How Is This Possible

Today is Sunday Feb. 6, 2011, .1:00 pm I am down to 236.5 down 12.5 from 249 as of Jan 15, 2011. So excited. out of the 40's.
This morning I had oatmeal with 1/2 tsp. of butter. Coffee (lots) with hazelnut creamer sprinkled with cinnamon. I have prob. 32 oz. of water with peach tea flavoring so far. At 2:00 i will have a Jillian Whey Choc. Protein shake with 1 cup of ice, 1/2 banana, 2 tbsp. of p.nut butter, 1 scoop of protein powder, 1/2 cup 1% milk and 1 cup of water. Put into my bullet blender and have a great protein shake.

It is now 4:30 and I just had a big bowl of Healthy Choice Chicken Noodle. Lower Sodium (390 g).
I am staying away from high sodium stuff it set me back a week ago today by 4 lbs. and it took me all week to get those 4 lbs off again. No more. Sip on 32 oz. water thru evening.

around 7 tonight i will have a salad with johsonville salami snack bites (prob 4 or 5) slices up in the salad. i put lettuce, little onions, banana peppers, a few olives, cucumber, a few baby tomato's. dressing is homemade by my wonderful husband. Not sure but low fat, low cal. low carb. very little sodium. Another 32 oz water.

Does this menu seem like a good menu. Do I need to make tweeks. Help a Nannie If Ya Can. Gotta get the skinny nannie out

Hi!
Your meals look good to me.  I think that once you poop, the scale will go down.  Maybe more fiber will help.  I have to take Senekot every night or I'm really miserable.
Keep on BOTTing!

They look good to me too.

It looks like you gain water weight easily.  Increasing your fluid intake can help that.

If you gain water easily I would not recommend weighing every day.  OR don't freak out if it bounces around due to the water.  You know with how you are eating that you shouldn't be gaining weight so don't freak if you show water gain.

I also have to take laxitives nightly to go every few days.

If I had not poo'd in 5 days I would not even get on the scale.  That's all it is.  You are doing wonderfully.  Just me
