I avoided food all evening :) Man, that kitchen dance is a hard one to learn, but when you finally get it down, you'll always remember it. (Zen - Thanks for the great idea! I just got your comment on my last post, and I am huddled in my room for the evening, but next time I am kitchen dancing, I will most definitely do a major scrub and disinfecting!) I almost ate a fun-size pack of mini M&Ms, but before I even opened them, I looked up their nutritional information. That little bag packs a whopping 70 cals! I would have guessed only 40! I put those back after finding that out.
As a result, I have the most glorious floaty feeling, like I am not actually in the real world, but suspended above it. And of course my stomach is grumbling with hunger pangs. I was 122lbs. this morning, so I didn't change any from last night, but I feel like tomorrow is my morning :) I haven't actually eaten a proper meal since breakfast of an English muffin at 9:30am, and since that I have had a few pieces of broccoli, ten semi-sweet chocolate chips, one cinnamon-almond wafer thin, and seven jelly beans. I don't know the exact calorie count of that, but I am reasonably sure I am under 500 for the day. Definitely lower than 600 cals, that's for sure! And now I am very hungry, but my body has the whole night to do without food. Lovely :) It's such a nice thought, knowing that as I sleep my body will be using its own fat stores to live off of, since I haven't supplied it with anything useful since 2pm this afternoon.
Also, my stomach felt much better this morning. I will make sure to watch my intake of raw onions and jalapenos next time!! LOL
I really want to thank you guys for all your support and helpful tips! They mean so much :) And I am extremely flattered over how many people look at me as inspirational! You don't realize how much that spurs me on to do better, so I can keep it up for you all. All I need to do when I feel a moment of weakness is think about you lovely ladies, and know that you are out there, expecting me to report on a fabulous day, and how awful it would be to have to tell you I binged and let you all down. It is such a motivator! I love you all :) I don't know what I would do without you.
Well, I am off to a night of peaceful, foodless slumber :)
Love you, Skinnies!

You are very inspirational! The day *I* reach 122 lbs is the day I will be a very, very happy panda! I still have about 20 lbs before I even get there. Keep up the good work making us all jealous of being in the 120's!
ReplyDeleteGreat job today too. Doesn't it feel great to go to bed empty? I've had a hard time resisting today but I've done pretty well. I think its gonna pay off! I'll think about you as I start nodding off in a foodless slumber tonight myself.
Strength is good!
Yay for strength! I hope mine lasts!
Macaroni and cheese is a formidable foe!
:D
peace

ReplyDeleteA little while ago, I began my own little kitchen dance. Then I remembered your post and giggled. I guess I'll take my own advice and do a bit of spring cleaning to turn my burning tummy off for a while.
