Previous Round 34 Starting Weight 352.2

3/9=352.2 * So last round I had a weight loss of ?? ( wanna know read my spoiler-Muahahahaha) I really liked the 10-day challenge even though I didn't get in on the whole 10 days, but this one I will be. So last night I walked around the block it was the same distance as going to the park and back. Then for dinner, I made this very delish (with ideas for improvement for next time I cook it) Oven Baked Risotto with Mushrooms. Oh, and I landed a new job!! it's part-time $10 an hour but I'm not complaining. Its better than what I have now which is $0.

3/10 & 3/11=354.6 & 354.4 * So I'm going to post 2 days into one update. So on the 10th was my first full day at sitting as the Easter Bunny at the mall. Which to tell you all a secret ( I think half the time I might have been snoozing zzzzzzzzzzzzzz) Not because I was bored but here am, sitting in these insanely tight Bunny Bottoms size (LARGE) and here my (FLUFFY size 24) is squeezed inside them; every discomforting. Add a mix of it dark inside the head of the Bunny and for some reason maybe human design flaw but when I'm sitting for a while and nothing keeps my thought pattern going (This can be either light or dark setting) my brain will start going into sleep mood. Part of my job is "Bunnies can't talk"

Now Picture This Been sitting still and quiet, all is calm inside the Giant Bunny Head; so a yawn creeps up on you, next thing you know is you hear Oh, I think the Easter Bunny is tired which snap you out of this deeper than cat nap snooze. And you see a young girl waving and the mother whisper that to her. So now your brain is like Mister Easter Bunny *kitten* that me (Brain start waving) Ok they are waving and smiling and walking away. Good Whew!!! Then you start wondering Exactly how long, was your sleeping between the last wave and this wave it couldn't have been that long, NAH!!! we are good I'm gon Y-A-W-N stay awake this time

Or Picture This It was about an hour and a half after I became the Easter Bunny, It's time for a water break I can't drink too much while in suit beacuse then I'll have to pee and that would be bad cuz Remeber I'm stuffed into the pants So I'm being escorted to the hall way where I can take a breather and get some water to drink, so I'm barely walking cuz it's large bulk feet and too bulk pants and equally tight pants and WHAM!! out of now where there are 6-pint size minions grabbing your legs and all talking at one time "Hey mister Easter Bunny do you remember meeting me when I was 2?" "Are you going to bring the eggs to us this year at our new house?" "Where is your house Mister Easter Bunny?" "Can I tell you my Christmas List, You know Santa Don't you?" and all you can do is try NOT REPEAT NOT knock over little Sara or Jimmy and give a thumbs up because EASTER BUNNIES DON'T TALK

So that is how yesterday went, Oh and being the Easter Bunny will end up walking 2 miles each day. It's 1 mile to the mall where my job is then, of course, you got to walk the same 1 mile back home. Today is the 11th and I was off work Tomorrow I have to go to work at 9:45 am. Yes! I will more than likely bring home more funny tales of being the Easter Bunny tomorrow as well.

P.s Yesterday stunt as Easter Bunny I realized that a lot of people just think that under the mask is a Male Human, I'm here to set things straight Females Humans can be bunnies too. Most of all of yesterday that what I Heard Mister Easter Bunny. Which I haven't had any kids yet but I think if I choose to teach them about the Easter bunny Highly Doubtful, as I'm Pagan but if I did I would them to know that girls can be Easter bunnies too.

3/12=351.6 *So yesterday I didn't have to go to work, and we had family over the weekend visiting. At the end of the night, Someone had brought in a leftover slice of pizza and 2 fried mushroom caps, which in turn became my dinner. So today being the Easter Bunny it was super busy until my break then it was like I could hear Crickets (Chirp Chirp). On the plus side, I was slightly way more comfortable than yesterday. Instead of pulling the bunny pants up all the way, I left the front part waistband under my big fluffy tummy role. I don't think I fell asleep any till after 1:30 pm when it got really slow. This whole week should be fast, it's spring break. Whelp!! That it for today, stay tuned for the tomorrow tale of Easter Bunny Stories.

