Dropping the Seroquel and Ability will help you stop gaining, but you will have to put in some work to shed off some pounds...

Less heavy sauces, dressings, etc. and smaller portions as I suggested before. Just those things will make a difference now

I know you are always good about your water consumption

Had chicken pot pie and a poppyseed kale/veggie mix salad that I liked and so did jeff. The kit came with pumpkin seeds and cranberries and poppy seed dressing which was a little sweet. Surprised that jeff liked it.
and half an avocado.
Did not drink any alcohol tonight.

The dinner sounds very good, Bizi. Good job going AF last night

I am not losing weight, I am gaining!!! That doesn't bode well with Thanksgiving a couple of days away...
Thinking of going on the South Beach Diet again the week after...

I have managed to lose a few pounds water weight probably but it is a start.
179....I hope that I never get in the 180's again!
made it one week AF.
Lunch:
chicken salad
Dinner:
split an order of bang bang shrimp and had one slice of bread with pesto olive oil, chicken, lilly's from bone fish grill. It was so delicious!
with spinach, basil and artichokes and goat cheese and lemon butter sauce. side of spinach and brocoli. I cut up half and boxed it up right away to bring home as it was a lot of food.
It will be lunch tomorrow.
I decided to quit the more expensive gym and go to planet fitness instead and save $55 a month.

I tried 2 new things diet wise tonight.
These fake noodles, zero carbs,calories etc. and diet candy chocolate.
only alcohol sugars so acceptable on a low carb diet and for diabetics I might add.
I ate 3 pieces, peanut butter cup, toffee, and mint.
They were all delicious.
210 calories for 3 little pieces.
I also picked up some real sugar mexican soda called sangria. so I thought that I would mix it with the la crox soda water cranberry. It was ok.
Glad that I did not spend a lot for the soda.
Ate a weird new dinner. Boiled green onion chicken sausage in links.
added some red curry simmering sauce with veggies over the fake noodles.
Jeff and I both liked it.

The little chocolates just make me want more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I totally blew my diet tonight,
ate potato chips, almonds, candy....
I hope it is not the zyprexa catching up with me.
Or maybe the sugarless candy, it was so dissatisfying...I wanted to eat the whole bag!!!!!
I think it triggered my cravings to snack.
I never snack like that!
maybe I should just throw the rest away?

jeff will be gone tomorrow, I don't like it when he is away.

I will try to get some christmas cards out tonight. and try to keep off the computer. My house needs cleaning as usual.
jeff gets home tomorrow night at 6pm I think. So not a very long trip....but it is hard sticking to a schedule and not let my addictions swallow me whole.

who needs to get off the computer! and get going!

Congratulations on your whole AF week!!!

Sometimes things with sugar substitutes make me crave the real thing, and when I diet, any time I allow myself something sugary it makes those cravings worse, too. It’s like I can’t win lol.

Corey and I are going on the South Beach Diet in the new year. We are both very unhappy with our current weights. I know from past experience I can lose quite a bit fast, but his weight loss will not be as fast or dramatic because of his beer drinking.

I guess I am eating sugar alcohols instead of drinking it!
went thru the rest of the bag of chocolates....waiting for my girl friend to call me back.
sigh
she is such a poor communicator

Thank you kay!
I hope you and corey do well on the south beach diet.
now that the rest of the chocolates are gone, I will not be buying any more!
