Nov. 17, '08, when I weighed in this morning the scale showed 179.2. I'm going to post everything I did on Sunday, Nov 16 to try to just show what I do in a day. I know that Lynne is interested and maybe some others are too. I certainly don't mean to suggest this is the way to maintain. I would also like to say I do not do this every day. I guess I did extra good yesterday because I knew I was going to post it.
7am woke up and drank 4 oz of FlorEssence Gentle Detox for the whole body. This and…

Oct. 10, '08, weighed in at 180.2 pounds this morning. I went to my shiatsu session this morning. I thought it was going to be more like the chiropractor, I guess. It wasn't like that at all. First of I was placed on a massage bed that was heated face down and for half an hour she pushed, grasped, rubbed, pressed and held parts of my whole body starting with the head, then neck, spine, tailbone, arms, fingers and feet and toes. This was done all on top of my clothes. I was told not to wear denim…

Nov. 7, '08, weighed 179.8 this morning. I have decided to weigh myself every two to three days. I didn't think I would like this and it would drive me crazy not knowing, but the only bad part of that is weighing this morning and holding my breath for a big gain.
I saw this ad in my local co-op newspaper about shiatsu and I thought I would call Sally and find out what it is and if it would help my RA. I wrote her an email and described my symptoms and the trouble I've been having with the botto…

Nov. 4, '08, weighed in at 180.4 so 2.4 pounds over LIW. You all better double check my math because I did it in my head again. I'm seriously thinking of doing some serious weight training with a trainer if I can afford it. I want to change my body shape and with aerobics it just makes me a smaller pear shape which is nice but I would like to know what it's like not to be a pear and I feel the only way is with weights. I may be wrong, but I'm going to experiment and see if I could change my shap…

Nov. 3, '08, weigh 181.8 so I'm 1.8 over my LIW. Had too much food on Saturday morning, the day after Halloween. I had two bite size candy cars and two Halloween cupcakes from a church carnival. They were home-made, I'm positive, because the frosting tasted like butter. I couldn't taste that chemical fake frosting taste. The cupcakes were way better than the candy cars. I just wish I could have slowed down to enjoy them even more. I ate both cupcakes back to back really fast, probably within one…

Oct. 30, '08, weighed 179.8 so over my LIW by 1.8. Yesterday I took my brother John out to lunch because he is my collections guy. That's not what he does for a living, he's an accountant, but he's really good at getting the attorneys to pay their bills. Yes, believe it or not, when I bill attorneys for my services as a court reporter sometimes they don't pay me, so I get my brother to collect the money. I have only had to sue 4 attorneys because they still wouldn't pay even after John tried. Is…

Oct. 28, '08, weigh 179.0 so 1 pound over LIW. I'm a little worried about how my husband is doing on p4. He decided to only weigh himself every Friday morning. I asked him last night if he thought he would have a gain this Friday and he didn't think so, but you should see what he's eating. When we went to the wedding on Saturday he ate 4 pieces of chocolate and three pieces of cheese cake. Then on Sunday morning he ate some of a big one pound Hershey's bar that my son won at a Halloween party. I…

Oct. 26, '08, weighed 179.0 so I lost .4 pounds since yesterday and now I'm just 1 pound over LIW. Something is going on here. I don't get what it is. I went to a wedding yesterday and did okay with the meal had a piece of cheese cake, but then I had a lot of drinks last night. I seriously had probably 10 drinks all different kinds and I don't remember bit of the ride home. I have only gotten drunk one other time since I've been married and I don't know why I did that last night. I do remember t…

Oct. 25, '08, I got myself back to the 170s. This morning I weigh 179.4. I lost 1 pound since yesterday. I'm only .6 pounds over my LIW. Tonight I have a wedding to go to so I don't expect to say in the 170s for more than today which is sad. I wish I didn't have to go to this wedding. It's my husband's friend from work, so I wouldn't even be missed if I skipped it. Maybe I could not eat anything like I did when I went to my reunion. I'll try that.

