    Happy Thursday OMAD SQUAD!!!

    Happy with weigh- in today: 153

    Since my cals didn't stay all that low yesterday (whoops LOL) that was mostly from getting the proper amount of water - all said:

    Cals - 1421
    Def - 381

    Chicken w gravy, peas, halo top, whipped cream, grapes - I'd send you a picture but it's the same thing I've been eating all week LOL

    SO finally got over a gallon of actual water yesterday so feeling less puffy today but still a tiche. BECAUSE of the bloating feeling still being here this late in the week, I'm going to fast today. I don't wanna but I gotta move the range down a little moreeeeeeeee each week til I'm happy. I ate REALLY good all week, I'll be fine with one day LMAO Plus I'll probably have Culver's tomorrow. 1 day of fasting erases my ENTIRE weekend surplus, so it really would behoove me to just suck it up and do a fast a week. I'll probably do that actually...then a combined deficit of the rest of the week at maybe half a pound...that'd pace me to lose half a pound a week until my "low" number is at 145 or lower and "high" number no higher than 153(ish).

    Pushing water hard again today and hoping for 150 or lower tomorrow to get a good start on this plan. True story kids...I haven't done any physical activity in AGES. I'd like to commit to it again, but realistically I'm just not motivated to do it right now. I guess I don't HAVE to but I'd like my butt back LOL

    Anyway here's a Bubs picture to make everyone happy, myself included LMAO - he's started a cute new thing where when he walks up to lay in my lap, he now walks head on and instead of snuggling in and getting comfy, FACING ME he does a gymnast-like twisty flop down into my lap, and wherever he lands is where he'll lay :D:D:D

    Someone has you wrapped around their little precious paw <3<3

    Your plan sounds good and I am sure you will get to your 145ish quickly!
    On the exercise I hate it as well and usually I end up cussing my way through it but then after I am so happy it is done. Unfortunately for me it is a 5am workout which makes it even more pleasant, but that is the only time that works for me....sooooo.........hopefully you will find your groove to get your booty back :) LOL

    Great job on your loss :) You will be in 140 land in no time :) Same here, if I can, I will not want to exercise but I know that if I don't, I will not be able to get down to my GW. So, every single day, I force myself to do it...its a real struggle, I tell ya. Bubs is just toooo cute! <3<3<3

    Happpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppy Friday!

    Fast was SORTA successful yesterday lmao - I may or may not have had some pickles and wine :D:D:D Salt and alcohol....great idea on a fast day Steph! :D

    Still got off a few more pounds, and it's as CLOSE to a "true" weight as I'm gonna get:
    151.5

    SO I'm about 3.5 pounds up from my lowest - gimme a few weeks and we'll get back down but I'm happy!

    Realized on tues that this Monday is Labor Day - when you don't work in an office, bank holidays somehow become irrelevant in my brain (even though IT'S NOT! I'm in a business day industry LMAO) Anyway I have no fun plans whatsoever...my sister Stacy is coming over for a bit tomorrow but that's about it....Culver's tonight...got new coups in the mail yesterdayyyyyyyyyy <3

    Since no food, no fun pictures of grub but here's Bubs this morning. He makes it very difficult to get outta bed for work! LMAO

    Happy Tuesday Kids! Hope everyone had a super duper holiday! I thought I might have some work stuff pop up but NOPE...work free day! This whole self-employment thing really is the sh** man...it's just awesome <3 Caught up with one of my gals from one of my previous shops last night too - super nice...I miss some of my peeps that didn't bring me on (just didn't need my services) when I left UWM...ah well...we're friends so we can catch up on the phone now and again <3

    Weekend food report:
    Friday/Sat - OMAD, Culver's
    Sunday - 2MAD, noodlies and McD's for dinner
    Monday - weird day...had afternoon cocktails and 3 mini quesadillas for lunch/dinner and a little debbie starcrunch

