Last Chance for Skinny

Hello Gals, Today I weighed in at 184 lbs.  And that is before I went to the bathroom.  Now I probably weigh 182lbs.  That's the thing about this diet.  You go after every meal, and if you pick...you go after every pick.  Going to the bathroom makes you feel good, kind of light and definitely less of a fat pig.  

I realize that I won't loose 3 lbs. every day, but I think that it is possible to loose 3 lbs. every week.  Just like they tell you to do in Weight Watchers(R).  Right?  Yes I've been on Weight Watchers(R) too, which by the way is just like Deal A Meal(R)....Oh that was a good one.  But, after the novelty wore off I started dealing myself extra hands.  I would just put the card back in the pile and make believe that I was winning.  It's just like cheating in a game of solitaire...and I know every one of you has cheated in a game of solitaire.  That's why Deal A Meal(R) doesn't work for many of us.  We are all a bunch of cheaters!

So back to success, I guess you are all wondering what I ate to loose 3 lbs.  I started the morning off with 1 of "Aunt Marlene's Breakfast Bars".  I will post her recipe if anyone requests it.  Then around mid morning I had a small glass of juice.  For lunch I ate two pieces of dark brown toast with homemade guacamole, that I had made in the morning.  Nice right?  Bread and all.  After cleaning the kitchen,  I took a little nap...I always take a nap.  I took my dogs for a walk and made black bean soup.  (Another one of Aunt Mar's recipes).  I picked throughout the afternoon on another breakfast bar, a banana, and two more pieces of toast with vegan butter.  Hey don't complain, it's better than no butter at all.  And then I ate my black bean soup.  

So there you go.  I don't know how many calories I ate, but I would guess it was more than 1200.  Which, according to the diet gurus is what you are supposed to stay under if you want to shed the lbs.  without exercising.  

One thing that I didn't do is... I didn't turn on the TV.  I love TV but I think it makes me really lazy, and fat.  So today I'm going to try to stay away from the "Plug in Drug" and stay active.  The chores are piling up as they always do in a fat girls house.  Because we are lazy and just use any excuse imaginable not to move.  So today I'm going to move.  Signed, Last Chance for Skinny.
