How Long Can You Go???

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Congrats on a week today for us both Loana!! It feels good doesn't it?

Don't worry Sharon about the slow down, when I lost my weight before (what I put in my siggy) Trust me it wasn't consistent weight loss, one week I lost .5 lb. for 2 weeks of clean effort, but woke up after eating some horseradish finally and had a whooshie of 6 lbs. Its like that though, you won't lose nothing, its the fat cells holding on for dear life, and after they get too weak in hanging in there and seeing that you won't give them what they want: a cheat, then they flow out in the urine. Let me find some info to back that up for you in a few, I'll be back.

1pound - How is life in the dairy rung. Still losing? Feeling any different? We need details...[img]images/smilies/icon_lol.gif[/img]

It's going very well, thank you! I'm adding extra cheese and cream every day and I lost three pounds this week! That brings my total to 21 pounds since I started this WoE. Wow, huh?

Congrats on day four; you're doing great!

loana, way to go on one week! That's awesome!

You're all doing so wonderfully! Keep it up!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Today is 2 Weeks Cheat Free for me. I also lost another 2 pounds. I'm doing good at getting all my water in, but not so good at getting my calories up. It's hard to make myself eat when I'm not hungry and want to lose the weight so badly. It has been raining here all day, so also haven't done my walking yet. I may just have to ride my exercise bike if the rain doesn't let up.

Kansas is so lucky!!! I wish it was raining here. Does this means that a tornado may come because of the rain and it being summer?

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Maybe, you never know when a tornado will pop up around here. (Although I'd swear one went through my son's bedroom this morning!) Luckily we don't have any severe weather forecast.

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Yeah, that's a tell-tell sign here in California: Hot weather then rain, we call it earthquake weather. Your son sound like my kids, they never can get it right and I don't stress myself but once in a blue moon.

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Ok... another cheat free day (so far... lol).

It's been a busy hectic week... I can't wait until Saturday when things will be back to normal. Well, as normal as they ever are for me. My brother is on vacation and I've been staying at his house to take care of the dogs, and running back and forth to check on my own house. And working two jobs. It seems like I've barely had time to breathe this week.

Hope everybody is on track!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

I lived in Calif for 40 years and now live in Texas, so I have had earthquakes galore and a few tornado scares that were luckily nothing, I think I would take the earth quakes any day. They never scared me, but tornados do a bit, but not too bad.
Our son and his wife and kids live in Kansas too, they love it. We went out to visit them at Easter and it was so pretty and green, it is very nice !! I can see why they love it. He is in the army and is stationed there for at least a little while longer.
Day 15 cheat free for me, and counting !!! Back up again, I have not lost in over a week and have gone back up two pounds. I am working hard on being patient and trying to figure out what i am eating that is causing problems. The only thing I can figure is dairy, but I am not sure. I am being very good.
One day at a time and being patient.

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Owww geez Terry leggo my HAIR! Dang well losing enuff from dieting as it is (shakes herself off trying to maintain her cool) ok so? what did I miss? I'm all caught up on posts, and yes, still cheat free, sorry it took me so long to update but I was on the road and took a 2 day trip to Vegas to guest DJ at a friends club...was work...but was also a blast, gotta like those gigs! Happy to hear about everyones success.

Had a near cheat in Vegas, that stupid Aladdin buffet was calling but I resisted.

Tommy? Yeeees where is that boy? Think I'll go poke him and see if I can arouse some interest in coming back here to lead the straight life. "Oh Tommy? (she purrs) Come and sit beside me Tommy, we can talk about the intrigueing shapes of asparagus!"

Re: How Long Can You Go???

I'm glad to see that everyone is doing so well! I made it through another day. Had hot wings for dinner in hopes that they summons the whooshie fairy! My scale is not moving and may be going up? My eyes aren't good enough to see the lines on it. I may have to go get a digital one!

I exercised for the second day in a row. Took another walk and pushed my daughter in the stroller this time. (some resistance training ).

Keto-stix are pink and I am obsessed with them turning purple. That is when I get into trouble and start cutting out all the carbs totally which I know is bad.

1pound - I don't feel like I will ever be strong enough to move up even 1 rung at this point. I feel like I need those stix to be purple consistenly for a couple weeks and that hasn't happened yet.

Wishing everyone a Happy Friday Eve!!!!!

Hey, what can I put under my pillow for the Whooshie Fairy

ROFL I no longer use delicious veggies to describe...well..you know. Where have I been? Well I had a stint with Ben and Jerry they can be very persuasive. I have 3 days off them cuz I always overdo everything and I ate 2 pints in one sitting and then something worse happened which I dont want to say but it was dumb. So I am good for 3 days
Thanks too everyone who loves me and emailed me it means a lot Other than that I just moved too a way better place with A/C and its quiet so thats good if you like sleeping which I do. Finished working crazy hours and inventory and so my life is getting some what back to normal work wise. My right shoulder has issues and it has been getting worse I think its tendinitis and I have stopped working out with weights and only do cardio. So I am losing weight and I know its muscle too cuz I was working out for a solid year and packing it on. I told Ben and Jerry all about it lol. Right on good too see you all, hope everyone is doing well!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Kat – You’re beautiful! I have to admit, because of your avatar, I pictured you looking like Lucy. I know that sounds weird, but it’s true. It really does help to have a face with a name. Hmm, maybe I should post a pic too.

I’m still going strong. Just plugging along day-by-day.

Hey Ralynda!

Thanks for the nice compliment!! You made my day! (I love Lucy and wouldn't mind looking like her either!! -- She reminds me of my Mom. )

Yes, please post a pic! It is nice to associate a name with a face.

Congratulations on another cheat free day! Woo Hoo!

It is exciting to see everyone doing so well! I know this challenge has really helped me. When I was craving, I didn't give in -- the impulse was there, but then I thought of coming here and talking about it...and I didn't want to lose my two weeks and start over.

Thanks everyone for joining! You are the greatest! This time we're doing it!!
