losing the girls...
Saturday, January 16th 2010
So I have come to the realization that my girls are getting smaller.This isn't really a complaint, persay. One of my own personal rewards I had planned for after I had reached my goal weight was a breast reduction.
My breasts were not ginormous by any menas, but they were cumbersome and, to throw all eloquence out the window... kinda droopy.
Now I can run, do yoga and wear regular blouses without having to be creative with safety pins and double sided tape. Love it.
BUT....
I will survive... !!!

I did it!!!I broke through the plateau!!!
I had to work really hard this past week changing my exercise routine, eating fewer calories, eating better foods, and focusing my energy and motivation.
I actually found adding more fat to my diet helped this week. Being vegan I am alway on the lower side with regard to recommended daily intake with fat and I found having a bit of cashew butter, for example, helped me feel fuller longer.
I can't tell you how anxious I am to get ...

I don't know why but the past few days I have been SO HUNGRY... or at least I can't keep my mind off eating which is so annoying!I am trying to get more to drink in order to combat "fake" hunger... but it doesn't seem to help.

I've been trying to eat an apple h...

The last few days have been somewhat of a pity party with regard to having realized I hit a plateau...Slowly but surely I am getting through it though.
Since I started CK I have been taking pictures of myself in my underwear once a month. One front shot and one profile shot. Sometimes going back to those pictures can give a lot of motivation...
Against my bettter judgement, I took another picture this morning, even though my last picture was only 3 weeks ago and I haven't lost ...
Ok, I admit it, I've hit a plateau.

Grrr, arrgh, RAH, boo! hmpf...
Ok, I've got out the anger.
Phew... now it's time to get back to work.
I won't lie... I am extremely discouraged that the scale hasn't budged more than a pound in the past 3 weeks... but I won't lose the faith. I'm going to keep sticking with it and make a few changes here and there and hopefully get back to my 1.5-2 lbs/week weight loss I've been enjoying.
