Day 4 - Cranky

Today I feel cranky. There is no other word for it. It is not because of the detox because I think I'm getting the hang of that, but I think my period is about to start. If it does, that would also mean that I will have a bad weigh-in because never fail when I am on my period I gain weight.

I'm not very happy about that but then I wouldn't be happy about much because you got it, I'm CRANKY. Nothing can go right today. You can ask mr. ralph, he will verify that for you.

I didn't walk yesterday, but I managed to go for a walk tonight for about 30 minutes.

The thing with this detox is because I am not allowed to eat too many things I wind up eating under my points allotment for the day. I could actually be eating less than I should so I've got to try to shop for more things that I can eat throughout the day to reach my points value. I don't want my body to think I am starving it and hold on to this weight even harder.

Here's a thought I had this morning: When you lose weight, where does it go?

Hey, I randomly stumbled to your blog and started reading it. As I was reading, I was thinking how proud and excited you must be. The whole process of it -- setting a goal, focusing on the goal and actually following though to make it happen, that requires a lot of discipline and character. And then, to see your hard work pay off and to see such an accomplishment. WOW!

I've never had to struggle with what you are going through, but I've struggled with other things, and it's hard. Your determination to follow through and make your goals come true inspire me.

all our lost poundage goes to a safe place in the sky and is recycled to growing babies/children. haha! j/k...it's simply metabolized and used for our body's energy.

I bought the Madison magazine yesterday and was really interested in the 21 day detox.

Can't wait to keep reading how you're going on it. I can then decide if it's something I can do or not (no alcohol...hmmm!).

Keep up the great work.

A trip down memory lane

Hello to all of you all of you coming via Michele , thanks for stopping by and I only hope it was worth the trip over. I began reading through the questions on the Slimmer of The Year application today. Of course there are so many things I want to include, but I can't possibly write everything I want to or they will be getting a novel. When I started thinking of how long I have been overweight and the reasons I struggled for so long with food and weight issues a lot of memories came back to me. I've been challanged by my weight for most of my life. Granted some of that time I only thought I was fat when I really wasn't. The point is that I have been fat inside my head for as long as I can remember. One of the most shameful and embarrassing moments was when I was 15 and some of the boys in my class thought it was funny to sing "thunder, thunder, thunder thighs hooooooo!" when they saw me coming to the tune of the cartoon "Thunder Cats." That experie...

Life happens

I wish I could tell you guys that everything is on track and that the reason I have not been writing is because life has just been too good. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Winter is generally a crap time of year for me. I thought that this one I could get a handle on it and not have it get the best of me. I was wrong. Exercise? Who me? Eat healthy? Um no. Last night I wanted chips so mr. ralph went out at midnight and got us chips and dip and we sat in our pj's watching the England and Portugal quarter final stuffing our faces. Am I painting a pretty picture? For the most part I eat well. I do. I do not stock my house with these kinds of foods. I have learned that because I am an emotional eater, it is better if I don't. But mr. ralph is too easy. Where I won't go out and buy something at midnight, if I ask him too he will go for me. Yes, I do believe we are in a co-dependent relationship, even where food is concerned. We both eat when we feel emotional....

Unbelievable results

You may have noticed that I changed the 70 to the left to 71. I don't know how it happened, but I actually gained weight this week. What is happening to me? I don't know what is going on, but the scale did say 71 two days in a row. Yes, I am at the end of my TOM and that could contribute to some of it, but a whole kilo? I looked at my calorie count from this week and I went over 1500 only 2 days, Friday and Saturday. Although I did much better this weekend than last, I still struggled with eating more on my off days than during the week. Another reason I had a horrific week was the heat. We had 4 days of over 40C in a row. Now that is just wrong. I can't handle heat very well. I did go for a walk on Saturday and when I came home thought I was going to die from heat exhaustion. Not good at all. I almost declared this week a no-weigh week due to my TOM but have decided to take it as it comes. So I weigh 71 today. Excuse my language but that number really scares the ...
