I have found a perfect weight loss tool... Illness! Laughs. I was stuck last week, and I was upset about it but I got REALLY sick on Tuesday, spiked a fever yesterday and am spiking another one today. So I got on the scale a little bit later than normal because I spaced (cold medicine makes me feel stupid right now) and I was SHOCKED to see the scale at 352.8. FREAKING 352.8!! I will admit, I was over 400 when I started. I am estimating my starting point at 404.... SO I HAVE LOST 51.2 pounds!
In 6 months I lost 51.2 pounds. This blows my mind. This is the most exciting thing ever for me, that I was able to get over that hump and CRUSH It! It has been hard lately, with Valentines day coming up and the candy EVERYWHERE and the feeling like I would possibly want to indulge in it... And how I want to be my own valentine. :) I will buy myself candy, and flowers. :)
Honestly, I think I would appreciate flowers more if someone gave them to me BEFORE or after valentines day, not On valentines day. I just think it's funny to have one day to show love to someone... but I digress...
SO here is my reason to loosing weight as ill:
When you are sick you can't taste anything, so you don't want to eat. You loose weight.
When you are sick you cough more, so you are working out your stomach. Tighter muscles!
When you are sick, you lay in bed more. Therefore food is further from your mind. You loose weight.
And again:
When you are sick, nothing looks good so you don't eat. YOU LOOSE WEIGHT. :)
Of course, when you get healthy again you want to eat everything...
So beware. Illness is great for loosing weight, but it's also bad for your body. You have to force yourself to eat good things, and you have to stop yourself from not eating. Food is important to heal your body.
I am going to lay down now, my body is starting to ache and get chilled again. I think the fever is returning, blast it!
But had to share my success. And I know you won't judge me on my weight. :)
