I got on the scale today and......

9 years ago

I've always been lucky as if I gained 10 lbs my body seemed to self regulate - I'd lose my appetite and the weight would quickly be gone. Doesn't seem to be working now! Guess I'm going to have to do a real diet thingie in January to lose 15-20 lbs. Bummer.

Jill - you reminded me that a split up or divorce always caused me to lose weight. Hmmm - I wonder...oh nevermind.

Doesn't seem worth it to start a relationship now just to end it so I can lose weight. Guess your diet won't work for me

Gotta love butter.

Gotta love butter in your coffee if it's bullet proof.

I lost a lot back in 2007 (74 lbs?) but it was probably a tad too much. Took about 5 months. I was extreme on the plan and walking every day about 3 miles.

Had kicked back into diet mode the beginning of this year and was doing ok for a while until I got too busy with other things and lost my focus. Had to cook for someone else too which is annoying.

But now I'm single again and need to clean myself up a bit. I clean up nice.

I probably would have maintained just fine if I'd kept up the walking. Too much of a foodie to ever go total lc forever.

I never really diet.

I keep my body fat between 10% and 13% year round. I'm not competing so I'm cool being pudgy. When April hits I drop to single digits for summer of between 8% and 9%.

But, I've been a natural bodybuilder for decades. I'll be 52 on Jan 6th.

If I notice I'm getting to smooth looking then I'll cut the raisins out of my plain oatmeal and remove my banana snack 1 hour before my 3rd feeding at about 1pm, which I have to go to in 2 minutes.

I only make slight adjustments. I eat super clean all year round. You don't have to get into shape if you don't get out of shape first.

Consistency is the key.

Down 2 more pounds already!

Starting to think about going out for New Years Eve.

Been a really long time since I've been out. Even longer for being out and single.

Close friends have been telling me to go out. Since like 2 months ago already.

Facing some internal struggles now.

Part of me says "Go for it Moxie!" - Moxie is my new name for my 'bad evil alter ego' side.

Part of me says, "Jill, you missed the boat. Suck it up and do what you always do on New Years Eve which is stay home and out of trouble and just go to sleep by 10pm. You will wake up safe at home and ready for what the New Year brings!"

Hmmm. Feeling a bit paralyzed. My actual actions of what I do for this New Years Eve could be a make or break of my actions and attitudes for the whole next year.

I don't want to drive anywhere and the place I'm thinking to go to is just a mile walk up the road. I'd be swinging it solo as I have no close friends where I am right now. I really don't know anyone here.

Hmmm. Again, Hmmm.

Ok, lets run a survey.

Sure! Here it is:

Should Jill or um 'Moxie' go out on New Years Eve? | My random test site for themes, plugins, and more!

When I was younger this wouldn't have even been a question...

Yep, that's your sub-consciousness mind trying to protect you. There are times to listen to that, this is not one of them.

Hmmm. Feeling a bit paralyzed.

That's the feeling you get when you are new to challenging your comfort zones.

My actual actions of what I do for this New Years Eve could be a make or break of my actions and attitudes for the whole next year.

Probably your reactions to this might influence your attitudes for a bit, but let's see what we can do...

"Rig the game so you can win it."

I would be thinking:

"How can I look at this situation in the best possible light?"

"What would or could be the upsides of going?"

I probably would enjoy myself.

It would give me an opportunity to expand my comfort zone a bit.

It will give me an opportunity to exercise a little bit of courage.

I could practice my people skills with little downside.

You get the idea.

So, my goal would be to go out and enjoy myself and enjoy the personal challenge.

(Easy goal, easy game to win.)

Yes, you should go. You will be proud of your self on New Years day.

Have fun. Contact me if you need to. I'll be at the Snuggery... without a date.

Jus' a thought for any of you with older scales with a needle dial.

There is a trick you can play like settin' your alarm early to make extra time.

If you set the scales on the floor, angled some way to the right, then the dial will not reach as far an' you can pretend to be lighter than you are till you can figure how to stop stuffin' yourself stoopid.

First, that made me cry.

Second, "a high note"? I assumed after your hysterectomy (where they remove your history) everything you said would be with a high note.

That's probably her being selfish.

Clothing size drops when you lose weight meaning you can get more in one wash load.

You losing weight just means less laundry for her to have to do.

Means less food she needs to cook.

Means you might be around longer to support her habits - what ever those are.

You have to think Claude - what's in it for her?

Of course she'd be more comfortable.

Jill; I was actually thinking she would be more comfortable when, while I'm sleeping, I roll over on top of her.

And....if I lost the weight, she might want to have sex with me...which means more laundry.

And she doesn't wash my clothes, after I wear them. The city makes us burn them. I assume that's pretty common, right?

From the beginning of 2015 til now I've lost around 50 pounds.

All I did was change my eating habits. I no longer eat at regulated meal times. If I am hungry I eat, if I'm not hungry I don't. And I define 'hungry' as exactly that, not just thinking it's maybe time to feed my face.

I also only eat non-GMO, certified organic food.

Why did I decide to do this? Because I had progressed from being gluten sensitive to full blown celiac disease and I had come to the conclusion that enough was enough. I wasn't going to consume any more of the chemical enhanced crap. Neither am I going to spend the rest of my life a slave to the pharmaceutical companies.

Just out of curiosity, are you familiar with Dr Wallach of "Dead Doctor's Don't Lie" fame?

I hear his radio show sometimes on weekends and he ties a lot of rather serious health issues

I vote you go out, at least for a while.

Catch some air as it swooshes from 2015 to 2016.

You can still make it home later for relaxo.

Whatever you choose, have a cool time.

Thanks

Oooh ooh - you inspired another superheroine.

Mebbe I should strike out as Silk Woman.

At 11.59pm every night she incinerates her underwear with a flamethrower, releasin' clouds of vapor into the atmosphere.

Then, she must sleep inside her cocoon, weavin' the next day's skimpos from excess fluids secreted by her superhuman cerebellum.

She senses the world's global warmin' plight, an' knows instinctively what molecules are required to help the planet survive.

Durin' the night, consdensed molecular forms grow outta her body in silkily immodest underwear combinations.

Worn casually beneath her duck suit (cos I figure her alter ego got a day job doin' promo work in a store), her underwear heralds the world's salvation in pre-oxidized form.

All she gotta do is bloom from brain to silky to flames.

Yeah - this is way cooler than Fart Girl.

Thanks

Somewhere buried deep in a storage unit in a land where Big Foot has been spotted and statues erected of him, is a tape of a radio program I created while in broadcast school.

On this tape is the story of Sugar Plum Bob.

Sugar Plum Bob is a super hero, and his special power is that he can see through underwear. I myself played the role of Wonder Bra, and we fought crime against the Evil Curley Cue - who would hide big guns and bombs and bad things in his underwear.

Like any evil villian, his two sidekicks were Lip and Stick.

I went through the trouble to even have a professionally recorded song about Sugar Plum Bob (which I sang).

It will be a true miracle if I can find that tape, and a much bigger one if it still plays.

Thanks

Some do ok with the low cal thing.

I am an avid low carber myself - well when I'm looking to actually lose.

Fat is your friend.

But eventually I get to a point where I really want some great waffles with loads of real maple syrup to just soak them in.

This time when I get to that goal weight I will really have to take some time to figure out how to manage those indulgences without putting it all gradually back on again.

btw, down another lb! would have been more but that new years thing did cause some havoc.

Thanks
