Food baby.

Food babies.

My food baby is pregnant with a food baby.

Urgh, I may need to delay my first December weigh-in a few days so this can work it's way out of my system.

Reflections

Lowest number: 132.6
Morning after a giant carby meal including dessert: 134

Approximately 34"-28.5-30"-38"

I think that makes most of this weight loss Officially Real (not the 5 lb of water and tummy rubbish you can gain and lose in a few days of messing around).

I had another Moment today. I drove to Community College's Wealthy Suburb campus to leave something in Hummingbird's mailbox. This is the campus where I took my spring classes, and there is a wall in the bathroom that is entirely high-quality mirror. I spent Jan through May scrutinizing my reflection every time I walked past... and today I saw a different person there.

Just another night at the theater...

I shall have to tell the full story via laptop wifi sometime soon. Abbreviated version: Painter Guy, 24, nailed Costume Girl's little sister, 16. Actor Guy, who is nearly engaged to Costume Girl, pulled a knife on Painter Guy. On campus. 45 minutes before the closing night performance.

I drove Painter Guy to the hospital to have his hand fixed.

I held Costume Girl while she cried backstage during Act I.

I didn't murder Tech Girl who said Little Sister was "asking for it." I did, however, tell her "It is the adult's responsibility not to have sex with a child."

I don't know how we didn't end up on the eleven o'clock news.

?!

135?¿? I woke up 4 hours early for a work day, weighed in at 137, drank a glass of water, went back to bed. Woke up needing to pee like crazy, weighed again: 135. I dunno if it's real but I can hope...

We went to Arby's during theater stuff tonight and I managed to take off 3/4 of my roast beef sandwich bun without anyone noticing and wtfing WOO again!

November

Today's weight: 140. Rage baby in process of aboriting (having a sort-of-period).

Year in review:

January 1: 157
February 1: 153
March 1: 145
April 1: 139
May 1: 137
June 1: 137
July 1: 138
August 1: 138
September 1: 136
October 1: 138
November 1: 140
December goal: 130
NY Goal: 127 (30 pounds lost in 2013)


I am starting low refined carbohydrate today. No hard and fast rules at this point. Eat enough to stay on my feet for work. Minimize carbs. Will probably aim for 100 grams per day, not counting foods that are already very low carb, i.e. most veggies and nuts. No calorie goal, because I'm usually too lazy to count calories anyway. Will try to increase intake of healthy/antiinflammatory fats like walnuts, coconut, avocado.

I want to get back into strength training for muscle retention AND so I'm strong enough to care for my enormous baby nephew when I see him again! 16 plus pounds, good golly.

I miss running terribly, but I may need to take a month or two without doing high-impact exercise to get this inflammation (which is MUCH better since camping, strangely) under control.