    Friday I pretty much at at TDEE, Sat and Sun I went WAY over but at least Sat was an OMAD :)
    Yest Cal report:
    Cals - 1727
    Def - 225

    Noodlies:

    McD's - 20 piece nugs #NugLife and a sausage mcmuffin, with an ARRAY of dippage available :)
    w0s3zmackwdu.png

    This week is business as usual...mini fasts and I'll attempt a fast Thurs as long as nothing changes :) Shooting for a 1k deficit today and tomorrow...which means cals have to stay real low :)


    And Bubs cause......Bubs <3 He's all healed up and being a terror again (not that he ever really stopped LOL)

    Sleepy. snuggly baby

    Bubs is just soooo cute <3<3<3
    Ooo... over here, right now, McD Nuggets is 24 pieces for $9.95 and we have been eating there with our kids...yummo!

    mistymeadows2005 Posts: 3,737 Member
    They have a special going here where if you buy a 10 piece you can get another for $1! So basically 7 bucks for 20 LOL - WINNING!

    Update - Bubs has stolen all of my pens. Went to right down some notes earlier? ALL. 4. PENS. GONE. Not just office the table or something...completely MIA...my broker Rob was laughing at me hysterically while I fluttered around trying to find a GD pen lmao

    Sorry it's so late today kids I'll update as soon as I catch up with everyone <3

    OMG one of my previous cats was a thief too. Totally thief, she would take money, razors, cigarettes (back when I smoked), lighters, pens, tissues, just about anything........while the stories are funny at the time I was like what the heck LOL......

    He is pretty smart --if mommy has no pens --she can't work, she can crawl back in bed and give me all the snuggles :) LOL :p

    LMAO you're gonna crack up when I post the photo from this morning - that was EXACTLY his goal! LITTLE STINKER!!! He was also wailing on the phone when I was talking to Rob...HE thinks it's HILARIOUS so whenever he hears him he now goes "BUBS!!!" lmaooooo - GOD I love my people lololol

    For the record, haven't located a single one of the missing pens. Found a new one in my office but who knows how long I'll get to keep it :D

    OK WEDS!

    We finally made it to the forumsssss <3
    I had 2 broker calls before my butt even got out of BED today! LMAO - hey, I like making money so I'm not complaining LOL

    Ok so - I done f**ked up. I say that like I ate 5000 cals...I didn't LOL - only appx 350 BUT it was 2 little debbie treats which are GARBAGE lololol and the amount of sugar alone killed my weigh in today...well that and only like half a gallon of water yesterday (BLECH) I feel a tiche lethargic today and I GUARANTEE you it's cause I really had a bad water day...today isn't going much better but I'm going to start pushing RIGHT MEOW lol

    Anyway 156.1


    AGAIN :expressionless:

    Yesterday breakdown - 2.5 oz leftover chicken, 5 oz rib meat, 2/3 cup of pork gravy, corn, strawberries w FF whipped cream, grapes, and the devil cakes LOL

    Cals - 1418
    Def - 377

    I've gotta keep it under 1000k today AND fast tomorrow to hope to break even in my numbers this week. Not the end of the world, just annoying LOL - hey 5 pounds in 2 days would be a almost half pound loss on the week so that'd be good :)

    Here's some pics of dinner and Bubsy :)

    Dinner:

    @volgirl1322 Donna this is why I laughed - I took it this morn. I look awful but Bubsy was TOO cute to resist. The last few hours he wanted to sleep with HIS HEAD CRADLED IN MY HAND LOL - like as if I was CUPPING his head :expressionless: I can't even complain...I'm the one that spoiled him rotten :D

    OMG that is so funny......he is totally giving you the little kitten stink eye for disturbing him in bed.....OMG he totally needs his own insta account no doubt........Also pretty sure during that moment, he was like, the pens, all the pens they will be mine!!! Cuteness :)

    Well keep pushing that water it works wonders........:)

    OMG ---anything little debbie is totally dangerous ---so little so innocent......I have had a craving for moon pies (do you even have those up north?) OMG I think i will treat myself this weekend they are so delicious......full of sugar but amazing......

