I'm afraid I did NOT deserve the green arrow this week, it's been an awful week - for both any weight loss goals, and my poor blood sugar. The kids made two kinds of cookies and left them on the counter...I resisted for three days, and then last night I lost it and ate about ten of them. Yeesh. I weighed in a day early just so I could put an END to this week and start again! So I am grateful to the scale gods for giving me this undeserved "pass" this week - a half pound is still a half pound - and I will repay my debt by displaying exemplary (uh...read...ADULT) behaviour in the next week! I don't foresee any challenges, no dangerous dinners out, and I just finished my click and collect grocery order, which does NOT replace any of the baking ingredients that the kids used up. Sorry guys - until Mom gets a handle on the 4 year old that lives within her, you need to curtail your baking efforts....or do them on the sly and hide the food in your room. We've always had a rule about not leaving food on the coffee table (the dogs will get it). That now extends to the counter (Mom will get it) ;-). Have a beautiful weekend, everyone!

losing 0.7 lb a week
21 June 2016
OOF. This is not going to be a green arrow week...unless I chop off a limb, or something. I'm not quite that desperate to lose the weight, but it's an option. I've been off my stride since Sunday - I think the chocolate cake I made, delicious as it was, reawakened the Mr. Hyde part of me that is INSANE for sugar. Today was very, very bad...and I have successfully made myself quite ill. I'm hoping that by recording this experience (dizzy, nauseous, headachy, and generally GROSS...not to mention GRUMPY) that I will remember that I am now diabetic, and that I simply can't do these binges anymore. I can't imagine what my blood sugar is at the moment, but I'm most definitely spiking. BLECCH. Tomorrow will be a better day, and I will make smarter choices - choices that don't make me sick. I truly hope that everyone here had a more successful day than I did - though I DID, without question, learn something. In psychology, negative reinforcement is a powerful tool - here's to that!

So I have a question - well two, actually. This last weigh in, my bar changed from red to orange. I think this may coincide with my total loss to date being 10% of my body weight, am I right? Also, is there an FAQ page anywhere that answers questions like these, so I don't have to bother the group with silly questions?
I made this chocolate cake tonight that I make - it's freaking dangerous. Good thing I don't make it often, I had two (!) pieces and then promptly turned it over to the teenagers. It'll be gone by morning - which is REALLY a good thing. Teenagers are like walking garburators, bless 'em!

Lovely - arrow still going in the right direction. I find that if I think a little beyond the moment, I do better than when I don't. This cheeseburger might be what I want right now, but in 20 minutes, this grilled chicken salad will make me exactly as full as the burger...and I can stay on track if I eat that. As I lose the weight, too, walking is easier than it was 28 pounds ago. I carried a 14 kg bag of dog food out of the grocery store the other day and reflected that the weight I was balancing on my shoulder used to be on ME. All the time. And it's not easy to cart that kind of weight very far. When I put the dog food in the car, I took a moment to apologize to my knees for doing that to them all this time ;-) People look at me strangely when I have conversations with my joints, but what-ev. Have a beautiful week, all - keep sight of your goals, and thanks for the community that enables me to have this outlet to crow about small victories (or lament setbacks) to gentle ears and understanding minds! <3

losing 2.2 lb a week
11 June 2016
Ah, LOVELY! I manually adjusted my RDI by 300/calories a day two weeks ago, with not much strife and stress to my systems - both physical and mental. While I was fairly militant about keeping under my RDI this week (and didn't exercise at all, I'm afraid), I still didn't deprive myself - two doughnuts for breakfast yesterday (damn office is WAY too close to a Portuguese bakery that makes lemon Bismarcks to freaking DIE for) simply meant that lunch was cucumber and a cup of broth. A pile of grilled veggies with my steak last night instead of the baked potato, making swaps like that. It's really nice to have this kind of (almost) instant reward - and two of my colleagues noticed yesterday that I'm getting "smaller" (their word). Nice when people notice! So now I've lost 25 lbs, which is pretty close to 10% of the body weight I started with. I'll be very interested to see the results of my bloodwork and find out if my sugars have changed. YAY!
