2017 OCT 22 -- Day 64

How does my weight keep going up? What is it that I'm doing? Is the oil losing its effectiveness? I just switched back to taking oil after I get home from work rather than eating first and then taking the oil, so maybe I'm still adjusting.

Also, I feel like I have a lot of treasures to give the porcelain fairy. It's been a few days since my last visit to drop off such treasures. I'm not just upset that I gained, but I'm upset that I'm back up to 380 lbs. I was under 380 lbs, and now I'm back to 380 lbs. This is awful!

Starting weight: 415 lbs
Current weight: 380 lbs ⇧ 
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 359 lbs

 I can't believe this. I started this month (this 60-day period) at 377.4 lbs.  I somehow gained 2.6 lbs in the past 3 days. That's a rate of about .65 lbs gained per day. I cannot continue to re-gain at this rate. So I am starving myself again. I had a Monster Energy Zero Ultra tonight, and that's it. It is 0 calories. I will not eat when I get home. I will take my oil, and that's it. This had better work!

Discouraging graph:


My husband, on the other hand, is still down. He is at 233.2 lbs. He was at 233 lbs even yesterday, so he's up a bit today, but it's only by .2 lbs, so that's practically nothing. He's doing really well. I'm happy for him. I'm jealous of him, but I'm happy for him.

2017 AUG 30 -- Day 11

I weighed myself before work again tonight. I like these lower numbers. I'm pretty sure this is due to not eating during sleep for at least 6 hours. Whatever the case, I'll take it! Yay! Low number! Starting weight:  415 lbs Current weight:  406.4 lbs  ⇩  Long-term Goal:  145 lbs Short-term Goal:  399 lbs I'm at work. It's 10:30 PM. I've been feeling the hungry growly monster in my tummy, but I've been ignoring him... until now. I'm eating my sandwich. According to the book, you are only supposed to feel hungry when you're body is below its set-point. Is my set point higher than 406.4 lbs? Wow! I need to find out how to lower that a lot faster. How can I make it 145 lbs? LOL. I know the answer to this. It gradually becomes lower over time; I must be patient. The trend is still downward on the whole, but right now it is still well above the first measurement I took at 404.8 the day I got my scale. It's going down, and I saw 406.4 lbs today ...

2017 SEP 1 -- Day 13

I splurged a bit on high-set-point food this weekend. I have regrets. I also have a rather large up-blip as a result. I ate pizza with my favorite toppings which is a very familiar flavor making it a more fattening food according to Seth's theory. Flavor recognition makes food more fattening, basically, because there are very strong flavor-calorie associations. Foods with very familiar flavors are called "ditto" foods, and ditto foods must be avoided. It's possible to change the flavor of the food so it is not a ditto food, but I didn't do that. The result: Starting weight:  415 lbs Current weight:  410.4 lbs  ⇧   Long-term Goal:  145 lbs Short-term Goal:  399 lbs This seems like a huge setback, but I'm going to ignore it for now and just keep truckin'. I'm sure I can drop it again in a few days as I did before. The graph of my numbers since starting is very reassuring. I now know how to regain control. I simply have to remember to use m...

2017 NOV 7 -- Day 80

Woo! 374 lbs! Now we're cookin' with oil! Hehe. I know that's not the saying, but it fits better than "now we're cookin' with gas." I also don't want to have my body associated with gas. LOL My plans are really coming together for Thanksgiving. We do ours the Sunday before the actual holiday so that our friends don't have to worry about fitting our event into their schedules with their own families. We don't really have family. It's just me and my husband. Our family all lives in other states, and we don't have kids or anything. We're free spirits, and our holiday traditions reflect that. Starting weight:  415 lbs Current weight:  374  lbs  ⇩  Long-term Goal:  145 lbs Short-term Goal:  359 lbs Thanksgiving is more of a glorified game night anyhow. We all sit around the giant TVs in our living room and play Jackbox games. It's super fun. My husband also bought the Munchkin board game and a whole bunch of expansions for i...
