Well that didn't last long

I give up. I'm gaining and losing the same pound over and over. Fuck this noise, I'm tired of starving myself for nothing.

I have to find a different plan that SB I think.  Dieting sucks. 

Hrm.

Well, I seem to be stuck at 204. It's a wee bit early for a plateau don't you think??

What the hell is up with the dates on here?

Don't listen to EP -- they're dirty little liars -- it's 630ish pm on January 1. 

Happy New Year (dammit I can't drink)

Also had a sugar free york peppermint patty, but only one this time lol 

Oh! And an iced coffee because I was craving a drink that had some damned calories. This was skim milk, starbucks instant decaff coffee, davinci sf marshmallow syrup, and ice. Would be better with Kahlua though.......... 

P1D3 Waka waka

I'm in a weird-ass mood today. Probably lightheaded from lack of sustenance 

I'll edit with an update later. 

Blarg (aka P1D3)

Like a Yo Yo

Weeeeeeeeeeeell it's been since February since I got on here, and frankly, I'm pretty impressed with myself that I "only" got back up to 220 from my 179. Pathetic, I know. 

BUT. My fat ass has gotten back on the wagon (yeah, those holiday photos are a real eye-opener huh??).

Today is P1D2 of South Beach (shut up, I hear you assholes groaning about me restarting SB again and I don't wanna hear it lol)

I have no idea what my "official" start weight was because I had one of those dial scales that was a total bitch to read, then it got something caught in it and said I was 260something (I about shit a brick before I realized there was no fucking way I'd have fit in the pants I was wearing had I bean 260+), so who knows?

I bought a digital scale today and it said 212. We'll see what it is first thing in the morning, since that's when I usually weight.

SO.

Update on my eating -- obviously I've done a lot of it (hardy har har), but while I've still got the soy allergy (no peanuts, beans, or soy, though soybean oil seems to be okay in moderation), I can again eat dairy (in severe moderation, and still needs to be low lactose), and all that shit.

My tongue piercing (see my last post) TOTALLY threw me off of South Beach and I pretty much said fuck all and stopped it because it took almost two damned weeks before I stopped wanting to cry every time I moved my tongue.  It looks awesome though 

So Mr. Kitty agreed to do a "weight loss plan" with me, though he's SO not doing South Beach Phase 1. Bastard refuses to even try. But, I've pretty much put him on SBP2 here at home, and then at work, he's (supposedly) "eating better" -- choosing less fried foods, no desserts, less cheese/toppings on stuff, etc.  Eh, whatever works. He's a man -- he can just cut out soda for a week and lose 30lbs or something (don't y'all jump me I'm fully aware that I'm exaggerating.)

So that's it. South Beach again. We went grocery shopping today and got a CRAPTON of Phase 1 food. I'm thirsty (haven't quite had my "daily water intake" today) and I feel so hungry that I could eat my left leg, which is RIDICULOUS because with the sheer volume of food I've eaten today, I shouldn't be able to move. I guess it's part psychological (I feel deprived because there's so much I "can't have") and part may actually be my body going "what the fuck is this? she's eating more than once a day? and it's *gasp* vegetables and shit???".  

Either way, I'll be SO DAMNED GLAD to get off of Phase 1. I'm already planning on having an apple, though I can't have peanut butter any more dammit. 

Food today:

Handful of lunch meat.

Small hamburger patty. IDK, maybe 1/4 lb? I think it was slightly less but I eyeballed it. If I don't lose weight I'll buy a food scale, until then -- eyeball. 

Big ass salad from Subway and a whole packet of dressing (NAUGHTY!) - lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, onions, black olives, cucumber and a good sized handful of what I assume to be full fat cheese. 

Bunless cheeseburger: two leaves of romaine, some mustard, tiny bit of chopped onion, tiny bit (far less than the 1/4 cup serving) 2% cheddar, tiny bit of low sugar ketchup, and a miniscule burger patty (think the size of the ones you get at McDonalds or something -- it was wittle) .

2 gulps of 2% milk. 

Jello SF "mousse" - caramel cream - it's SF but IDK if "technically" it's phase 1. Good as hell tho. 

1 piece SF Russel Stover strawberry cream candy -- not as good as the "real thing" by far, but still pretty damned tasty. 

Not nearly enough water. 

Physically - Achy. It's cold though, so my joints typically ache when it's cold.  Headache -- probably from not enough carbs and nowhere near enough water. 

Emotionally - Cranky. Mainly because my dumb ass started SB BEFORE going to the grocery store, so we didn't have much at all to choose from. Hence the "handful of lunch meat" for breakfast.  

Till next time!

Well it's been a hot minute

Let's fast way the fuck forward from the last post -- I completed the elimination diet over the course of several months and discovered I am ALLERGIC to milk protein, and SENSITIVE to soy, peanuts, legumes, and possibly gluten (though I'm still not sure it's gluten or the fact that most products that have gluten also have milk/soy/whatever in them).

Elimination Diet Day ??

So with FIL being in the hospital all weekend, I haven't been able to blog as much.

Elimination Diet Day 3

My FIL is in the hospital -- he had a heart catherization and a stint put in (and no, I'm not actually clear on what all that means) and he'll be in the ICU for several days.
