I finally got down to 169.6. I think the soup was the issue. I think even the noodles had too much sodium. I didn’t have any soup yesterday. I had some Doritos this morning for breakfast but I got so involved in my book I didn’t stop to read until 10. It had been about 20 hours since I legit ate. But I wasn’t feeling too much hunger. I got a pretzel dog and a small cheese fries from Sonic. Then I got involved in my book again and I haven’t eaten since 10:45. I’m just forgetting to eat today because I’m distracted. But I have down that I need to eat 3 hard boiled eggs and a weight watchers TV dinner. I have logged in 1,190 calories for the day. Which I know is too low.

I feel fine physically but I think my move is stressing me out so I’m not hungry.

I cooked a veggie casserole this morning. I also cooked Pad Thai with vegetables. Those have been my meals today along with some beans and rice. I need some animal protein, so I might have a turkey wrap tonight. I feel like I had too many carbs today. I had lots of noodles today. I was craving it. The good news is I've been keeping busy around the house.

Today I got an iced latte and another drink from Dunkin Donuts. It was 500 calories total. I had 3 rice cakes close to 10. Lunch at 11 was a can of Hormel ham. I had a little pack of Planters peanuts and a caffeine free regular Coke around 12:45. I got involved with a new book and I didn’t put it down until I realized it getting late. I had a couple hard boiled eggs and a caffeine free Coke Zero for dinner. I didn’t actually have a hot meal today. I try to eat one hot meal a day. My calories were 1,280. I was trying to go up. I don’t think the quality of what I ate was necessarily good. 650 calories in drinks. But I ate protein for both lunch and dinner. Peanuts have some protein too.

I lifted a ton of heavy stuff today. I also made tons and tons of trips up the stairs getting ready to move and have carpets put in. So I moved around a lot.

I woke up at 1:30AM and I really needed to eat. So I had the yolk of a hard boiled egg because I couldn’t peel it for some reason and I was about to pass out from not eating. I also had a little bag of Lays chips. Then I got coffee and another drink from Dunkin Donuts around 7. If I can get down to the kitchen I’m going to have 2 eggs and a pack of Planters peanuts for lunch. Dinner will be 2 pieces of cheese pizza. 1,285 calories today. I wanted some steamed vegetables but I don’t want the house to smell bad when the workers are over.

I had a chicken breast and some cheesy potatoes for a late lunch yesterday. Also a biscuit and a candy bar. Then I slept through dinner which was carry out pizza. I weighed myself this morning and I was 171.6. Not bad. I was expecting 173. I don’t think I ate that much yesterday. I had a couple pieces of pizza and some fries from last night at 1AM. Then I had a chicken thigh and 2 rice cakes for lunch. I had a soft pretzel from Sams Club around 3. I probably won’t eat for the rest of the day. I have 1,413 calories down. Although the pizza was at 1AM. So I may actually lose weight tommorow.

I had some ketchup cheetos, a cookie dough protein bar, and a pink velvet iced latte for breakfast. My mom always did say I had an iron stomach. I plan on having a couple eggs for lunch and then 2 cups of a mashed purple sweet potato for dinner. I also had a coffee Coke. I have down 1,188. So I need to add something to make it to my goal.

Yay, i finally registered a loss! Just 3 lbs. 260. Ive started exercising on my tiny bike peddler, its really more of a pusher. When i start it hardly budges an inch and i have it on the lowest resistance, but by the end of the hour we are both warmed up. Im not quite breaking a sweat yet. I am eating 2 meals a day, plus natures bakery brownies. Im not really awake for 3 meals. I guess im kinda doing intermittent fasting, cuz i eat between 3 and 8pm? Trying to concentrate on beans, veg, canned fish, soup / pasta, potatoes, fruit. And coffee! Oh and peppermint tea, whuch is supposed to help with digestion.

I've been ill today. I haven't eaten much. I've been trying to hydrate with soups, tea, coffee and water. I'm hungry now but I'm not sure what I'll have. Maybe chicken noodle soup.

This morning I had a cookie dough protein bar, a coffee with Coke, and a bowl of dark chocolate protein oatmeal for breakfast. I just had a sumo orange now. Lunch will be a dragon fruit and a Weight Watchers breakfast TV dinner. Dinner will be 3 hard boiled eggs and 3 cups of a purple sweet potato.

Weight steady, yay. Exercising-biking every other day - i am too pooped out the intervening day. Last night i tried making a menu plan for the next month, based on the staples i have on hand.

I rewatched Hi-carb hannah's youtube 8 month old video. I heard it differently now. She also advocates the half-whatever, half-veggie plate. The example she shows, the main part is already half veggie, but whatever!

I forgot to eat a 3rd hard boiled egg yesterday. I also didn’t eat the sweet potato. So it was more like 900 something calories yesterday. So far today I’ve had a cookie dough protein bar and a can of overstuffed Chef Boyardee ravioli. I need to eat the sweet potato tonight since they will go bad and are expensive. I had a couple drinks so I am at 1,136 for today. Not sure if I’ll add in anything or not.

I feel really bad. I've gained all the weight back that I lost this month. I don't understand it. I wonder if I had too much sodium from all the soups I've been eating. I haven't really gone crazy on anything except one day with smoothies. I just don't know what to do anymore.

Today I had a protein bar and a coffee Coke. Then I went to Taco Bell and got 2 loaded nacho tacos, and a soft beef taco. Dinner will be a bag of Birds Eye vegetables and 2 hard boiled eggs. 1,170 calories for the day.

I was losing weight until I increased my Effexor. I think that is what caused the weight gain. I will talk to my provider about it. I hope she will see me soon to do something about it rather than making me wait until my next appointment.

I’ve been taking my geodon at normal times and also switching up other meds. I’ve been hungry these last couple of days but I will gladly gain 15 pounds (and that’s saying a lot) just to have my pre March 2020 stable self back. I’ve been so unstable as a result of meds prescribed last March.

I lost 3 pounds. I'm just up and down. I wish I had a steady weight loss. I'm changing my diet as much as possible. I quit buying the foods I love. I'm not sure what else I'm supposed to do. I'm not physically capable of exercise. I guess just let it go. I hear you're supposed to accept where you are before you can make any changes.

I’ve actually lost 2 pounds since yesterday. So I’m 171. I don’t know why I lost weight, because I was so hungry yesterday. But I know Saturday night I had a ton of water. So maybe yesterday’s weight was just water.

Today I had an iced latte and another drink from Dunkin Donuts. Then I had a chocolate rice cake with chocolate peanut butter for breakfast. Lunch will be 3 cups of purple sweet potato, dinner will be a Weight Watchers TV dinner. I’m going to have some Almond breeze vanilla honey milk for a snack tonight.

About 1,270 calories today.

I lost 2 more pounds. It's coming off now that I've cut back on the pasta. I had some noodles this morning but it was portion controlled. And I make sure to have fruit or vegetables at every meal.
