347

So, I have only lost 6 lbs in the last 4 weeks. The only thing that is keeping form losing my shit altogether is the fact that my bike comes in sometime this week. Nothing major, just s single speed cruiser, but maybe it will help make a difference.
I still have 5 weeks before my birthday (the halfway point) and I still have the goal to hit of 331lbs ... so 16 lbs to go.

official weigh in - 347

7 in a month

so this time last month I was at 360 ... I am now at 353 ... which means I'm not even losing 2 lbs a week... grrrr... I understand the body slows it weight loss down eventually ... but after only a 1/4 of the loss... give me a fucking break. I still have 153 lbs to go ... at the rate i have slowed down to ... damn near 2 years.
Weight loss is weight loss and I shouldn't complain... but I am... and it is frustrating as hell.

fat people no like seesaws... lol

So this past weekend was a pain in the arse.. lol
As we know form the last post, Saturday was a no loss kind of official weigh in (358). Then Sunday happens, and I wake up to a 3 lb drop ...355 ... yay ...  then it's off to Beef O'Brady's for the superbowl  and I was bad... well.. not really, I was 14 calories over goal  .. and if that's my idea of bad, I won't complain... lol This morning tho I woke up to the scale being mean again. lol  back up to 360 .... grrrrr...
Get home form work and back down to 356. talk about toying with my emotions... lol
We will see where it all leads.
today's calorie count 1592

No change

So today is official weigh in day and i weighed in at the same exact amount that I weighed in last week. Which means, last week was a lesser loss than normal and this week was no loss ... grrrr.
while I am annoyed beyond all  get out, I will wait to see what happens next week, before i get pissed. lol
On a more upbeat note, I took a walk for the first time in almost a month thursday. It probably wasn't the smartest thing I had done since I was getting over some sort of 24 hour bug, and had no breathe to start off with, let alone all the wheezing I was doing by the end of the walk.It felt like I had smoked a carton of cigs before the walk.
today's weigh in 358 ... again
calorie count for the day 1566

new chair

I am sitting in my new chair as I am typing... and let me tell you, I may never get up. Talk about comfy. great deal too, Staples, normally $149, got it today for $59. Hel Yes!
And other good news ... my hip is not hurting (as bad) ... well it aches, but nothing that would stop me from walking, so IF it feels the same tomorrow, I just might go for a walk again.. yay. oh, damn... I think I might be sick, I just said yay to going for a walk. You health nuts have contaminated me .... grrrrr.

seriously, I decided to switch back to wearing the boots to the kitchen instead of the crocs and my hip has not been "blown out" for the last couple days like it had been for  the last couple weeks. Of course that means my heels will be in constant pain again, but I got used to that over the years.

Basically it comes down to decisions ... do I accept the pain the heels or pain in the hip. At least the pain in the heels doesn't keep me from walking.

I was kinda bad today on the calorie count... it happens.. I still stayed under goal, but over my norm. lol
I made home made fajitas at Mom's tonight and had more than I should. OK.. and there was flan. can you blame me.. FLAN!
weigh this morning.. 358 (yeah yeah, not moving.. grrr.. lol)
calorie count - 2261

goals and milestones revised

Talking with Wayne at dinner tonight and I realized I have added goals and milestones for myself but have not updates the info in here... so here goes
399 - done
374 - done
357 - grrrr... still a week away. lol this is the 1/4 mark
331  by April 15th - My birthday and sixth month on new lifestyle
309 - 100 lbs gone
304- 1/2 mark
286 - leave morbid obesity and get into obese
214 - leave obese and get into overweight
200 - goal weight (subject to change once I am there)

So as of right now, I have 11 weeks to lose 26 lbs. even if I drop to only 2 lbs a week, that will be 22 lbs, close ... oh so close. lol
todays weigh in was 258 dead even.. grrr... lol
calorie count for the day 1629

frustrated

Today was a little frustrating. Knowing I was so close to a major milestone, yet to fall short by 1 lousy lb. grrrr...

I wanted to be at 52 lbs gone today which would be a 1/4 of my total goal gone ... but I was at 51 lbs gone, so even if I hit that extra pound tomorrow, official weigh in won't be til next saturday. 

So official weigh in - 358

calorie count for the day ( it's so early since I have to go to work tonight) 1451 ... it looks like I am trying to force that last pound off by eating  less ... not true. I thought I ate a lot today until I put everything into MyFitnessPal, apparently I thought wrong. lol
