LIW 151 on 2-21-08 - Not so stable after all...

LIW 151 on 2-21-08
Today’s weight 158.6
7.6 lbs over LIW

Why is it that when we have guests around we just eat so dang much?! Yesterday at work, management brought in Einstein bagels with all the good stuff to go on them, so that was my breakfast instead of the usual scrambled eggs with onions. Then I had a small "Empire" apple for a snack and soup for lunch. Now if I had just kept that up, I might have been okay, but no... I left work a little early because my husband had given me a ride to work while our other vehicle was in the shop. He and our visitors had gone to pick up a honeybaked ham and then we went to pick up the tundra at the dealership. Unfortunately it wasn't ready yet so to kill a little time we went over to Cold Stone Creamery! Before I went in, I decided I wouldn't have anything, maybe just a bite of my hubby's but that lasted about 15 seconds. I ended up having a scoop of banana mixed with strawberry and a little fudge syrup in a waffle cone. So good! It was like a mini banana split. Then we went home so full that we weren't going to eat dinner. But then our daughter came over with her two kids and said what do you have to eat, so we got out the ham and ATE again! OMG! So you'd really think we'd be done for the day but an hour or so later, and I'm so ashamed to admit this, but we had this village inn french silk pie in the fridge that my brother-in-law wouldn't let anyone eat until I could have some. So he says, you have to have some now, or we'll never eat it! So I did. ArgggH! Yesterday was the biggest disaster of all of my P3 and P4 days combined. I feel so disgusted with myself today. I've been eating boiled eggs and protein shakes today. That's it. I'm afraid to go home today though. Who knows what's in store for me...

So to all of my commenters who thought it was great that I stabilized, I'm sorry to disappoint you. Maybe tomorrow will be better. I'll probably not be able to work on getting back down until they leave next week though. I plan to go on P2 again then. Maybe I should start injections on Monday so that I can go right into the VLCD on Wednesday after they have gone back home.

But the good news? The weather is still great so I can still take my walks around the lake behind the building I work in.

See you all later... Time to turn in...

Hey, I think if you just concentrate on getting your protein for the next couple of days that excess should come right off!! Easier said than done, I know, especially with guests. I wish you the best and keep us posted!! Take care!!

Becca, my 2 cents...water, lots of water! You know that the ham was LOADED with sodium, right? Hang in there!

Becca, it's nothing but a thang girl, look at how I am coming down given the right circumstances. Enjoy the time with your friends, don't stress about this and work on it when they are gone. Food is a normal social function ok?

Hello,
don't sweat it my friend. I do know what you mean. It goes down, I also think you can do a cleanse or drink a lot of water. Its working for me ;)
Keep us posted..

Hang in there - look how much you've lost in such a short period of time! You amaze me! I cannot imagine what it would be like to be in the 150's. I agree with smacmo - water water water. Besides, Now You Know that Relatives are Deadly for Healthy Eating. Not that they actively sabotage it but damn it's hard. I especially like all of the "are you sure you are eating enough" comments I get from the out-of-towners. As it is, here's a hug for you and for your support of me in my early days. BTW can you tell me what LIW is?
