetner- 0 carbs.

Melt the chocolate piece with some butter in the micro. stir it up. Mix in some HWC. It does not take much. Add sweetner to taste. Put in freezer on parchment paper and YUMMMY chocolate bar for around 5 net carbs and that is a BIG BAR.

Thank you Shari!! This seems to be directly correlated. When Mom feels better, I do too. My only worry is with her. I know Dad is at peace, but Mom was left with quite a mess he did not have time to clean up... we are helping her though, she is NOT alone..

shari · 01-26-2012, 09:21 AM

With you all there, I'm sure she knows this.

Is your son still staying with her?

obraxton · 01-26-2012, 09:27 AM

Your love and care will carry her through!!

Unfortunately he had to return to Colorado because he could not find a suitable job in St Louis. She is alone right now. So difficult for her. My sister who lives in St Louis, visits her a couple times a week, but Mom does not drive, and has very bad vision. She relied on Dad for everything.

My son will return to stay with her when his current season ends in April. Then he will look for a full time job and stay for the summer.
