2018 JUL 28 -- Day 108

I have lost a little bit of weight from yesterday to today, but I'm still not too happy. I am about three pounds heavier than where I should be right now. I know it's because food inevitably causes weight gain, and breaking my fast two days a week will invariably make my weight bounce back a bit. While I have to accept it, I don't have to like it.

Starting weight: 401 lbs
Current weight: 339 lbs ⇩
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 325 lbs

I was feeling a bit yuck from a combination of my fight with the porcelain fairy and the stress I've been under. I decided that eating would be a good idea today, so I had a salad with a nice, fat-infused Italian dressing I had made and some feta cheese and a few cherry tomatoes. It was really tasty.

I also ate about an ounce or two of pork rinds. You'd be surprised at how many rinds are in a single ounce. They are a bit difficult to weight, though. I had quite a handful of them. Likely, it was two handfuls, actually. I offset the protein in them by having the fatty dressing in my salad.

I'm hoping that the salad greens will help me have better experiences when visiting the porcelain fairy in the future. I am also drinking a cup of coffee to see if I can get any help there. My husband was not enjoying the spinach leaves in the spring mix salad greens we had been getting, so we made a change to romaine and iceberg lettuces.

I think I may want to go back to spring mix or, specifically, spinach, and maybe add some kale to see how I can improve things for myself going forward. I really need to work on improving things. I am not feeling too well these days, and I'm not too sure why that is. Is it just stress?

I'm sick and tired of feeling sick and tired graph:

I have been gone for a while, but I have not given up. And today I have exciting news to report! I have officially lost 100 lbs! Yes. From my highest weight ever recorded of 425 lbs, I have dropped to under 325 lbs. I can't believe it! I've come so far, and I am looking forward to being a normal-sized human by this time next year. I changed my short-term goal weight to 299 lbs because I want to get under 300 lbs next. I still can't imagine it, but I'm almost there! Starting weight: 401 lbs Current weight: 322.2 lbs ⇩ Long-term Goal: 145 lbs Short-term Goal: 299 lbs I'm more of a carnivore now than doing keto. So that has changed. I stalled in my weight loss for nearly 4 months as evidenced by the graphs on my graphs page. So I cut out the salads and a lot of dairy. As soon as I did that, my weight started falling off again. I call it "keto-vore," though, because I still like to consume olives and use coconut oil and coconut cream, etc. Bu

This keeps getting better and better and better! I'm too excited for words! 402 lbs! Can you believe it? I'm sure you can, but I can't. All methods of losing weight I have ever tried -- and there have been many -- have failed. With Shangri-la , I literally haven't changed anything except for taking the 2 tbsp of oil twice a day, and my weight is dropping. Sure, the oil regimen makes me eat very little, but even when practically starving myself before SLD, I never dropped weight. It also made me ravenous and gain weight from the inevitable binge that followed! This truly is the "magic pill" diet. A no-calorie-counting, eat-anything-you-want, exercise-free diet that actually works! It couldn't be any easier than this unless I had a magic wand to make the fat disappear in one flick of the wrist. I tell my husband my weight whenever I take a new measurement, and I'm very excited when it goes down like this. I'm excited quite often. He doesn'

OMG! 375.2 lbs! This is the lowest ever!!! Wow. I can't even tell you how exciting it is to see 375 lbs on the scale. Most people would be, like, "that's still super heavy, though." I know. I know it is, but you don't understand! I've been over 400 lbs for so, so, very long! I'm almost 25 lbs under the 400-lb mark. Imagine you've been trying to lose that last 10 lbs that just wont budge, and then all of a sudden it's gone. That's the closest thing I can equate to this feeling. Starting weight: 415 lbs Current weight: 375.2 lbs ⇩ Long-term Goal: 145 lbs Short-term Goal: 359 lbs How much do I love down-blips? All of it. All of the much. Think about this. It's a loss of almost 40 lbs. That's, like, 4 10-lb bowling balls. Try carrying 4 10-lb bowling balls. One is heavy enough! I use a 10-lb ball. I know how heavy that sucker is! And let me tell you, losing the equivalent weight of 4 of those: wow! I'm also having
