Starting Now

This is a weight loss support group.

I will no longer be going into drama and such.

If you guys want to follow suit, I hope so. This whole challenge is getting out of hand, so I'm going to go back to talking about weight loss, successes and struggles, and whatever else is related.

If it's not about your weight loss journey, I'm not commenting on it - and I will delete anything that is not related about weight loss.

So, after this little dotted line, it's all about weight loss again.

Yesterday's Weigh In: 289
Calorie Count: Not sure, low 3000s?

We went to a wedding last night, and had a blast. Good times by all, so I tried to keep my calories REAL low during the day (like 700), because wedding food and free open bar isn't a great calorie consumption tool.

That being said, I had fettucine alfredo, breaded pork chops and ham - but at least in one reasonable serving. I also had a salad and 2 bites of Erin's dessert, which honestly, I could have done without. No real way to measure the calories accurately, so I'm not going to bother trying.

That being said, today's going to be squeaky clean. I had egg whites and mushroom omelet with 2 slices of ham for breakfast (and 2 bites of bagel) and rye toast (dry), and that's probably going to be all I see until dinner tonight. Drinking lots of water, being active - and that's about it for the day.

So, I'm back on the horse, and making the right decision. The leg is still killing me at times, but I'm seeing great improvements - I'm playing softball on Monday, so I'll be going full steam for the July challenge.

Catch ya'll soon!

Eat.
More.
Food.

You have to keep something in your body to keep the metabo-fires burning. Eating a 400 calorie breakfast, then nothing for 8 hours isn't good. Grab an apple. Eat some carrots. Have something as a snack to keep you moving.

Just my .02.

I second that emotion.

That's awesome that you weighed in at 189. I also agree with Kevin, however, my new philosophy is that it's ok to be a little hungry here and there if you can handle it.

Billy, I *WISH* I weighed in at 189 yesterday, but I'm pretty happy with 289 ;)

I did have a nectarine about 20 minutes ago, and then I'm off to mow the lawn and hit the gym. I'll probably find a snack bar or something in the middle, and then have a sensible dinner (that sounds like a slim fast phrase).