3/13=353.2 *I seem to be hovering between 353 and 351 So yesterday lunch after I got home from work, was super yummy!! I made Maple-Dijon Panko Portobellos. Out of the 4 people that ate myself included all gave it a 4 out of 4 **** in case you didn't know **** is meant to be stars. I never really been a salad person, as I always thought they don't have any flavor or taste well the dressing I made for the side dish.I could have *LICKED THE BOWL CLEAN. Which each meal that I have been making from the meal planning website Meal Planning Website--Cook Smart comes with a side dish. And for $8 a month to get a pre-made shopping list and meals with sides and you can choose from different options such as Gulen Free and Vegetarian as well Oringal and Paleo it's a no-brainer. With my whole family giving me Rav Reviews. I guess we will find out as I have a fancy grilled cheese recipe planned for today. Which if you wanna know how that goes; you will just have to find my post and read about it.

3/14 & 3/15=353.6 & 353.8 * I think I may be stuck in the weight loss area!! So yesterday I walked half of my 2-mile walk for work. Then I took a left home as I volunteered to do a double shift so I could learn how to the sales part of being the whole Easter Bunny. So I took the lyft to the pawn shop and bought a bike and Lesson to be learned=Look at it good before buying It wasn't anything that couldn't be fixed. After the double shift, I came home to make our dinner for the evening. Which was a delish soup called Tom Kha Gai Soup. I didn't put the ginger or lemongrass stalks in it that it called for but out of the 2 other nightly dinner eaters they really loved the soup and you got the hint that it's supposed to a Thai soup flavor it had coconut milk in it as part of the broth. After the double shift, I did and standing up and cooking dinner my lower back would end up pinching my back and make my legs go numb. I slept deep and didn't want to wake up this morning. However, Mother Nature had other plans.

On This Episode of Easter Bunny Tales At this mall I work at, there is an indoor ice skating rink. So yes if you are wondering if someone falls, yes it makes a loud boom sound as people hit the ice. So here I sit as the Easter Bunny and I look over at the ice rink and see this group of 5 girls skating arm in arm. This can only end so badly!. Yep! you guess it sorta started out as the outer middle 4 girls going down. Followed by a slow-motion jerking stop of everyone as this happen girl 2 and 5 fell. So now so now 1 and 3 are half bent over trying not to fall. If you could see an image call to mind A domino chain reaction the first went down then the rest followed.

3/16 & 3/17=351.2 & 349.8 * Good Heavens!! on Soil this damn platue I'm on is about to drive me insane Well the good news is I finally fell off the cliff I was on from the platue of standstill weightloss. This last week I have been so far behind in posting daily. Mainly because I have been working as the Easter Bunny then life happens and it almost seems impossible to keep up with everything. So Thursday for lunch as everyone had to get ready to go to work that evening I made Jerk Chicken Thighs. To be honest I wasn't fond of the salad dressing for the salad but the chicken and rice and beans were freaking fantastic. I'm thinking about building me a pop-up bike camper to pull behind me on a bike and take off and go travel this summer, though this has been a dream for many moons and I still haven't followed it.So we will see. The good news is I don't have to work tomorrow so I'll be able to do a daily update on it.

3/18=349.0 *I'm glad to be off the platue I was on for the last few days Yesterday was a super bad day. Life handed me an F* You card and I ended up having a mini-meltdown crying all over the place for about 30mins. Which yeah I quit my job as Easter Bunny. Then I woke up today knowing even though I fell off keeping track of what I ate last night around dinner time was just a bad evening and today is a brand new day. Then I come here to post and I noticed today is the last of Round 34 Wow!! time flies. And sitting here know how the last 2 rounds of Just Give Me 10 Days has helped me. I think during the next round I'm gonna give backstory over my last 2yrs of weight loss; who knows maybe it will help someone else who is struggling. Whelp, suppose that is it. This round I only ended up loseing 3.2lbs, which is nothign to get sad about as it's still a loss.

Round 35 Starting Weight 349.0
3/19=348.8 *Thursday I didn't go to work as Easter Bunny by Friday I didn't have a job Saturday Sunday I ended up not tracking what I really ate as closely as I should have and I haven't taken the 2-mile walk that I normally would have so overall this weekend has been a crap suck Fest I really need to get back on track.
