No Change But..

No change since the last post. I was taking 2 tbs oil once a day in the afternoon. The past 2 days I've had NO oil and I DO have more appetite! I plan on taking the oil today again. Little disappointed no more weight lost but I won't give-up yet.

Through Thanksgiving I did well. I had one meal and didn't even finish what was on my plate. I also didn't put so much on my plate from the start. I was surprised by this. I was also able to get away with just a sliver of pumpkin pie.

Soon I will be baking cookies and candies for Christmas, a true test.

Day 48-50

Weight 153-154

My weight has been going up and down but staying at 153. I KNOW this is due to a messed up eating schedule mostly due to AF and partly due to a cold. You know, feed a cold starve a fever. I have been hungry at night even though I increased my eating during the day. For awhile I was only eating 1 meal and a snack per day. I was feeling well while eating that way and would like to get back there.

I'm still quite sure at this point the SL diet will get me to my goal. I feel this to be a temporary set back.

Day 45-47

Still 153

Funny thing is, my husband FINALLY mentioned how I look better! 3 pounds up and he is noticing. I told him that I was waiting to see when he would notice. I still didn't tell him about the oil. That will wait till I'm down at least another 10 pounds.

My eating has been way messed up since getting the monthly. I've been craving junk food and even made homemade chocolate chip cookies for the "family" :-) I tasted the batter and had 1 cookie the day I made them and 1 the next day. I have really been able to control pigging out on that kid of thing.

I still think the 3 pound gain is water retention. My ankles have a swollen feeling. I think a couple more days and I will be down.

I have also been playing around with time of taking the oil. Yesterday, I took it once (2 Tbsp) in the later afternoon because I seem to want to pick at night.

We'll see how it goes
