I got on the scale and then I literally jumped OFF the scale and yelled "OH **** NO!" this morning when I saw what it said!!!!

TOM came this afternoon.

Nothing counts this week LOL

Went to the beach today and I look like a lobster!

Good morning everyone. All is well here, my daughter is on day 4 of this WOL and has lost two pounds, while I fluctuate with 2lbs up, 2lbs down...Don't even think about charting it, Saty, I will report when things settle down. I am off to make the kiddo an omlet, right now I am vigilant about her breakfast, lunch and dinner. She seems to be relieved to be loosing again, after watching the scales only go up for a while there...she is in ketosis and it's like this magical place because of the way her Mom has painted it!

Re: Trick *NO* Treats: Lose 10 lbs by Halloween!

Everyone is trying so hard and doing a great job, I'm proud of everyone who made it through the long holiday weekend unscathed.

I was good, but can't say am unscathed, however. Was obliged to endure the duration of 10 full-fledged family meals at Mom's with my brother's wife & 2 kids & my DS. Needless to say, with a formal mom who likes to cook and do meals the old-fashioned way, every meal began with something, then a main course, then passing of seconds, and except for after breakfast, then dessert; this would be followed by the proper cleanup, some sit down TV watching or gaming for 1-2 hours, then it starts all over for the next meal (unless it's 9pm).

It was impossible to finish at the same time as everyone else without both eating painfully slow from a large helping of whatever I could eat, and taking seconds of it, so as not to be rude sitting with an empty plate while they were still eating. I was pretty good, however, I ate too much.

Typical Bkfst: Coffee, 1/2 grapefruit, 1 slice melon, 3 eggs, 4-5 slices bacon, more coffee. (no waffles/french toast/pancakes etc)
Lunch example: 3-4 pieces (not breast) from KFC, with breading removed as much as possible, 1/2C green beans, dozen grapes, Diet soda. (no KFC slaw, biscuit, corn, potatoes & gravy; no ice cream)
Dinner example: 2 servings "Dutch Rarebit" without the bread (not so innocent looking cheese stuff) over broccoli & cauliflower, dz. grapes, diet soda w/vodka (no toast, no rice, no pie alamode).

Am up 2# and hoping it literally will "pass" by tomorrow. Nuff said. Gotta be bulk & water retention, as worked out incredibly yesterday once folks left, but skipped lunch and then ate double servings of steak & veggies last night.
