  1. Week 5 OWl

    by , May 25th, 2011 at 06:56 AM
    So stepping on the scale I have to say I was dissappointed to see 153...I was hoping to be under 150 by the end of the month. That leaves three lbs in a little over a week. I have lost 9.5 lbs in one month which when I look at that I'm happy.

    Yesterday I had a small basal cell carcinoma removed. I have too many years in my history of lying in the sun with little or no sunscreen. I'll be the pale woman with the hat sitting in the shade for the rest of my life.

    I ...

    by , May 14th, 2011 at 08:55 AM
    I have posted on here for over a year now my struggle with my emotional eating. I believe that it is the hardest addiction to over come. My life seems so stressful at times. I have been dealing with alot of different issues here lately. My grandkids, in laws, hubby, my mom... the list could go on and on.

    But this blog isnt about the negative stuff today I actually have some great news and needed to post it.

    I have been dealing with my husband and his depression ...

  5. Owl rung 1 day one done

    by , May 9th, 2011 at 06:54 PM
    Was really busy at work today. I started the day by exercising 40 min at the Y then on to work. I got out of work over two hours late. It was a pretty long day but a good day. I was able to stay on plan but need to add in my extra veggies. I am always amazed how much easier it is to say no to the snacks and foods that are not currently part of my diet. I am also surprized that even though I was so late coming home that I wasn't hungry.

    Planning on getting to bed a little early ...

  6. Slow down stopped.

    by , May 9th, 2011 at 12:57 AM (Thin man inside a fat man.)
    After two weeks of only losing 1lb a week, this mornings weigh in was a nice surprise. Down 6lbs!!

    As bidget999 suggested, I added in more carbs from veggies (but still under the 20 gram Induction limit)
    and having read Jimmy Moore's book 'Livin' La Vida Low-Carb' I also drank more water than usual (up from 80oz a day to 160oz).

    Onward and downward!

  8. Letting go takes love

    by , May 3rd, 2011 at 01:05 AM
    To let go does not mean to stop caring,
    it means I can't do it for someone else.
    To let go is not to cut myself off,
    it's the realization I can't control another.
    To let go is not to enable,
    but allow learning from natural consequences.
    To let go is to admit powerlessness, which means
    the outcome is not in my hands.
    To let go is not to try to change or blame another,
    it's to make the most of myself.
    To let go is not to care for,
    but ...

  9. Slowing down

    by , May 2nd, 2011 at 12:25 PM (Thin man inside a fat man.)
    Into my fifteenth week on extended Induction and my weight loss has slowed down over the last four weeks (6lbs, 4lbs, 1lb and 1lb). Having read the board I was expecting this to happen at some point but I'm still surprised that it's happened now. I'm not worried about it at all, but I'm going to be extra vigilant about what I eat from now on. I have a feeling that I'm one of those who have to keep to a very low carb intake so I'm going to back off a bit and see if that helps. I've had to take a ...

  10. I can do this!

    by , April 25th, 2011 at 08:51 AM
    Starting induction. I'm not calling this a restart since it's been such a long time since I truely stayed on the diet. It's been a year since my foot surgery and though I don't have the results that I wanted from it, I am no longer going to use it as an excuse. My foot hurts with every step. I have an appointment in a couple of weeks with the foot doctor to see what my options are. After a breakfast of oppsie, ham, cheese and a glass of water I am off to the YMCA for at least an hour of biking. ...
