somehow I made it to 167!! I think not recording everything and not being obsessive about counting carbs really helps me the most. I've changed my goal weight to turn into OWL at 150 instead of 145. Then I will move up the carb ladder (counting carbs WITHOUT being obsessive) and continue until I reach my goal of 130-125

tomorrow will be my first exercise day.

I'm still maintaining at 168.4. It's aggravating. I've been on plan, and very good, but I admit to having too much coffee and splenda and probably way too much fat via coconut oil. So today I am testing out a new regimen, with only one cup of coffee a day, water all day at school and a decent dinner at night. I figured out how to make "chocolate" out of coconut oil, so I need to be careful with that. Also, with sugar free gum, Extra is like 2 carbs per stick! I haven't posted the last three days, though I have been on-plan.

Today:

2 eggs, 1/2 tbs butter, 2 tbs heavy cream [1.2, 0, 0.8]=2
1 cup coffee, 2 tbs heavy cream, 1 splenda [0.7, 0.8, 1]=2.5

[4.5]

Yesterday:
Pepperoni [1]
2 eggs, 1/2 tbs butter, [1.2]
14 oz Dunkin Donuts coffee w/ cream and 2 splenda [2, 3, 2]
chef salad - [6]
diet nestea - [1]
2 sticks Extra gum [4]
tuna broccoli thing  [5]
chocolate thing [4]

[29]
yeah that's why I've been maintaining... I need to be much more vigilant!

better today, but ill be weighing in tomorrow. eek.

I slipped up a little and had some bread last night, but I'm doing okay today. I'm trying to figure out a way to be more structured, but i think i've just been messed up because of the long weekend. but, no excuses. i need to buy more groceries and like, stockpile bacon because i always seem to run out.

review of rules:

only 3 packets Splenda a day. Use steviaclear for coffee and tea
measure out cream by the tablespoon. limit 4 tablespoons a day
20 carbs a day. I need to go for a full week and then go on to the first rung of OWL (staying there til I reach 145)

I must break this plateau, the only reason why i have plateaued is because i've been lazy and eating slightly more carbs. I also need to start EXERCISING. Perhaps I will walk to target before school tomorrow to get my muscles moving.

today:

3 eggs w/ 3 tbs heavy cream [1.8]
1 cup coffee w/ 2 tbs heavy cream, splenda [2.7]
"chocolate" made from coconut oil, unsweetened chocolate, splenda - [3]
tuna broccoli thing [5]
mozzarella stick [1]
