Seems my weight loss is stuck in the mud. But I will keep on keepin' on, gals. My Pity Party of One is over officially today. No more double cheeseburgers from White Castle. :embarassed: I am going to fight with all I have - even the 10% of my back that still works! :noway:

Thanks for the encouragement, sisters! I will continue to do this!

So here I sit, 10pm and still have 700 some calories left. I don't know what's wrong. I have NO appetite today. Which is funny I woke up starving. I've had a migraine most all of the day, which I suppose is most of the problem. I'm ready for bed :frown: unfortunately I'm at work.

I had a bad weekend....

I ate my feelings again, really need to get to the root of that. I was really upset about something (dont want to share) and I jsut immedietly wanted to stuff my face and I did, and even after I started to get sick from eating too much I kept on eating until I just couldnt move anymore its so disturbing. I feel like a junkie but my drug of choice is food

Purple - Great job with the self-control!
Cris - HUGS!!

Friday night was ridiculous. We went over to the New Jersey Beer Company for a meet-up for beer geeks like my husband. Everyone brought fun fancy beer and shared. I probably had about 4 beers when you total up all my 2-3 oz samples. We've discussed that I'm turning into a bit of a lightweight without the excess weight I used to have (hahaha.....I'm a dork). In addition t to my lightweight status, the average alcohol level of these beers was 9.0%. For reference, Miller Light is like 4.2%. So while I had 4 beers, the alcohol I had was closer to 8 beers! :noway:

We've also discussed how I make poor food choices when I drink. I may have set a new record - I ate FOUR pieces of pizza throughout the night. Yes my friends, FOUR NY style large pieces of pizza. On one hand, it was likely necessary to sop up all that booze! On the other hand, that was like 1200 calories (what I should eat in an entire day!) in food. BLECH!

Anyway, now I'm done with confession. It was big time bad news bears, but that's ok. Moved on and yesterday I was under cals. So there! :laugh:

Friday check-in:
Cals - Just a little over....2824!!!
Water - 64 oz
Exercise - Walked about a mile
Proud - That I didn't eat an entire pizza?

Saturday check-in:
Cals: Under w/exercise - 1350
Water: 32 oz...not enough
Exercise - We were walking machines - about 3 miles total throughout the day.
Proud - We went out to brunch and got pancakes. They were delicious. There were three on the plate. I ate two, realized that I was done, covered up the rest with my napkin and was done. Yeah self-control!

Cris: Sorry to hear you had a crummy weekend. Hopefully things get better soon. We're here for you!

Meokk: Thanks for the link to the picture gallery. Is it terrible that now I want to go even lower than my goal weight? I don't think the women pictured for my height at the goal weight looked very good.

Lauren: At least you had fun, right? The beer events that you go to sound like so much fun to me! The extra food calories don't sound as nice, though. Just work hard so there are no negative effects and you'll be fine.

So far, I've done pretty well this weekend foodwise. If I can hold it together today, it will be the first weekend in a long time that I didn't go overboard. It feels nice! I saw a 188.0 on the scale yesterday, so it's very possible to get to 187 this week! The scale was at 189.0 this morning, but I know I didn't drink nearly enough water yesterday, so lesson learned there.

Checking in for yesterday:
Calories: Under by 155
Sodium: Over by 1356
Water: 48 oz.
Exercise: catching, grooming, riding and walking my horse. It was warm again and I was pretty soaked when we got done. In all, we spent about two hours with the horse.
Proud: That I had calories left over on a Saturday!
