I did nothing different yesterday that I can think of stuck to protocol didn't cheat but did have beef for the first time in awhile instead of chicken or seafood.  My period is still happening and it is really heavy so I feel that may be why there is no loss showing.  Hopefully it will all even out in the end.  

waxing poetic....

I looked in the mirror tonight and there she was, the skinny girl looking back at me.  I know I am no where near ready to meet her but there is was looking at me.....one day, one day!

My period actually started yesterday, I don't know how long it will take to level out but I hope it happens soon.  We went to the beach, the rest of the family snacked on twizzlers and pringles but I stayed strong.  Actually I did make my day kind of screwy, I was going to try to do an apple day but it turns out on the beach in the heat is NOT the time to do that.  So I had two apples for my fruit and I had them both at relatively similar times but it was two hours apart.  Then I had a grilled chicken salad for lunch and shrimp and asparagus for dinner.  

We ended up getting house guests at midnight which is going to kill me today because we were up until 2am talking.  (my step son's came by because their mother, who they were SUPPOSED to stay with had to worry more about herself than where her boys would sleep and told them sorry I am out of here heading to my honeymoon.) But I digress, anyway, today would be a no shot day anyway but since my 'time' has started I will be taking a break until my 'time' is up.   

Off to have some coffee, I fear I will drinking a lot of that today, I NEVER in a hundred years would have imagined I would be drinking BLACK coffee!

stupid period

weight: 254.6
 UP 4.4

I knew the 5lbs yesterday were too good to be true.  I am still down from before the huge drop though and I feel I know what happened, my period.  I start today.  The literature I have read said to expect this but that it would level back out by the end of the "visit"....

we will see, I did also cave to soup in a cup noodles (of all things) last night and had a few noodles.  I am giving myself that as period weakness and getting back on track today.

The lit does also say to halt shots during the time of month, so since it hasn't completely started yet I will take today and break until it ends....this should be INTERESTING!

I feel like I am on the biggest loser only without al, the drama!

Weight 250.2
Down 5.1 (yes that's is right 5.1!)

Total down: 20 woo hoo

I am so excited. I still have about 25 days to go on this round, I don't need to lose 5 lbs every day but as long as I continue to lose at least 1 lb I am excited.

My menu was boring yesterday. I had shrimp salad for lunch, sautéed onions with chicken for dinner an apple for snack and I cheated a little and had a few slices of bacon for breakfast.

I am still feeling a little stopped up, I am going to down tons of coffee today.  Other than that I did pretty good yesterday.  I had shrimp salad for lunch and chicken and asparagus for dinner.  We had my inlaws all over to celebrate with the newlyweds and I stuck to my menu rather than eat the hamburgers, chips and cupcakes.  I wasn't even really tempted by the cupcakes which is a big bonus in my eyes.  My little boy has a birthday in July I am saving my cake eating for his party! I think it will be outside of the time I am supposed to avoid sugar anyway so I don't even think it will be cheating by then!
