PSA on peanut butter
Peanut butter goes bad. Everybody learn from my mistake. I didn't think peanut butter ever went bad. *ew, peanut butter oil all over the counter and my hand and my elbow*

Where the weight is coming off
Now I know where all the weight I've lost is coming from! My wrists! They've always been tiny to begin with (just for fun, I measured - it's a six inch wrist). And now my watch is sliding around more than usual, sometimes completely around. Dear body, I have a checklist of the parts of me that need to lose weight.…

Mysterious weight gain
Over the last two or three days, I've gone from weighing 161 every evening to 165. I'm eating all my calories and sometimes a little bit over, but that shouldn't make me gain - I should just be losing at a slower rate. I exercise every day and try to vary the times and the speed when I can. I drink too much water for it to…

Feeling Discouraged
For the record, I'm happy that I've lost the weight I have. But I have seen and felt no changes, so my two problems areas are still making me feel disgusting. Ever since my double-chin came along and took away my jaw line, I've had a real hard time looking at pictures, and sometimes even mirrors in certain lights. And my…

10 pounds shed
It took about five weeks of nothing through most of May, but then I dropped about four pounds of water weight (I now drink water like crazy, which has helped stop rampant water retention) and started losing in earnest in June. It's just a pound a week because the only exercise I'm able to do is fast walking for about an…

This is a little backward...
... I adjusted my settings in order to accommodate a more sedentary lifestyle (I walked around a lot more to get to where I was going when I was in university). So now I'm eating about 150 calories less than before. Intuitively, this should mean that it's harder to keep from going over. So why am I having trouble trying to…

Might be working
It's taken seven weeks, but I think (just think) it might be working. When and if I reach 165 lbs, I'll know. If it is working, here's hoping it keeps working. :)

1 month here and...
2 lbs lost. 2 lbs that could just be fluid fluctuation, especially since the waistband of my jeans continue to cut into my stomach when I sit. It may actually be worse. I've been doing everything I'm supposed to. What's up?

Itchy skin?
Now, my skin has never been the top contender for insensitivity. On the contrary, I have a history of fairly sensitive skin. But it's never been nearly as bad as these last few years. It's only localized on my legs: behind my knees, between and behind my thighs, and sometimes behind my calves. Sometimes I scratch so much…

Dreamed about calories
I dreamed I went to a dinner where there was Olive Garden stuff like breadsticks and spaghetti. I told myself that I would make up for the calories I took in by eating a breadstick after I entered it into this site! You guys are invading my dreams now!

How did I only eat 800 calories?
Okay, I'll admit it, I'm not feeling my best, which leads to eating less. But how do I go from eating up to 2400 calories one day without breaking a sweat, and then having to work to break 1000 the next? I'm on this site to help me with overeating, not undereating.
