YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY on down 8.8 already!!! What a great motivation for getting back in! WOOT WOOT!
Would you like to join in our weekly goal? Perhaps you could shoot for 212? That'd be 2.4 this week - also how often are you weighing? GIMME DA DETES!!
It does suck butt to be running on empty!
Sure, I'll join in the weekly goal. I'll shoot for 212, my weigh in is on Thursday though. It that okay? I'll add "WG" to my list via edit. Thanks for asking me to join in on the fun. :-)
**I weigh weekly

Sandy,
A belated welcome back from a newcomer! I’m clinking my bulletproof coffee mug to yours! Cheers.
8.8 pounds in two weeks is amazing!
Kudos for tracking glucose! A great data point - probably more so than weight.

@mistymeadows2005, I may switch to Friday, will let ya know. lol @jadepearl thanks! :-) @LiLee2018 thank you, Lisa! @volgirl1322 Thank you and me too! Last night my sinuses were draining and I woke at 1am with a cough due to a constant tickle... must be the *kitten* end of my cold but I didn't cough all day yesterday or today, just the wee morning hours and it lasted like two hours. I never did get back to sleep. @asgentr Most definitely more important than the weight! And cheers back atcha with my BPC mug! haha
^^A BLT Spinach salad with a whole avocado, sweet onions, jalapeños, extra sharp cheddar cheese and dressing made from EVOO and raspberry vinegar. My dessert was a couple pieces of my fat bomb I made yesterday, melted down and 3 tbsp of chia seeds were added for thickness so I could dip sections of a whole pear in it. Everything was yum! :-)

Glucose level was 86 this morning, woohoo!
Your thoughts/comments on the day: Woke and stayed awake around 1am with a nagging cough from post nasal drip that lasted two hours. Aside from that, I am in good spirits and have energy (just not a lot). Also had no problem sitting down with my husband while he chowed on a beautiful lasagna I made him. I may have some tomorrow, not sure because I'm planning an extended fast after my final meal and I think I should have a lot of fat instead of being carb overloaded. We shall see :-)0 -
Sorry you have the sinus crap---it is really bad where I live as well everything is in bloom!
Your meal looks amazing.....It is almost my meal time and I am drooling...…
You are rocking it with your glucose numbers!!!1 -
During spring and summer, lots of people here in Down Under have hay fever and sinus. It drives everyone nuts. Both hubby and I had really bad hay fever and no medicine could help us at all. Now that we are in Autumn, voila...no more hay fever but its more about fever, runny nose, cough and flu...:( Our doctors are making so much money...:(
Keep up the good work! Cheering you on! 1 -
Thanks @volgirl1322, I drool too when I see food porn if I haven't eaten yet. lol
@jadepearl haha, yay, glad the hay fever season is over for you and your hubby! I have a few over the counter pills I take if my sinuses get super bad, I just didn't take any that day because they weren't bad enough to warrant them. I got some yesterday, but I didn't take any before bed and thankfully I didn't wake with a nagging cough. lol0 -
Yesterday's Meal
Day Before Yesterday's Meal
First and last (this time around) that I will count calories. I just wanted to make sure my intuitive skill for not going low cal are still in place, and they are, yay! I will be sticking to not counting calories because I hate it. Using MFP calculator served its purpose for me at one time, it helped develop what is now intuition, so I'm glad I got to know foods better because of it. I forgot to include the grand total in my pictures, but just doing the math shown... over 2000 calories yesterday and over 1900 the day before.1 -
That's awesome. I hope to get to that point one day. I hate counting calories, but I'm part of a challenge on FB where I have to post it up every day. Plus I just need to do it still to make sure I'm not eating too much.1
-
That is great that you know now, that is a good place to be in especially as you prepare for maintenance. I still count occasionally just to stay on track...but it isn't something I want to do long-term.....

I know them well that I don't need to count, I could eat intuitively and not log but I like having the diary to go back and reference, as well and notice patterns etc.
Sounds NOM NOM and I'm so glad you're getting back into a routine 1 -
@LiLee2018 and @volgirl1322 and @mistymeadows2005, thanks so much! I think it’s great that you all are counting for various reasons. Whatever it takes, right?
This group hasn’t changed a bit and I love it. Everyone is awesome!0 -

Your thoughts/comments on the day: Had a solid six hours of sleep but needed Aleve PM's to do it, I felt great and energetic for the larger part of the day... except my right butt cheek all the way down the center of leg, calves, heel and ball of foot hurt because I exercised today and must've did something wrong. Now I'm feeling tired but I can't get settled for a nap because of my right lower parts. I plan on starting an E/F tomorrow, I'm not sure how long I will go, but will play it day by day :-)
Below: Two chicken thighs with skin wrapped in 2 pieces of bacon each. Mashed cauliflower with butter and half n half, asparagus smothered in olive oil, and dessert was a chocolate avocado pudding made with coconut oil, a medium avocado, and cacao powder topped with walnuts to dip my beautiful strawberries. **This was a "hmm, I wonder" dessert, had I not already been adjusted to not using any sweeteners in anything, I probably would have spit it out. But I loved it :-)

NOM NOM NOM that looks freakin amazing!1

Delicious! I can't believe mashed cauliflower wasn't a thing until recently. It's so good.1
