So, yes,my little car moved. WOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO. It moved .5 lbs..but it moved and I know it's going to move even more next week. I am OP people!!! I feel in control. I feel good!
I know I am in control b/c last night I hadn't eaten dinner and we were running out the door to a baseball meeting at a fast food place....before I went I went on Dottie's Weight Loss Znne to see what is LOW IN POINTS at CULVER'S. That is some preplanning! Yes, if I would have eaten at home..that would have been better..but that's too much preplanning for me. I have had 2 days of food journaling and I feel better already. I am OP!!!!
Ok-funny side note--Over the weekend , I had no water..starting last night we had no internet or telephone until about 3:30 this afternoon. Is it a sign? Is it the modern day equivalent of the biblical 10 plagues? What's next...will my microwave stop working? Will I lose cell phone service? Will my Diet Pepsi be flat? I am so glad to have the internet back! I was worried I wouldn't get to check in with my astounding .5 lb loss!!
I took Mac for a long walk today and it felt so nice...even if it was chilly and drizzling. I had my ipod , dog and pedometer and was good to go. I know that I shoot for a certain amount of steps a day..but not many of them are aerobic steps. This was brought to my attention inadvertently by Tigerlily, who started a new , very cool walking challenge. Here is the link if anyone would like to join, Tigerlily and the others as we "walk the world". I liked that it was similar to the idea of my virtual pilgrimage...but with 6 cities and with others!!! I am looking forward to it. Will give updates. Thanks Tigerlily, for coming up with it and for inadvertently making me take a closer look at my walking program.
As far as lifestyle habits, I am keeping up with the 15 mins of decluttering a day, logging food,and still need to get lots of water in!! I will bump my daily steps to 5,500. Still need to get a body brush...
One last thing, have any of you "overfibered"? OMG..I guess I ate just a little too much fiber b/c I have been "iregular" for 2 days and my tummy is "talking to me". It's making some odd noises! I need to read up on the correct amounts of fiber because I am not so comfortable.
Well, I hope you are having a wonderful day..or evening. I am going to curl up with a tall glass of prune juice and see what happens.

Go speed racer, go! Congrats on your car moving.
Good for you for planning ahead. We eat out a lot, but I aalllways plan ahead or go places I know well.
Sorry about your gastrointestinal challenges. Remember, this too shall pass. (Hee hee hee)
great loss..trust me..its those half pounds etc that add up! that is pretty much how I got to where I am at, so I think you are doing so well! glad you have water again!
Great loss; great attitude! You're driving that car with finesse!:)
Good for you!
I have overfibered (is that a real word?) and it's a terrible thing. It wasn't even on purpose, I for some reason ate a lot of high fiber foods for a couple of days 2 summers ago.
The pain was brutal! I had some fennel tea to help soothe it but it took another couple of days to clear me up. I actually went to the clinic it hurt so bad!
Hope you'll feel better. The key is to drink TONS of water but you need to find a happy medium as to how much you take in.
Yay for the moving car! Congratulations! :-)
I haven't had that problem with the fiber but I know others have had. I have IBS so it actually tends to keep me pretty even and regular which is really really NICE.

Way to go on the loss!! ;)
Sounds like you are doing great. A loss is a loss, right :) Keep up the great work!
I was smiling the entire time I read your blog - happy for your loss, intrigued by the "walk the world" and curious about 15 minutes a day of de-cluttering. That sounds like one I should tackle in my own office.
Keep up the good work. You inspire me.
