Sick of being sick

Dec 16, 2016

I'm sick again today this is like day 5 of having some kind of stomach thing. I don't know if this is from my concussion or if I actually have some kind of illness. I see a doctor today as long as the roads will let me go. I hope the doctor has some answers. I'm so sick of being sick. I want to get back on my diet and start losing again. Right now I'm 207.2. I was down to 205.6 but after not being able to eat protein I have put on some weight. It's terrible. It's so frustrating when Your body won't co operate with you.

Still Up Two POunds

Dec 15, 2016

I have been sick again and all I had yesterday was broth 1.5 cups and about 5 saltines and I didn't lose an ounce. I'm hoping today I feel better that I can get back on track with my eating. I know I couldn't have gained two pounds just eating broth and those few crackers but I'm guessing I do have water weight cuz it's very easy for me to retain water. I drank a lot of water yesterday but aparently it wasn't enough. I'm so disappointed. I have a fractured skull and I get sick to my stomach a couple times a week. I'm not sure if the two are connected but I'm going to find out tomorrow. I hope the doctor can do something to help me. I'm sick of being sick.

Have been doing everything right and still woke up with a gain

Dec 13, 2016

I woke up 2 lbs heavier today. I don't know why the only thing I can figure is that I am retaining water. I'm so disappointed. I'm so upset. I am hoping and praying that after today I will wake up with that two pounds gone and maybe some more. This is so frustrating I can't even believe it. I don't want to take a step backwards. I need to get going in the right direction again. Two pounds is a huge weight gain for someone who's only lost 17 lbs. I have worked so hard. My carbs have been below where they are supposed to be and my protein has been above. I just don't get it. I'm working on my water intake right now. I'm planning on 96 oz today and If that's not enough to promote a loss for tomorrow then I will drink more tomorrow.

very small loss today

Dec 10, 2016

I only lost .2 lbs today. I'm disappointed but at least it's a loss and not a gain. I don't know how I didn't lose more when I only had 600 calories yesterday. Well maybe tomorrow will be better. I may not have had enough to drink yesterday. Water has been upsetting my stomach and I didn't drink any coffee. I need some more propels. I love that stuff and can get all my water in when I drink it. I'm not sure what I'm eating today. I may have some more of my cabbage soup but I'm not sure. That's all I ate yesterday and I don't have my protonix so the cabbage did a number on my tummy. That's why I had so few calories yesterday. Oh but it was so good even if it did make me sick.

8 Lbs to go

Dec 10, 2016

I will be under 200 if I can just lose 8 more pounds. I woke up with a loss of .6 this morning so I'm exactly 207. It feels good to be losing. I made unstuffed cabbage soup for dinner last night and oh was it good. Only 1 carb per cup and filling. Just what the doctor ordered for this cold weather. It was easy to make too. It was done in about 45 minutes. My mom has lost 6 lbs and my husband gained a little but he's still around 20 lbs. Not sure why he gained cuz he's eating the same stuff I am. Hopefully he gets it off because I know how disappointing that can be. today I'm not sure what I'm eating for breakfast but I'm having my soup again for lunch and dinner. I bought some sugar free russel stauffers candy for snacking but I haven't really needed it. I have cheese sticks if I get hungry.

Down A Little today

Dec 09, 2016

I'm down to 207.6 lbs. That's 15 lbs exactly I've lost since the Thursday before Thanksgiving. I'm glad I lost today when I haven't lost the past couple of days. I was getting bummed out with no loss so I"m back on the losing track and feeling better. Today I'm going to eat bacon for breakfast, cottage cheese and pineapple for lunch, and a cabbage back with ground meat and stewed tomatoes for dinner. My mom has lost six pounds in 7 days. I'm so happy for her. My husband is lingering at 22 lbs loss. He's at a stall that is really frustrating him. I feel bad because I know how disappointing it is to be ina  stall. Chances are pretty good I'm not going to be below 200 for new years but I'm not giving up. I will get there eventually. 7.6 more pounds to be below 200. that's not bad.

a Little disappointed

Dec 08, 2016

No loss again today blah. I want to be below 200 so bad I can taste it and I'm at a stand still right now. I'm so bummed. I'm just sticking to it and trying not to lose my mind while I wait it out. Today I'm having bacon for breakfast, baked cheesy cauliflower for lunch and hamburger for dinner wrapped in lettuce. I'm going to have to go to the store and get some more cheese sticks. I'm out. I love cheese sticks. They are my turn to when I need a snack or something.

No Loss, No Problem

Dec 07, 2016

I woke up today same as yesterday. No problem because now I know I will see more weight come off eventually. Today I'm going to do eggs for breakfast with salsa. Lunch I will have cottage cheese and pineapple. For dinner I'm not sure what I'm having. I have to defrost something. I was going to have italian sausage today again but I didn't like it yesterday. It didn't set well with my tummy. Maybe I'll have a burger with a lettuce bun. I have to buy some veggies I have hummus to dip them in but I'm out of the veggies. OH I can make the baked cauliflower today. I think I'll do that it sounds good. It's dipped in heavy whipping cream with spices and baked. That sounds good to me. I will eat that with a burger and hummus. I can't wait till tomorrow to weigh myself again. I'm starting my day off right drinking water. My mom is eating like this too and I believe she's losing weight but she wants to wait a week to weigh herself. I can't wait to see her weight. I had an atkins fudge brownie yesterday it was pretty good. I could only eat half of it at a time because it was so sweet. Who would have thought that something could be too sweet for me? lol. I would have never believed it.

No Loss Today

Dec 06, 2016

I'm not surprised at all. I lost two days in a row I was not expecting to lose today. I'm exactly 208.4 Has a beautiful ring to it doesn't it? Imagine how wonderful it will sound when I get below 200. My mom has lost 3 lbs in 2 days doing this and I'm so p roud of her. My husband hasn't weighed again since his 22 lb loss. I'm so glad we are all doing this. It's so much easier than I expected. I don't know what I was so afraid of to try it. When I had my surgery it was difficult because my husband was still eating the same junk that got me fat in the first place. Him doing this with me makes it so much easier. It's not even a struggle with him following the same food guide. My son still eats junk in front of us but he hides it so we aren't tempted to steal any and when he's eating it it doesn't bother me at all.
