Still 121.75. Still.

I restricted so hard yesterday. I was freaking dizzy most of the night and this morning. Only an hour after I ate my normal breakfast and I'm feeling famished again. That is how little I ate yesterday. I'm at a loss for what to do, eat more, eat less, run more, work out harder? What the fuck does my body want!? I honestly thought I'd wake up to 120 on the scale today. It's a little frustrating.Edited: So I added up my calories for yesterday and it was pretty normal actually - just the cookie and the bits of candy added up calorie-wise, even though they weren't doing anything for my body energy-wise.

Staying strong on my 30 Day Shred. Finished day 8 today. 2 more and I'll be done with level 1. Then I'll have a rest day before starting level 2. I figured out that if I did this I'd finish level 3 on the same day I leave to visit the BF. When I get back from visiting him I have 3 weeks before Jamaica. So I'm going to have to hit it hard at that point.

So, no binges this weekend! I did have a little bit of candy when I went dancing on Sunday, but I kept it pretty minimal. Not nearly as much as I would have had if I'd bought it and eaten it alone. It's kind of embarrassing to keep hitting the candy bowl or food table at these things. So it was easy to keep things light.

However, I think I am going to wait on my manicure for three reasons. First, I don't want getting a reward for being good Thursday to Sunday to be an excuse to binge tonight, Tuesday and/or Wednesday. Second, the cheapest place to get a manicure is smack dab between to places I love to get binge food at - a pharmacy with great candy sales (always 2 for $1 or king size for 89C, or 2 king size for $1.50) which I find hard to resist, and a grocery store with an awesome bakery that does day old donuts for 30c or packages of 2-4 for 60C-$1.50. That's where I really go wrong. The day old donuts (they call them dunkers - you're supposed to soften them in your coffee) don't even taste stale. They are totally fine, because they plastic wrap them the night before anyway. :::Sigh::: I am so hungry right now typing this is making me want donuts. : (

I don't want get my reward and immediately go binge. I also don't want the fact that I lost no weight this weekend to push me into a binge.

To top that off, it's monday, I am so tired, I thought I was going to fall asleep in my car on the way to work.... being tired is always bad when you're on a diet. It makes it harder to feel full for some reason. And I just really don't want to be at work right now.

Being hungry to a point where you feel dizzy is so horrid.. (Ya i know the feeling).. Try to have a huge glass/bottle of cold water around.. Also have some carrot/celery sticks in your purse and/or in the fridge at home to nipple on when it get bad. At home I like to have celery/cucumber combo.. Barely any calories in those. There are also a whole lot of flavoured rice cake with barely any calories that can be a great low cal snack.

Gl hon and try to not think stuff you can't have. Focus on the things you can have. It makes it easier.

oh and I think the WL is actually pretty nice. 6 lbs in 7 days isnt that bad you know. And you are doing great with the no binge week.

This is the point where it's so easy to say screw it. I'm not losing anyways! But don't do it. You will lose. I have had so many WTF moments with my body not responding and as long as I didn't give up it eventually gave in. Keep it up. The empty calorie candy calories are yummy but yeah, they don't do a thing for you energy wise.

I knew that the dance was going to have treats so I purposely didn't eat much on Sunday. I usually don't do that - at work I have my snacks and meals planned out. I also expected there to be more veggies to munch on on Sunday, but I got there late and they were gone!

I wish I could talk myself down from my binges that way! You're my inspiration, chicita.
