Ding Dong Dietbet is Dead

Thoughts on Dietbet


Ok it isn't dead, but my bet is over. I made my goal and I can finally relax and stop weighing myself like a heroin addict looking for my next hit...Blah.

I was 361.8 this morning.  with clothes it was 362.6, .1 over my goal weight.  BOOOO clothes, then I realized you don't have to weigh in with clothes, just take the picture so you're not flashing people. Off went everything and I was back to 361.86.  It was verified in 10 min and I didn't have to workout or kill myself to try and lose a half a pound or whatever.

I'm down 15.8 lbs since Dec 30 and my habits are way better than a month ago.  I don't think I would have been as focused without dietbet.

Towards the end, once I hit my goal.  I hated the obsession with getting on the scale.  Even if I ate well I wanted to make sure I was under goal and didn't have any issues.

So for right now. I'm going to just go it alone and if I fall off the wagon I'll do another dietbet.

Stalled Weight Loss 


So I've been 361.8 for a few days.  I think there are a few issues.  I 'm on antibiotics for my strep.  I just finished the last pill this morning.  Wednesday I had a my mini cheat (fruit juice and stuff) and yesterday I had an apple (to help with constipation, blah).  I haven't gained,  but I can tell from my ankles I'm retaining water.  I also haven't been drinking my apple cider vinegar since I'm on the antibiotics.  I'm ok with it since I know I've been doing the right thing. I'm giving myself till Feb 8th to relax a little, force myself to not get on the scale and just kind of enjoy life.  My major banned foods are in place, but I am going out alot next week and for at least one of those outing I want to drink and maybe have pizza.

Feb 8th I am back on the wagon and  focus until March 8th.

Working Out/ Fitness Glo.

I did another workout last night.  I hated it.  ugh. It felt like when I would do group fitness in the gym and just felt like it was totally beyond me and I just didn't like the exercies.  I finished it, but there was alot of walking and jogging in place of whatever stuff the instructor was doing.   What got me through it, It's only 30 min.  I think I checked the time twice, I rarely do that which says how much I didn't like it.  Even with all of that I am still happy with fitness glow.  There are enough options that I don't feel like I have to do that particular workout again.

I did a 10 min stretch after which I loved.

oh and NSV.  I can sit cross legged.  I know its weird, but I can't remember the last time I was able to do it.

1lb

Well this week end been a little wacky. I didn't eat anything I planned to eat. I didn't over eat and I think I made good choices all week. I only exercised once this week which I'm not entirely happy with, but I'm ok with that too. Back at it tomorrow (Saturday). So anyway. I know I haven't had the big 3-4 weight loss I had been having so I jumped on the scale. I'm down a pound( to 333) . Its nice because I haven't gained, but I would like to be firmly in the 320s by the end of the month. I have managed to stick to my lent goals with the exception of the 2 beef meals I've had. I will admit Applebees has been calling and it was rough avoiding the scallops with bacon but I'm ok. Funny who I can ignore the Ben and Jerry's and not the scallops. I wonder if it will get easier. Happy that I am not forming any new attachments with food. I do have a craving for hooter, but I think their salads (if you can call it that, more like salad dressi...

335 Woo HOO

Posted on 3fc Well all week I have been praying for a 2lb (would put me at 339) loss which would put me in to the 330s. Weigh-in isn't until wed, but i got on the scale anyway....335...woo hoo. Make me much closer to the size I wanna be to buy summer clothes much more attainable. Well I can say it here. Next weigh in is March 14th. I would really like to be at 329 by then. My Official weigh-in isn't until Wednesday so I'll be playing the game with the scale until Wednesday morning. Also I am waiting for the time I get on the scale and nothing happens......blah...but trying to stay positive. Something else people would day the weight is falling off, but I worked this crap off. LOL

Ignoring people at work/ catching up on excercise

Well not that I look back since i last blogged I haven't been doing well, but not horrible either. I didn't work out Sun-Tues. and I have been out twice so i have one more time to go out this month and I know I am going to blow that so we'll see. I think the problem is I went away for the weekend and I wasn't carting food with me and I can't say I made good choices while I was away so I'll have to deal with that. Now that I am back home though I am doing better. I cooked last night really good curry chicken and broccoli. I ate the whole pot but I think I am only at most at 2000 for the day. I had a smartone and a danish and only water. I weight myself in eight days and really hoping I am under 325. Blah. I did Prevention 3-2-1 work out today for 35 min. I didn't do any of the ab stuff since getting up and down on the floor is a pain. I have a pain in my left knee but it seems to be better. I am 15 min from 200 min for the week which would put me back...
