The Journey begins with me page 245

I hate when things feel like they are controlling me as opposed to me being in control, hope the rest of the day gets better.

Well, I pretty much hit my macros..they were a tad low. Woke with some heartburn this morning which is really odd.

Yesterday totals:

Totals
1,340 calories

18 Carbs
5%
113 Fat
76%
64 Protein
19%

You would think the fat would be melting off.. must be patient though.

I think you should either add HWC to some tea or make some of that Primal Creamer and add it to some tea, you are so very close and really just need to bring the fat up. I drink maybe 3 to 4 cups of hot tea a day, and use fat or not depending on how my macros are going. It is a very flexible way to get that number where it needs to be.

Do you take Omega 3 oil (I use Carlson's lemon flavor-Whole Foods actually had the best price on it, go figure) a tsp a day adds a bit of the good stuff.

You would think...I have been stuck at 235 for 5 days. Hoping for a move soon.

you girls need to get off the scales

[Pebbles67]

My how the worm has turned...You are right. I'll do it weekly in February.

I don't think Karin is weighing, unless she is doing it secretly.

[demuralist]

I know, sometimes I wonder if I should even write anything in my journal, cause I know that I will eventually do a 180 degree turn, and then probably back again! I am pretty sure that once goal is reached I will do a daily weigh in, partially just to see the number and partially to keep it there!

Um...Remember when I blamed my health crisis last year on VLC eating causing thyroid problems?

I look like a total hypocrite now.

[demuralist]

Well, I am thinking more like you learned the truth. I would only consider you a hypocrite if you knew the truth then. Who knew if you added fat it would have solved the problem.

We can only say what is the truth for us at the time.

I did step on the scale.. I know I know.. I have been feeling twinges (I do not how else to put it) in my hips and back. When I usually get them its because I am losing so I was curious. I will not be getting back on until the end of the month.

I have brought butter and HWC to school for coffee and tea. I need to get on using it though to help bring the fat up. I am close and it is amazing how being a little off can affect how you feel and function.
