so... how's it going? How's the weather? Have you called your mom today? Have you called your kids today? Did you pet a cat? Oh look at that, huh I lost 3 pounds. ho hum. I hear the sports teams are playing today. ;)
I owe this to all of you who didn't let me give up. One month ago I was ready to quit and call it a life. Everyone who read that journal encouraged me to keep going. So I started really taking stock of what I was eating, how much I was eating, and life in general. In the one month since I was ready to give up I have lost 6.6 pounds. That's about 1.66 pounds a week.
What did I do differently? Most importantly I started logging my food. That started me on a mindful way of eating. Do I really want to eat this and have to log it for the entire world to see? If I eat this now will I have to eat less for a later meal?
Then I started reading. The book that got to me the most was "The Starch Solution" by Dr John McDougall. I had already cut out meat, and pretty much eggs. After reading The Starch Solution I cut out cheese and oil as well. It was surprisingly a lot easier than I thought. Since I was eating starches as my main source of nutrition, I didn't have cravings. I started making bulk food and just keeping preprepared food in my fridge so that I wouldn't be tempted by Taco Bell. I've also started putting my food consumption into cronometer.com and it shows me my daily nutrient intake. I'm doing pretty well with all my vitamins, minerals, and proteins. Lastly, I just pretend I haven't lost the weight so my body doesn't know and sabotage me. Somethings working.

So I'm at the gym. Not right now, but in my story, I'm at the gym. I see this guy in about his late 50s, and he is just going to town on this chin up machine. I look at the girlfriend and say " I WANT to do that! It looks like so much fun!". So we finish the machines we are on and head over there. About 5 minutes later, I finally figure out how to get on the darn contraption. I climb on the little knee pad, grab the handles, and UUUUUGGGGGGH. I got half way up. Try again. UUUUUUUUGGGGH. I get half way up. I tell the girlfriend, "that counts as 1, that guy must be a LOT stronger than he looks".
Fast forward to the next day at work, I'm telling my co-worker at the restaurant about my one chin up. Another co-worker joins the conversation and says "Oh you have to adjust the weight." um...what? Some of you are laughing at me by now because you know the secret of this little contraption. Turns out the more weight you add the more it is supporting of your body weight. I was trying to lift my body weight, all 178.8 lbs of it. The next day I went back to that torture device, set the weight limit to 80 lbs, and proceed to do about 30 chin ups dag nab it! I can chin up 100 lbs.
Well, now I have a goal for my life. I am going to do a chin up. 1. With no weight assistance. I want to be able to grab a bar and lift my chin over that bar. I figure at some point in my life this will come in handy, like the next time I need to see over a bar.
Also, I jogged. 8 minutes. non-consecutively. I hate jogging, but I did it! I downloaded the couch to 5K app and jogged my butt off. I really wanted to give up after the first jog, then the second jog, then the well you get the idea, but before I knew it I had jogged 8 minutes. Thank you, thank you. Your applause is too kind.

I'm still trying to catch up to my life, but I just had to share a nice little tip I discovered with all my chocoholic buddies out there. When you are craving chocolate, buy the bar that is 88% cocoa. Trust me you can not eat very much of this stuff. Your tongue would be angry with you if you did. wow. that is some chocolate.

I'm still not going to trust this number. This is usually when I start to self sabotage. So I'm just going to pretend I still weigh 183. Maybe that way I won't know I lost the weight and won't tell myself to pig out.
Been having a blast with my rice cooker. I love that little guy. I've started just cooking up huge pots of lentils and then a huge pot of rice. This way I have food ready to take with me on the road or eat when I get home starving. I also have made soup in it which was AWEsome! Peanut soup. So tasty! I was going to make my lentil loaf in it, but haven't tried that yet. Maybe today. Oh, which led me to something I have been coveting. I googled "can I cook meatloaf in a rice cooker", which led me to a website for truckers to post recipes they cook on the road. Well, each recipe listed which appliance they used. Several of the recipes listed a Burton Lunchbox. So OF COURSE I had to know what this was. WANT!! SO!! BAD!! It's like an old time lunch box construction workers used to take, well my dad had one anyway, the black ones with the thermos in the top. Except this one has metal lining the top and bottom, and it plugs into the 12v power outlet in the van, and HEATS YOUR FOOD ON THE ROAD WHILE YOU DRIVE! HOW COOL IS THAT? I could have actual real warm food! I'm so geeking out! I had just resigned myself to eating cold leftovers. Oh the possibilities!
Ok, if you don't hear from me for the rest of the week, I'm probably buried under bags of stuffed animals. Be well, safe journey everyone!
