HOLD MY FEET TO THE FIRE! ACCOUNTABILITY WEEKEND EDITIION
Its the Friday, Saturday, Sunday edition folks!
Accountability Mission: No Mercy and No Excuses
I can eat what I want and never have to worry about diet and exercise and my attitude towards food.
Sadly, some of us wls folks lead the charge in perpetuating the stereotype of the fat lazy glutton who found a way to literally have his cake and eat it too. We've aproached wls and malabsorption with a plan to keep doing what we have been doing as much as possible. We failed to consider how abnormal what we've been doing really is.
Tell the whole truth and be accountable. Are you more concerned with what and how much you CAN eat than what and how much you SHOULD eat?
Weight loss and life time maintenance:
It is not quick. It is not easy. It is never done. It is possible.
What are you doing today make your possibilities real?
...All are welcome, jump in at anytime.

LV'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
I'm just getting around to updating my tracking. The numbers will not be good because the foods were not good. No meal planning. Prepared processed food. Fast food. Junk food. This describes the last three days.
I need to get back to my routine. Step one, get some food in this house. Evil begets evil. As I write this yo quiero taco bell.

You are struggling through a rough patch. What we both need to figure out is why we abuse ourselves with food, our drug of choice.
Thankfully you are still working out. Imagine if you didn't exercise? I need a wicked case of exercise bulemia. I'd be good with that if it would get me to 130 lbs and keep me there.
Yes, we are both still insane.

There is really no point in pasting in the details. Clusterfkcu says it all. This is one of those trying weeks where a combination of factors have tested my dicipline. Right now I'm not exactly passing with flying colors.
Its hard staying motivated when diet and exercise are not working and the medical community is of no help. Still, giving up will only lead me back where I began.
When I get within a pound of my ideal weight I will gave earned my 150 lb club card. I've already prepared it. I need to drop 18.4lbs to claim it and I am claiming it.

My Saturday was another day of drive thru eating. High cal, low nutrition. Take a good look at the nutrition facts and you'll see its the fat that is the killer.
Bad days happen but you have to even them out. There will be pay back but it does not have to be a ***** I'll be making a few adjustments: paying it back for this extended weekend and also paying it forward for the long Thanksgiving holiday weekend.
