I had a EUREKA (or DUH) moment and realized I don't have to eat 1200 calories EVERY day, but as an average for the week. So! This week I ate up to 1400 calories on my 2 heavy workout days (adding a protein bar and some extra veggies and allowing myself a little cheese) and 900-1100 on the other 5 days of the week. Lo and behold three pounds melted off this week. I'm so excited because I was ravenous on my workout days and just 200 extra calories have made all the difference. Yay!

My weight loss has been incredibly slow so I'm doing Whole30 for 6 weeks (led by my personal trainer). It's helped nudge my weight down a bit but I guess I will never be a fast loser. I'm telling myself that's a good thing -- maybe I'll have less loose skin to contend with!

I've got a nasty cold and I am lacking in any motivation to eat what I should or exercise. I just want to eat TOAST and drink HOT CHOCOLATE dammit! I am forcing myself to sip some water right now while I sulk.

I went out to eat over the holiday weekend and ended up barfing up my dinner. It was so strange, I don't feel like I ate too much or too fast but something about my meal (boiled shrimp) just seemed off. It was horribly embarrassing (I did make it to the bathroom before vomiting but there was a line and everyone heard) and I burst blood vessels in my face from the pressure of vomiting. Just thinking about shrimp now is enough to make me sick to my stomach...blech.

Hi, Kristina! Your surgery date was same as mine. Hope you're doing well!

Ah, thanks for reaching out!
I'm doing pretty good. Days are good and bad. Yesterday was miserable because I had a migraine that just made everything hurt worse. In fact, I've had migraines since Thursday. So far none today.
I'm walking a lot, but it's hard to get all the water and food in that I need.
How are you doing?

I'm so sorry about the migraine, I had one in the hospital and it was just misery on top of misery. I hope you're on the mend from them. I agree that the water and food are hard to get in. I've started journaling everything in a notebook so I can hopefully keep better track of it and remind myself of what I need to do.
I'm still a little sore but so much better than Wednesday. Heading to the movies this afternoon and really excited to get out of the house! Take care!
