Oh, they are the worst. I was..unprepared, to say the least. My coworker had a good laugh. I'm kind of hoping that I can be down to 280 by the time I go to my neurology appointment on Monday, so I can show him that I am making my damned best effort to get my weight down so that my sleeping problems hopefully can correct themselves.

Today was a near excellent day of eating, I think. I could be wrong. I know that my carbs need to come from fruits and veggies more, but it's a process. Breakfast: NNW Whey Protein Skim Milk Lunch: 3 String Cheese (I just really wasn't feeling all that hungry.) Dinner: Cajun Turkey and Swiss Wrap Snacks: Special K Chocolate Crisps Fiber One bar (Only healthy-ish thing in the vending machine after my workout. Will remember to bring something to the gym with me.) Muscle Milk Light Totals: 146 Protein 100 Carbs 54 Fats

Bahaha! I love the nurse's reaction to your "woooo!" That's hilarious. Next time you should insist on taking pictures of the scale, and then ask her to pose with you. She'll be so confused and it will be good.

Today's eating was a bit off, I fear, due to the fact that we were celebrating a friend's birthday, so I don't have complete totals. I drank only Vodka and Tonics tonight, so that didn't derail me completely. Back on the horse, so to speak, tomorrow.

NewsGunkie posted:last night's sushi boat Sup, sushi last night buddy! Just realize that you're breaking you're hampering your progress when you do it and don't shrink away from the fact, and only do it rarely, and you'll be fine in my experience. Taking ownership means taking ownership of your mistakes, too! Also, there's diet-friendly sushi out there if you aren't doing low-carb! I like salmon rolls and the like for that. They aren't going to be anything like a tempura-fried eel roll or anything but you also don't have to mope about them the next day

I feel hypocritical saying this but ... don't beat yourself up too much Things like this are part of life and especially part of having a social life which is an all-important human function. Now I'm not saying that you should just go "screw it" and drink / eat whatever you want on a "just because" basis but if we always "shouldn't!" ourselves, it just makes us more likely to fail and be really down on ourselves. In saying that, I have a lot of issues around "deserving" things (mostly not deserving them actually) so I'm really not one to give advice  You're doing great ... keep it up

 On a semi-weird side note...is it normal to have your sex drive come back in a big way after losing some weight? Because holy poo poo. I just assumed it was because I was too busy and just not interested anymore. Yeah, that's er...not the case.
