#daily weight

[losingitinjersey]

This is why I have to blog at night, I can’t properly forecast what my day will bring! Yesterday, I wrote that I was going to spend the day binging Younger, wrong.  I ended up trying on every single outfit I think I might be able to fit into. AND I FIT INTO SO MANY.  

I’ll save you from seeing the 16+ pictures I took of all the things that fit, but at some point I’ll maybe/hopefully/one day leave my house for something other than a walk or pediatrician appointment and can document the outfits for you then.  As my bff reassured me, this isn’t going to last forever and I will have lots of opportunities to dress up again in the future. Just need to keep up the progress so I can always wear all the things!

Throughout this process I also cleared out space on my garment rack by removing all the maternity and larger sizes I was wearing when I went back to work after maternity leave. 

It’s so fun wearing new old clothes again! Though, while I’m riding this high, there’s also plenty of clothes I have yet to fit into. I was giving Kevin a tour of the closet showing him which section I can fit into now, what’s too big, what will be waiting for me at 180 and at 160. Can’t believe I’m talking like those weights are possible but they definitely feel within grasp!

Day 2

Weight this morning was 84.6kg so I’ve gone down 0.4kg.

Not the best but I’ve decided this time I’ll be happy with any progress as long as I lose even 0.1kg a day.

It wasn’t great because I ended up eating 1190cal which goes above my limit but I’ll make up for it tomorrow by having max 810 cal tomorrow.

1.9.19

Birthday Post!

Best gift? 10 pounds lost his week! Twenty whole pounds gone total since 12.27.18! I rock, Rock!

Obligatory weigh-in pic:

Birthday lunch: Vegan bowl Moe's

Vegan Prozac cupcake from Muddy's Bakery

And a birthday selfie! (damn, brows ... wtf?)

Bonus: Awkward gifts sent to work from ex (this is confusing to me ...)

No daily goals today. Just working, then relaxing and celebrating making it another year. This one will be one for the books, I just know it!

New year, new me!

I was tagged by @glitteraftermidnight (thank you for including me!) for an SDS! I'm new to all of this, so if YOU (yes, you!) come across this and you're feeling yourself, please post a selfie and tag me in it. I want to come by and tell you how amazing you are ...

You're beautiful, boos.

Fluctuations, Oh My

Update on the daily weigh-ins, and oh boy are fluctuations real! 

7/8: 288.4 7/9: Not home in the morning. No weigh in. 7/10: 287.8 7/11: 287.8 7/12: 286.6 7/13: 287.6 7/14: 289.4 7/15: 287.4

I knew that the 289.4 yesterday had to be a major fluctuation. It’s not really possible to pack on 3 real pounds in 2 days, but my body was like “LOL! I’M FREAKING OUT!” A good food day yesterday put things back down in the usual range today. So far so good with food today, too!

Looking at the beginning (7/8) to ~a week later (today), I’m down a pound. That’s my weekly goal, so it’s a WIN!

It has been a lovely week with my boss out of town on vacation. I’ve been enjoying taking my work effort and productivity down a notch and making the most of this work from home lifestyle we’ve all been forced into.  Don’t get me wrong, I’m still plenty busy - there’s just slightly less pressure this week and it’s been glorious.  But, of course, like any good week it’s gone by quickly but I’m definitely welcoming Friday and the weekend with open arms. 

Also, huge news, I actually did it! After paying for cable TV for over a year of barely any use I finally got up the courage to make the call and cut the cord.  I’m surprised how easy it was, I expected they’d fight me more or guilt me into keeping the service.  Thankfully, I stuck to my guns and declined their generous $10 in discounts they offered and instead went with a monthly savings of $137.  Cha-ching!  

Please enjoy the song that struck my fancy this morning and my Hitler daughter.

Such a boring day compared to yesterday’s adventure ;) Not really, it was a quality Tuesday. 

Lately, I’ve started drinking my coffee black in order to save 50 calories in the morning. Today, I bumped that up even more by skipping butter in my eggs (I saved all the butter to go on top of the waffle!).  Excited to see if these small changes add up to any results or at least I can redistribute the calories for more exciting things like extra Lily’s at night or for homemade keto ice cream. 

Check out erp sitting up on her own!  This is the longest, most stable she’s been in this position so far. Sure I sat her down this way, but she stayed and didn’t flop over immediately! So proud of her!

As erp shared her dinner with me tonight, I had to take off and stain treat my white shirt and decided to replace it a sweatshirt, my first wearing of one all year I think?!  Definitely hangs a bit different than the last time I wore it (can’t find a picture on my blog, but I was 8 months pregnant).  Loving how everything is fitting lately!

Another NSV is my engagement ring keeps slipping diamond down around my finger. My hands swell and shrink like crazy so it’s not a huge win, but this is the first time in awhile my ring has been this loose.  Cha-cha-cha-changes!

Oh, if only every week included a three day work break!  Some highlights from these last few days include:

Getting in 10 miles (total) on Saturday and Sunday morning.

Finishing the last of my baby gift thank you cards!!  Which has lifted such a huge weight off me I don’t know what to do with myself without that hanging over my head anymore! 

Cleaned up the entire house including reorganizing my office, filing piles of papers where I found unopened Christmas cards - whoops.

Did five loads of laundry AND put everything away as soon as the loads were finished (whaaaat)

Watched Parasite with Kevin - it was nothing like I anticipated but we were positively engrossed and really enjoyed it.  

Wore my favorite skirt on Independence Day, surprised that I could even squeeze myself into it (it’s a size 14!) then after wearing it all day - including during my lifts because why can’t you do deads and bench in a skirt? - I went to go change erp before my Zoom date with friends only to find she got poo all over the skirt from the short walk up to the nursery :( thankfully it washed out and looks good as old.  

Also, yes, I got dressed up with bright red lips to sit at home.

Found this incredibly outdated and racist book that was gifted to me by my MIL. Guaranteed she never opened to book to see the stories inside and it was just a prop for my literary themed baby shower but still. Was shocked when I read some of the rhymes. 

Ate all the keto eats!

Managed to have an overall loss even with all the fluctuations - wooooo!

And now, to do nothing for the rest of the day :)

Hey, ho, let’s go!