Oct. 24, '08, weighed in this morning and gained .2 pounds so today I'm 180.4. Gosh, will I ever get back to the 170s again? It's been so long since I was there. Oct. 4th was the last day I was in the 170s. Wow, 20 days ago. When I woke up this morning I found a cake pan open on the coffee table downstairs with an empty glass next to it so I know my husband had something last night after I went to bed. I'm sure he waited until the stroke of midnight and then had his first sweets in 61 days. I lo…

Oct. 23, '08, incredibly I weight 180.2 pounds this morning so I lost 1.4 pounds overnight and now I'm 2.2 pounds over my LIW. I think I may have figured out how to maintain my body weight. I understand that everybody's body is different and this may not work for everyone, but I totally ate 6-8 very tiny meals yesterday again and I drank my ACV and took some Blackstrap molasses. I think this combination is just what my body wanted all along and was waiting for it. Since I was out and about yeste…

Oct. 22, '08, today I weighed in at 181.6 so I lost .6 pounds from yesterday and now I'm 3.6 pounds over my LIW. I tried something new yesterday and what I made for lunch in my saute pan I split in half and saved half and ate half. Then about 1 1/2 hours later I went and finished the rest of my lunch. I had lots of teeny, tiny snacks yesterday, and I started drinking apple cider vinegar and I'm kind of shocked that I lost today. I wasn't expecting it. I think with me I just have to start eating…

Oct. 21, '08, today I weighed in at 182.2 so that means I'm 4.2 pounds over LIW. Something happened when I painted my living room. I took three days to do it because with my rheumatoid arthritis I have to do chores in small batches. I think I must be allergic to something in this paint. Is there latex in there? Something in the paint triggered an RA attack and I have been in some pain where I can't type that well because the pain is in both wrists and numerous other places. The pain is also in m…

Oct. 18, '08, well I weighed in at 184.0 pounds this morning so that's a 2.4 pound gain from yesterday and now over LIW by 6 pounds. That's high for me, but I think I know what happened yesterday. I'm going to go run upstairs and get the container of what I ate. Well, I don't have the actual container because it's way down deep in my garbage container and I don't want to get my fingers dirty so I grabbed a similar container from my pantry. It's was a 32 oz organic red pepper and tomato soup stam…

Oct. 17, '08, I weighed in at 181.6 so now I'm over LIW by 3.6 pounds. I gained .6 pounds from yesterday. It's funny how in tune I get with my body. I just knew that today I would have a gain from the train ride and not yesterday. I don't know why my body does that, but I noticed that also on p2. It took two days for the weight to show up if I ate a lot more than I was supposed to. Well, I have less than one week left of p3 and it sure has been fun to blog on here everyday and have such nice peo…

Oct. 16, '08, well, when I weighed in today I stayed the same at 181.0 so I'm still 3.0 pounds over LIW. I don't quite understand why I stayed the same and maybe tomorrow I will have a gain because of what I ate on the train. I will tell you all what I had to eat on the train. First off, it was really nice to hang with my parents. They are fun to be with.
When we got on the train the first course was waiting for us and I had 3 shrimps with cocktail sauce and I ordered one vodka gimlet which is…

Oct. 15, '08, weighed in this morning and lost .2 pounds so now I weigh 181.0 and I'm exactly 3.0 pounds over LIW. Well, I did drink one gallon of water yesterday, BUT I need to do this experiment over again because I did cheat yesterday. I had a flour tortilla with cheese and I had a lick of my knife that had some chocolate on it. I'm sure the chocolate did nothing, but I think that flour tortilla may have stalled something. Who knows? That's why I'm going to do the one gallon of water over aga…

Oct. 14, '08, weighed in at 181.2 so I gained .2 from yesterday and now I'm 3.2 pounds over LIW. I don't think I'm drinking enough water. I hear about people drinking a gallon and I don't even come close. If one gallon of water is 128 oz and I only drank 48 oz yesterday there is a lot of room for improvement. I have drank 16 ounces so far and it's 11:45. I'm going to try to drink more than I did yesterday at least. 128 oz may be too much for me today since I'm starting late. I should have woke u…

Oct. 13, '08, I weighed in at 181.0, so I gained .4 pounds and now am over my LIW by 3.0 pounds. Well, this is a lot better than my last round of p3 on day 11. I was probably over my LIW by 6 or 7 and never got any closer, just kept increasing. I mean I don't know for a fact because like I said I did not record any of that phase. But if I do the numbers in my head when I left here back in March of '07 I weighed 184 and then when I returned 50 some days ago I was 208. That's a lot of weight that…

Oct. 12, '08, I weighed in today at the same weight I was yesterday, 180.6, how strange that is, at p3. That's what I used to do on p2. I guess maybe I did stay the same in past p3s, but I never recorded anything so it wouldn't have registered. Here's what I think I'm going to be doing future-wise: On day 22 I will start p4 and continue p4 until December 30 and 31 and do my two gorge days then and then on Jan 1 I will start p2 again, but ONLY a 20 day round and see if I can't get to 160 which is…
