Better, much better

MW: 131
GW: 129 by tomorrow

Goal probably isn't going to happen tomorrow morning but it may happen by Monday. The bf is working noon to midnight all weekend so I'm liquid fasting with Elizabeth <3

I heard Robin Williams say something funny about coffee. "I drink coffee for two reasons... to tell my brain that I'm awake and to jumpstart the colon." LOL, how true it is! It's like natures little laxative. Man I love coffee. Those expensive frappachinos are delicious but that's not coffee. There's nothing like a fresh cup of coffee in the morning. When I think about it I'll have a decaf cup of tea after dinner as my dessert. It's sweet and warm and we're talking 15 calories vs 350 calories for a dessert.

Tonight I'm making gnocci with alfredo and sausage to bring to my bf at work. I'm not eating a single bite! I don't eat red meat and that's always the card I play to get out of eating something fattening. It's kind of a life-saver actually... my family is southern so they put red mead in EVERYTHING.

You want some mashed potatoes? Sorry they've got bacon in it.
Why aren't you having pizza? They all have pepperoni and sausage on it.
Salad? You're having only salad again? I don't eat roast.

Intake: coffee, tea, homemade soup (400)
Exercise: elliptical, cycle, treadmill (-615)

  1. HAHA! sounds like my family.

    Which is also why I am LITERALLY the only one under 150lbs.

    I am so excited for this fast. Glad I am not alone. Glad I have you. <3

    I have to agree with you on the morning coffee. Although I love coffee and drink it throughout the day, there is just something about that first cup in the morning. More so when you have not eaten anything for over 12 hours and the way it fills your empty belly.

    So warm and comforting. I love it.

    Good Luck this weekend, twin. Stay strong. I'm here with you the entire way.

  2. Mmm... Coffeeeeeeee. Maybe I'll go get some today.
    I do the same thing with meat. I eat chicken and that's about it. I guess I eat fish but the worst stuff is the sausage and ham and those meats. Even just looking at them I feel greasy.
    You are so close to your goal! I am sure you will be there in no time. I am excited for you. :)
    xoxo
