Schmoooozie...Holy shit 34 lbs??? That's awesome. If I pass right on by you at the Reunion in September, doesn't mean I'm being a snob. Just means I didn't recognize your skinny ass....
Keep up the fantastic work! Speaking of IHOP, got my order and she fucked up and forgot my 2 pancakes. Brought me wheat toast instead with the egg beaters and 2 slices of turkey bacon. I guess my face was all pouty, cuz she said "what's with the face"? LMAO, I looked at my wife and said, did i have a funny face or something? She said yep, you looked like a disappointed little kid. Then they brought on my pancakes....Damn straight....It was no big deal, I told her I'm fine without them. She brought them out 5 minutes later.... My stinger was happy and content and I enjoyed each bite of everything. And...I didn't eat all the scrambled egg beaters...I was too full...Usually I'd eat everything on the plate because it's "just there"....Nope, Scorpi pants got some good control going on.... Tomorrow is weigh in day...Stay tuned for the results.... ![]() Quote:

I'm pretty happy with my food intake yesterday:
Breakfast: piece of bread with a smear of peanut butter Lunch/snacks: Lara bar, peanut butter sandwich, non-fat fruit yogurt, banana Dinner: piece of toast with cheddar cheese and sweet relish, some wheat thins My partner and her kid are going to Trader Joe's today and I'm joining them so I can pick out some lunch choices for me. I don't think they have roast chicken there but that would be a good protein-high alternative for lunches instead of peanut butter which I'm sure you've noticed, I have quite a Jones for. I suppose I could bake a bunch of chicken breasts for the week, but it's never as tasty as the kind you buy already roasted. I'm feeling all hopeful because I lost 4 pounds in like just over a week or whenever I first posted in this thread, and I only have 9 to 15 pounds to go (I want to end up at 135-140). Every time I check this thread, someone has lost a couple pounds. It's very inspiring. Also it's great to have somewhere to report on my progress, which let's face it, is TMI in real life. So thanks for listening/reading. |

Good morning healthies
![]() I'm starting the day off with black coffee and fresh pineapple...one of the joys of living in south Florida where fresh delicious pineapple is at the farmers market almost all the time and not at all expensive. Rooster and I both love it, especially for breakfast. The scale is holding steady but I know I am building muscle and shrinking in inches, so I'm not worried about it. These things take time, and positive changes are happening even in a stressful time that would normally have me running for the Coke and Snickers. I'm so glad to see so many people in here....and hello and welcome to anyone I may have missed. It helps so much to hear about people successes (and challenges) and to share tips and ideas. Just love it. Hugs to you all!

The scale is messing with me.
Day one: 169 and change Day two: 170 and change Day three: 169 and change Day four: 170 and change Day five: 169 and change I'm about to hop on it again. If it says 170 and change, I'm going to give it Juney's evil eye. |

Day to day changes aren't indicators as much as long-term change. Comparing day 1 to day 2 might say a lot about where you are in your cycle, retaining fluid, and foods that cause bloating—temporary changes—but comparing day 1 to day 10 could say something about permanent change. I gain as much as four pounds before my period. I can start out with comfortable clothes in the morning and while eating sensibly, experience bloating that makes my waistband pinch by the end of any given day, and I can have a difference of two pounds from day to day. It makes me feel crazy, like I'm not in control. But if I compare numbers over the longer periods of time, I feel reassured that my efforts are making slow, healthy, long-term change happen. That's also how I get myself to stop beating myself up, if I binge on any given day. I tell myself, It was a bad day, but it was a day out of ten good days. That often (but not always), makes me feel better. I think it sounds like you're in a good place. What's your goal? Are you fairly close to it? |

does anyone use cooking oil and what kind?
anyone hear of Rice Bran Oil? .. better than olive oil? Used for centuries in Asia, Rice Bran oil contains the most nutritious elements from rice, including the dynamic fight fighting duo Monounsaturated and Polyunsaturated fats that can help you trim and tighten your waistline. Also found in Rice Bran oil is a super fat-fighting plant phyto-chemical called Gamma Oryzanol that forces your cells to burn excess sugar in your bloodstream... ...this means sugar does NOT hang out in your bloodstream as long, nor get deposited on your hips and belly! Rice Bran Oil also has a healthy amount of omega 6 fatty acids, which actually help you feel full sooner resulting in eating less and helps decrease your appetite without dangerous drugs. If that weren't enough to get excited about, it's also packed with Vitamin E & health-promoting antioxidants. Fight fat with fat... and win! I know it probably sounds crazy, but one of the hardest things to realize is that your body fat actually burns easier in the presence of the right HEALTHY Fats... ...Your body actually needs these fats like Rice Bran oil to lose weight maximally. Now, trying this Rice Bran oil out is a no-brainer because it's super easy to use, cooks food well, and gives it a nice, colorful lite and unique taste. People are even using it to replace butter and getting it to pass with a full house of super picky eaters. You don't know any of those do you? ;-). Rice Bran also has a higher cooking temperature and you can cook up 490 degrees before it begins to smoke (that's 130 higher than olive oil... nice). Zero to Hero Fitness, LLC |

![]() Hazelnut coffee ![]() I am back to swimming in the morning. Tried the exercise walking thing and the broken ankle & foot screamed at my hip and said otherwise. Thus, the pool is safest right now, plus taking the stairs at work, shadow boxing to a video at home, and Wiiiiiiii at my friend's. I have been off track for about 6 months, so need to catch up one meal at a time. |

I felt relaxed and in charge of my intake at dinner last night. Instead of the salmon, which comes with rich mashed potatoes etc., I had a fancy salad the probably had too many beans, too much corn and cheese but could have been worse. And I had ONE piece of bread. And one glass of wine.
Today: I feel like I have a big hard baby bump. Stress and depression and menopause and not getting enough sleep are really f***ing with my body. But here's what I had today: Breakfast: Lara bar on the train to work. Lunch: veggie sushi, non-fat yogurt, blueberries. Snack: a few pecans and raisins. Snack at home: blue corn chips Dinner: Grilled chicken from Trader Joe's, plus the GF made eggplant/white beans/tomatoes over pasta and I had a bowl of that. (I would be happier if it hadn't had so many white beans, and if there hadn't been pasta, but what can I say. I don't live alone anymore and I don't get to dictate the menu and I can't resist the smell of food cooking when I'm hungry. Or at least I haven't figured out a way...) I'm beginning to think, I can never control my weight, as long as I live here. Is it possible I can only maintain my weight with external controls? That I really don't have internal controls, and I'm dependent on what's around me, in order to get a grip on my diet? I'm like a reptile that can only control its body temperature by putting itself in warm places—that dependency on the external, for internal change. Okay now I'm comparing myself to a reptile, which is really not a good place to be, so I'm going to get off the computer and end with something positive; that it was nice to log on and see all these positive, happy-cooking, happy-eating, happy-exercising people. Love, IslandScout (you can call me Scout) |
