Flavor, Flavor Flavor

Added later: I skimmed my blog looking for something else and realized I've had the whole tastless much epiphany before (is it an epiphany if you had it before and forgot?) anyway...hopefully I won't forget this time.

I wonder if I'll ever get to the point with IE where i am not learning something. Well my body went sort of on strike the last few days and I gave in to its demands. I just couldn't make myself eat another tasteless whole wheat English muffin. So I bought Cinnamon raisin ones. Yes they have more calories and yes they probably have some evil chemical :devil:

in them, but they taste better and I am tired of tasteless dreck. Also I didn't eat my usual lean cuisine/Healthy choice prepackages rubber chicken. I treated myself to Indian and loved it. I have no idea who many calories I had yesterday :yikes:

....probably quite alot, but I can tell today I am back in the drivers seat.
I also had a donut and milk for breakfast

So what have we learned boys and girls :chin:

...I like good food. I would rather eat a little fattening good food :cbg:

, than alot non fattening tasteless dreck:barf:

Only worked out for 30 min today, first time in a long while it happened :shrug:

, but considering i didn't work out at all I'm happy. Will try and make every effort to get in the other 30 min. I am wondering where my lose will be for next week, but as long as I haven't gained I'll be ok.

Something else. Some people say don't put to much hope in the scale :goodscale

and maybe measuring is better, but the scale is what I have been used to and really I know myself. I can lose 30 inches, but if the scale doesn't come up with the right number I could care less about the inches.

On a completely unrelated note. My and the guy I am dating seem to be out of the bad patch. Funny I had to treat him like dirt for it to happen. I started turning my phone off and he got the message...wacky :frypan:

Quick Recap

Well I am ashamed it has been this long since I posted. I got down to 306 after much not eating and too much exercising, but after the trip to Jamaica I haven't gotten back in the groove of things. I think alot of that has to do with issues with the Ex. Those may not be settled, but i am not as emotionally invested as I won't was. With IE I was able to stay at 320 or under. I am 312 now, and focused once again. I am not nearly as strict as I was, which might also explain why I haven't gotten under 300. Anyway....Thats where I am at now. Will try and write more later.

Finding Joy in the Little Changes

So it's taken me 2 months to lose 4 lbs. I know people are are gonna ready that and be like dude you suck. There are a couple of things to note: When I started 2 months ago I was 359 and then the week after I went up to 363. I checked my spreadsheet and I haven't been 355 or lower in 4 years. I've been struggling in the 360s for YEARS !!!!!! I've been in the 350s for a couple of weeks with a mostly steady decline I'm not struggling with eating, and working out is doable. In terms of non scale victories. I can eat salad. It isn't the end of the world and honestly when I'm out and about it takes the weight of having to figure out what to eat. I don't feel the need to eat EVERYTHING on my plate. I don't eat what I don't want. ( We will ignore the cream puff I had yesterday) I have more energy. I don't come home and veg doing nothing until bed time. I mean I do it sometimes, but if I need to do something I am more lik...

Avoiding Vacation Sticker Shock and Rebounding

Back from Miami. I have come to realize women are awesome and can form great bonds, but they can also be full of drama for no reason. I had a great time and definitely want to go back. The "rules" for my trip away were no pasta, rice or potoatoes. I think I had rice or potatoes with most of my meals. I didn't go overboard, no binging or huge portions. Then there was the drinking. I haven't really drank in a while...so I didn't go overboard, but I drank my fair share. Drinks at Wet Willies in Miami My ankles were not the biggest I've seen, but definitely swollen. I decided when I got back no scale. I don't need that kind of negativity in my life. When I got back it was a struggle to get up and workout. It almost felt like the first couple of weeks. Also doing things that had gotten easier felt like a big of a struggle. Tuesday I got on the scale and I was 359.0. I am stupidly happy I was in the 350s. I'm als...
