I seem to be holding steady at 388.6 lbs from yesterday to today. That's good news, actually. I feel like I overate a bit yesterday. I'm still feeling full right now.
I served a full plate of food -- the amount I used to eat before SLD -- and I was able to eat the vegetables, nibble the meat, and eat a couple of spoonfuls of the macaroni and cheese before I was sated. I didn't stop there, though. I ate a bit more meat -- it was just so good! Then I felt miserable for a few hours.
How on earth did I ever consume so much and think it was not a lot? I'll never know the answer to that riddle.
Starting weight: 415 lbs
Current weight: 388.6 lbs
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 359 lbs
If that wasn't enough, I also had about a 1/2 cup of ice cream. I wanted it. I didn't need it. I felt so gluttonous. Why did I do it? I wasn't hungry. The oil was working. My appetite was suppressed. I just wanted to taste some ice cream. That's where I stopped, but I knew I had consumed many more calories than I needed. It was too late. I was expecting the worst. I was expecting a jump to over 390 lbs! That didn't happen.
Still I wonder, though, will my weight jump tomorrow instead? Only time will tell. I want it to go down. That's what I'm truly hoping for. That's what I expect. I don't plan to eat much of anything when I get home. I will nibble just enough to make sure my vitamins don't make me feel ill.
Also, I have some treasures I need to drop off to the fairy soon. I don't know when they will be ready for delivery, but I'm hoping it's soon. I'm drinking apple juice, and that typically greases the gears pretty well for me.
I'm at work. This is what I've had so far today:
Lunch meat: 90 calories
Cheese: 180 calories
Apple juice: 210 calories
That's the same number of total calories in each of my 2-Tbsp doses of ELOO. So this is on top of the 480 calories of ELOO I drank before coming to work. That's 960 total calories so far for the day. When I get home from work it will be 480 more calories, and then I don't plan to eat anything else. I don't plan to, but I will need a nibble of something so I can take my vitamins. Maybe I can chance it and not nibble on anything. I may be able to stand the slight nausea if it happens.
I'm not mad at my numbers. I'm hoping I can drop lower tomorrow, but even if it goes up, I know it will come back down. There's a kind of comfort in knowing that the weight loss will continue even if I bump up a bit. As I have been doing this for nearly 40 days, there's quite a bit of data showing the evidence of this, and that just boosts my confidence and keeps me motivated.
My graph is generally going in the correct direction, but it's a bumpy downward slide. I can't complain about it too much, though. Any downward slide is a good downward slide, right?
