Super Bowl 2009 -- I weigh less than most NFL Players! WOW!

Feb 01, 2009

I responded to a post last night regarding weighing less than football players. I hadn't even thought of this until I saw that on the message board, but wow, What a revelation!!! For the first Super Bowl in what has to be over 10 years, I can now say that I weigh less than any given player on the offensive line! I don't know how many people actually notice those things (I know it didn't dawn on me until last night), but it's very cool to think that I could be tossed about like a rag doll on that football field instead of being one of the dump truck -sized linebackers!

As for my Super Bowl "feast," I got a fill last Monday, so I'm still doing the liquid thing. I did make some fantastic broccoli and cheese soup (with lowfat Velveeta) which I enjoyed greatly and plan to enjoy again for lunch today. Gotta love those crock pot friendly meals. For my treat, I also made some guacamole that I shared with my grandmother so I wouldn't eat the whole bowl. It was kind of strange eating that with a spoon, but since I can't eat chips or pretzels yet, I really had no other option. Forgot how good that stuff tasted! When I ate it "straight up," I found I couldn't eat as much of it. So the little 1/2 cup that I have left will still probably last me the rest of the week. That's what this is all about, moderation, not total deprivation!

I'm a little annoyed that I can't seem to get the flippin scale to move though. I've been hovering between 180 and 183 since Christmas now. I've been steadily at 180 now though since the fill, but I really just want to break through that 80s barrier! I've started running longer now, 60 minutes is the new norm for me now, up from 45. My calories are still waaay low b/c of the restrictive nature of my post-fill dieting, but dammit, I'm just having a hard time being patient these days.  I know something is going because my pants are starting to fit looser (I'm about to graduate into 10s!!!).
