Rachel116's Journal, 05 January 2013

Well, I was hoping for 220's by Monday and what a wonderful surprise I got today when I stepped on the scales and saw 229.8. I was actually just hoping for the same weight instead of having gained being as I ended up having HORRIBLE amounts of alcohol consumption last night. I mixed Wyler's Light Strawberry Lemonade and Everclear. The water has no carbs and I have discovered that it has no effect on my weight. Everclear contains no carbs just the alcohol that the body has to burn first. I was hoping that would minimize any chases of gaining but had no expectation of losing any weight. So needless to say it was a very pleasant surprise to see 229.8 this morning.

Tonight we had Spinach Lasagna for supper and I always look forward to that. It is absolutely delicious and everyone in the house loves it.

Angie-It's so hard to believe. I look in the mirror and can't see anything but I know there are changes. When I reach my 225 goal (not too far away) then I will take a new photo and get you to help me with the side by side. Dorothy---OH MY GOODNESS.I unfortunately remember every little thing that happens. I just have less control/"give a damn" at the time its happening. I didn't eat anything until supper today and I haven't felt super wonderful either. LOTS of water was in order for today! LOL I would never judge you. Sounds like you were(and probably still are) fun to be around.

Yay, congrats on reaching 229! I too had a little too much vodka and diet squirt Friday night and did lose wight the next day, but probably dehydrated. So today I had gained it back, but will keep on working at it. I almost never drink and that night was worth it since I got out of the house and finally had some fun. But I won't drink as much again. Although you can't see any changes yet, they are happening and I'm sure people will begin to notice soon!

Rachel that is WONDERFUL! I knew you would be in the 220's in no time. I think I can tell the most change when I stand in front of the mirror and look at my side profile...before I weigh so there are no clothes. I can tell then. Also when I am lying in bed on my back...my tummy is flatter and doesnt feel like my tummy...lol. so proud of you!

Congratulations, Rachel! I attended a party and had a bit too much to drink, as well.. we don't need the Holidays to have a fun party, do we? I didn't get drunk, just dehydrated... and I lost a pound of water today. I'll just keep plugging along, and you guys do the same! Love to all of my potentially thin friends! [One day and one bite at a time!] I've got to get these next five pounds off and get into the 150's if it KILLS ME! Love and encouragement to all! Thanks for the words of encouragement from all of you! I will do better about keeping in touch... but I've been so busy with work!