    WE DO INDEED! We have all things junk food LMAO - I get them for Ced cause he likes 'em when he's gaming after I'm asleep. These ones we're FUN ONES! Orange cream cakes, and strawberry cakes with fudge coating and starcrunch (I didn't eat the str one just the other 2 LOL). I'm not a big marshmellow fan so moon pies wouldn't be my choice but I see the allure LOL

    I never thought about Insta! I should probs make him an account! I told Ced we should exploit him and have him be a commercial kitty to sell things and we'll pocket the money :D:D:D He wasn't actually against it, though I was mostly kidding LMAO

    Speaking of that front, another of my lenders just tried to recruit me LMAO - I doubt it'll work out but good to know I have so many freakin' options LMAO

    OMG, love that photo of Bubs with that grumpy look "Can't I get some sleep?" Missing pens? Does Bubs have a special hide-out where he keeps everything he finds? It might be there <3

    Hi Kids!

    Weird day today so short post LOL

    154.7 this morning - another fail yesterday but we're going to try to kick those 3 pounds overnight with a fast today. I REALLY don't want to but a little self-control is good for ya right? LOL

    Ced talked me into cuddling with him after I got work started this morning so I really didn't hit it hard until like 2 oclock LOL

    I'll letcha know how the week ends tomorrow kiddos, and bring you more Bubs pics <3

    Good luck for today!!!! Nothing wrong with a little snuggle time <3 hope bubs wasn't too jealous LOL :p
  • Good luck with the fast. And you’re right, there’s nothing wrong with taking control. Good for you! Do things the way you want it. It is your mind, your body, your life.

    Really impressed how well you are doing reading your posts. And hey! You’ve gotten over those “failures” many times before, so really, you’re one big success haha :wink: You got this.

    Also scrolling through and reading your posts... it wasn’t good for my hunger hahaha. I’m really in the mood to eat now, so perhaps I’ll commit to reading the forums after my meal :lol: Come to think of it, it is a great exercise of control for me too! Like Joe says... don’t avoid it, choose not to, or say you can have it later :)

    Thanks Em! (My best friend's name is Emily so I'm taking liberties on the nicknames LMAO)

    I love to cook so hopefully you enjoyed the pictures :) Yeah failure is a relative word...everything's temporary and no one day defines your journey :)

    Just replied to your post as well, very excited to see your official weigh in tomorrow!

    Sorry for the delay on the post m'loves!

    Yesterday basically became a weekend day because 2 of my 3 brokers were out of town SO I wasn't stuck in front of my computer much.

    Fast went well! Had a few crackers and cheese late because my stomach got a little upset which is really unusual for me, but hey whatever.

    Official weigh in - 151.5

    Successful maintenance from last week to this. Would've liked a little tiny loss but oh well...considering how non-compliant I was this week I'll totally take it. Of course I saw a nice salt-induced weight jump this morning by breaking my fast with noodlies and Culver's :D:D

    Up to 154 and change this morning but if I don't gain anymore over the weekend I'll be in REALLY good shape for the week. Really 155-156 is fine w me on a Monday for now as long as I can get those 5-6 off through the week :)

    As promised some pictures:

    ....

    Have a great weekend guys!

    Glad your fast went well. Oh yeah, nothing as frustrating as weighing in after eating salt or too many carbs! And personally it makes me look so puffy too..

    Also... congrats on the maintenance, job well done!!! I’m sure you can get to where you want the coming week

    And oh my goodness, aren’t those the most adorable looking cats!

    Good night.
    Em. :)

    You are kicking so much butt! It still really amazes me that you can just fast for a day and not really think twice about it lol. Like I don't want to, but I'm doing it anyway! For someone like me who was struggling to even IF... that is hella impressive lol
