204 lbs!!!!

 

I gotta get more seriouser too.

 

This weight has got me slow.

 

I'm a big fat turtle

Here's what's working for me....put yourself in a pollen laden southern town, where everything outside is yellow.  Then you become so miserable, get asthma, eyes are swollen, that you begin each day with:  allegra, singular, primatene, and your inhaler.  Cuts down on the appetite a little.  Eyes remain red and swollen, but I can breathe so I can run.

I definitely need to get serious about getting back to 140.  Calorie counting - how in the hell do you do that without having to look up everything little thing you eat?  Seriously.  I've tried in the past and have given up after a couple of days because I just don't know enough about what has X-number of calories.

 

 

I bought a food scale and keep the measuring cups out on the counter.  Calorie King and others on the web can give you the calorie count in just about everything on earth.  I write down the quantities or weight of everything I'm eating, and then fill in the calorie counts when I get a minute.  It does take a little bit of time, but after a couple of days, it gets easier.  At least it has for me, as I do tend to cycle through the same foods after a few days. 

 

Also, most of the recipes I have have calorie counts, so that makes it easier too.
