WOWOWOWOWOW! 9lbs is GREAT!! Keep it goin'!!! Very Happy

ewhetstone on Tue Aug 30, 2011 7:49 pm

I was at 149!! this morning Smile

I lost 10 lbs in 8 days. I just got home from work and was so hungry, I had 6 bite size snickers, a handful of baked potato chips and then I was craving peaches and cottage cheese, I put some in a bowl and had 3 bites and I'm stuffed! I had 5 bites of ham sandwich for lunch. I dont feel like I blew it, I'll just call that my supper! I would love to be at 139 next Mon, Labor Day, that's my next mini goal. Hubby told me when I weigh 120 he'll let me spend $300 on clothes!! Oh yeah baby I'm on fire now!! Wow this post is rambling on and on Laughing

SaltyDog on Wed Aug 31, 2011 1:31 am

Ok, shopping $ would sooooooo do it for me!!!! Congrats on the 10lb loss..that is awesome! It sure does getting to 139 easier to see now, doesn't it?! Very Happy

ewhetstone on Wed Aug 31, 2011 1:02 pm

I went way over my bites yesterday and do not like that stuffed feeling! Today I'm back on and excited to see where it takes me. I'm going to weigh in on Mondays only just so I can be schocked by all the weight lost Surprised

Thanks ladies for the cheers!

ewhetstone on Wed Aug 31, 2011 8:01 pm

So I ate what I wanted to today and I'm disappointed, I feel fat and dont like that feeling. I'm feeling down about it, but will get right back on track. I'm making burrito casserole and strawberry cheesecake for supper but wont eat any because I'm still full.

spryng on Wed Aug 31, 2011 9:08 pm

that is the right attitude to have... just get right back on pan. Can't do anything about your prior meals now so don't beat yourself up about it. We've all been there. For me personally week 2 was the toughest mentally and that is where you are now right? I battled cravings etc even though I wasn't physically hungry the cravings turned into a weird physical sensation and I just wanted to eat! so I did and it passed so hopefully you'll feel it pass soon too and can refocus again. So hang in there, the results will be so worth it and remember this diet isn't for life. Its temporary and fast so stick with it so the faster you can get off of it and back to life enjoying your new body Smile

(that is the mental motivation I give myself too just about everyday) and it works most days Smile

SaltyDog on Thu Sep 01, 2011 12:04 am

Oh my gosh, I'm in week 2 also and it's where I've had the most extra bites! It must be the most challenging week on the plan. Just take it one day at a time, ewhetstone. I saw we just get thru this 2nd week and that means week 3 will be a piece of cake, so to speak!! Very Happy

ewhetstone on Thu Sep 01, 2011 1:21 am

thanks guys, your posts are exactly what I needed, thanks for being here for me! Tomorrow is a new day and I'm ready for it!

spryng on Thu Sep 01, 2011 8:36 pm

How did today go? I'm pulling for ya! Smile

ewhetstone on Fri Sep 02, 2011 12:01 am

Today wasn't perfect but it was way better than yesterday.

L 5 bites steak egg and bagel sandwich
S 10 bites total mashed potatos, chicken and sweet corn
2 bites butterfinger

I'm excited for tomorrow and I'm going to start taking my b12 vitamins

Thanks spryng for keeping me accountable! Very Happy

SaltyDog on Fri Sep 02, 2011 1:19 am

keep it goin'!!!!

shnookie on Fri Sep 02, 2011 8:06 am

That is so true, last night I had pizza for dinner, and I drank water before eating it to make sure I don't eat more than the 5 bites and after 3 bites I was almost full, I eat slowly and try to finish my bites in 15-20 minutes, by the time I had my fifth bite I was stuffed, I did not even finish the slice and it was a small slice Very Happy

spryng on Fri Sep 02, 2011 12:31 pm

yes b vitamins really do make you feel better. I take the daily and it helps my mood and energy levels for sure.

schnookie that is great! its so great to enjoy the foods we love still.. I just love this diet for that.

ewhetstone on Fri Sep 02, 2011 4:01 pm

So it's 12 pm and I have had 10 bites. I guess no more eating for me!

SaltyDog on Fri Sep 02, 2011 7:04 pm

Stay strong!! Even if you gotta take a couple of more bites later today, if you make it some fruit or a veggie, I don't think you'll do any damage!

ewhetstone on Sat Sep 03, 2011 1:31 pm

Yesterday was an epic diet failure! Mad

Today I'm doing the diet perfectly. I'm taking 1 day at a time, so I'll be concentrating on today!

shnookie on Sat Sep 03, 2011 6:03 pm

Good luck with being on track today ewhetstone

SaltyDog on Sat Sep 03, 2011 8:06 pm

We're cheering you on, ewhetstone!!!!! Stay strong!

spryng on Sun Sep 04, 2011 2:49 pm

Hang in there! everyday behind you is one day closer to your goal so keep that in mind, we are moving forward with ya Smile

ewhetstone on Fri Sep 09, 2011 9:24 pm

I ate whatever and whenever I wanted this week! I'm weighing myself tomorrow morning but I'm restarting right now!
After reading all the inspiring posts it just reminded me how good I felt doing 5 bites. The last time I weighed I was at 150 so I'm very curious to see how much I gained the last 7 days!
This will be my format:
B
L
D

This will keep me accountable if I know I have to write everything down for everyone to see!
Thanks everyone for standing there and cheering me on! I'm sincerely touched.

spryng on Fri Sep 09, 2011 9:47 pm

I'm so glad you are back!!! Missed ya! Smile

I'm sure you didn't gain much and most is water retention and not true fat so it will come off in no time and you can pick up where you left off Smile
