Yes I have but not in the way you might think. Yes, I have gained some weight back since doing this (my last post was SEPTEMBER 2011!! Ugh!), but not much. I was 258 and now am 262 - not too bad considering that it is January. That means I made it through the holidays gaining 4 pounds. Granted, i have lost a couple of pounds within the past two weeks or so, but not many. MAYBE 4, if that. The "bad girl" is how I have been losing it. No, I have not gone anorexic or bulimic, and I feel fine so it is not that bad no matter what anyone tells me. Basically, I am eating once a day. Becky will say how horrible this is but i really REALLY like it. If I get really hungry during the day, I will eat. Like today, I was staving this morning so I ate and then I ate dinner. But most days, I can go until dinner without wanting anything at all. Then when dinner comes, I don't eat a crap-ton like I used to. Although, I eat what I want. This is one way I know of to snap my body back into wanting smaller meals. I was doing this when Chris and I started dating and I looked GREAT (to me anyway). So, I did this for a while and then when I started eating more meals a day, they were much smaller. that is my intent. This is not a long term plan - just s short term "snap my stomach back into the smaller size so I can eat less" mode.
So, Becky, no lecture about how I need to eat at least 1200 calories (I probably get about that each day with my dinner anyway).
This year I have so much to work towards! I have my bonus sister's wedding in June, where I am a part of the wedding so I want to look beautiful. I have New Orleans, as usual, where i want to look boobilicious, and then there is the fabulous Halloween in October where I want to look HOT as HELL.
I only have 21 weeks until the wedding. That is exactly 3 pounds a week to get me to 199. I WANT THAT.
I need t set that in my mind and make it happen. Easy, right?
I figure, as long as you are eating when you are hungry, then it's okay(-ish, but it's not like you need my permission, is it? You won't do anything stupid.). :) Kudos to you for being able to go that long without eating. I wouldn't have as much of a snacking problem if I could do that.
ReplyDeleteAnd I realize I sound very arrogant, phrasing it that way, but I can't think of another way to phrase it at the moment. My brain is still a little fired. :)
