she drives me crazy

kermit, my clock is ticking!


I can't get any rest
People say I'm obsessed
(Well, now that you mention it...)

It's been awhile since I've blogged about fasting and weight-loss results.

The picture with my finger on my chin is me "before."

The pictures with my mouth hanging open is from about 2 days ago when I blogged all night, and just happened to look up as the clock struck 3 am.!

For about 2 weeks now, I have maintained a 1000 calorie deficit.
It's been just too hot to cook. I still use the rebounder, and walk a little.
Most days, I eat a small meal and maybe a snack. And/or protein mix.


I eat when I am hungry, smaller portions. I am actually just now coming out of a 8 week stall! That's EIGHT WEEKS! I kid you not. Thank you very much!

I have also lost an 1/2 inch from my left forearm. That is the only place I consistently take my measurements. There's no cheating when you take it there. But my clothes tell the real story. No need for scales and tape measures, when your whole body weighs in "nay" or "YAY!"

I made only one single change, and my two-month plateau was broken overnight.

I switched from brown, caramel flavored diet drinks, to Diet Mountain Dew. One per day. So it wasn't the caffeine, or the artificial sweetener. Or any other anecdotal thing in The Universe. Some might speculate, but I think it was just ....

...It's just a phenomenon of LoCarbing -
or
lose it, without "losing it!" 35 pounds in 17 weeks is about 2 pounds a week, averaged.
Which I never got to post! Until now!

my brave face



















The first pic is my when I drove to California for the infamous vacation that started it all.  Late 
March 09. (Stuck in the Grand Canyon - no electricity - just hard boiled eggs and beef jerky. 
 You know, THAT story!)

The second pic is me a few days ago.  We'll see in another 90 days!
