A drunken mess !! ;-) Yeah, it's no good when you feel shame !! I did too tonight with a bad double red (Saturday night) ! I was hoping for a double yellow, but I was bad-bad-bad ! It started well, (although I skipped my training !) I was fighting up until 8 o'clock ... but it degenerated along the ...

bluebunny27

Yeah, congrats ! It'd be nice if more people posted their weight too, lol ! Don't be shy ! Personally I think it helps me to disclose that information, I know the number will be posted so I have to be goooooood, you see. Same with the green-yellow-red days, it's probably not a coincidence that april...

bluebunny27

Yes, you should think long and hard about it since you were doing good before, no reason why you shouldn't succeed really. You should do as I do, 'Quitting' is not an option you can even consider, lol ! Doesn't that make it easier, instead of asking yourself if you should quit or not, you don't even...

bluebunny27

Yes, my old avatar was less 'threatening', it was a fluffy lil' blue bunny, not a big bad black wolf, lol ! Sorry I should have started with that screen name from the get go, I usually use it so it's more convenient for me to remember it, especially since here for some reason I often have to enter i...

bluebunny27

I eat salads once or twice a day everyday now ... I mix in all sorts of veggies. Carrots, Celery, Cucumber, peas, potatoes (whenever I make some in the oven I make sure to cook some extra and I keep them in plastic containers, I really like them cold in salads too !) Bell peppers, radishes, tomatoes...

bluebunny27

Yeah, I'm all blue !! Actually if I recall I selected the name based on my avatar at the time ... a Blue bunny ... and then added a number. ;-) I was surprised later finding out there was a dairy company with the name "Blue Bunny", :-) I was a lil' blue last night actually, I weighed myself before g...

bluebunny27

Ok, So I was a lil' naughty on the 18th in the evening ... I have to give myself a yellow for the nutrition instead of a green as I was planning. I think I ate too little for dinner actually, that's why I felt so hungry in the evening but it wasn't a huge binge, the referee gave me a simple yellow c...

bluebunny27

http://i41.tinypic.com/zsjtom.jpg Updated HabitCal. Planning ahead, I should be green all the way until sunday ... then sunday it'll be double yellow most likely and I'll go to a family reunion/party ... hopefully I'll be able to avoid a red day. Cheers ! Marc ;-) Disclaimer : I am following a more...

Multiple feedings ?? Huh, shouldn't the baby be on NO-S too ?? ;-) It's hard to be green where there's a lil' baby around, but I'm sure you'll adapt your routine. Cheers !

bluebunny27

Yeah, Berry, I need to use the string to make sure I am not INDECENT on the bike path !! I'd like to go to one of those nudist colonies so I could ride my bike naked .... awwwwwwwwh !! That would feel gooooood !! Naked bowling is also a popular activity. ;-) Nichole, you're gonna ruin your appetite ...

Yes, I love peanut butter ! ;-) I have to be careful though, because there are quite a few calories in PB, I limit myself to 1 tbsp per day so a big PB jar lasts a couple of months probably. ;-) I never had a PB & J sandwich though, it's not something most people do around here, putting jelly on PB ...

bluebunny27

Yes, I always have my piece of paper with me no matter what the day is ... except for special occasions, going somewhere, friend, family, restaurant ... then of course I don't know what I'll be eating, I just try to be relatively good at that time. Usually worth a yellow. At home I always have my pi...

bluebunny27

Thanks, Thalia, Nichole, Renee. ;-) I was pleased with my weigh in this morning. 211.6 Yesterday I put on shorts that I was BARELY able to wear last summer weighin' around 280 pounds, they were really tight ... this year I have to tie the string around me or else they'd fall down, quite a change. We...

bluebunny27

lol ! Well, you have my approval if you want to put it on a t-shirt, a bumper sticker, a mug, anything ... it's all good !

There's a program I watch weekly on TV, they talk about all sorts of food related subjects ... this past week there was a 10 min. segment on MESCLUN, they were interviewing someone who was making it on a larger scale since he was providing some once a week to 120 different families. He had nice long...

bluebunny27

Wow, this sounds great, Stephen ! What are your diet and training habits ?? I'd be curious to know what a 'typical' day is for you ... I'll take a picture of your chart there and maybe set up something similar with my SpreadPro program, I hadn't thought of doing that before, 'Days ahead of your goal...

bluebunny27

Heh ! Yes, Berry, a party but I am not THE LIFE OF THE PARTY, I'm the one worrying about the cake and the calories in the 'DIP' ... ;-) I have been doing extremely well during this first half of the month and also next week, same deal, because I know the end of the month will be tougher ... Official...

Yeah, I was mostly joking around as usual ! ;-) I need to be extra good in between the dates I mentioned because I know I'll have some tough weekends ahead, that's all I was sayin' ...

Ok, I managed to cycle on Sunday afternoon, no rain ... but there were a thousand people using the bicycle path, more or less. I went at 2pm when it was super busy, I should have waited at 5pm when it seemed like there were 3 times less people using it (I see part of the path through the trees in th...

It's good to be...

bluebunny27

Saturday night I cheated a bit on my diet, not excessively but I still have to give myself a yellow. No big deal though, it could have been worse. I'll be good on Sunday to make up. I might not be able to cycle on sunday since rain is expected, or I might try to sneak in an earlier cycling session i...

Sounds like you're rollin' - - Good work, Stephen. 21 days club member. Nice treat too, half a mini pie. See, this is good, you split the pie in 2 instead of having it all at once, this way you get to have the other half a bit later, 2 small treats on separate days, better that way ! You 'saved' the...

bluebunny27

KCCC "Thanks for telling me the details. However, I'm not convinced. The extra fat could simply have COME FROM the dairy products (even low-fat dairy has a high proportion of fat). Eating more fat would naturally result in excreting more. So, their conclusions about long-term weight loss may well ha...

Good to know that Mimi is alright too ! ;-) Congrats on the new lil' baby ! Wonderful news ! I like the name 'Liam' as well. It was a long night for you, Mimi ??? Did it take many hours ??? Cheers !

bluebunny27

The part about the dairy and the fat excretion. They convinced me 100% that it was working. It was all very precise and scientific too. They analyzed the FECES of a young man who ate similar meals 2 weeks back to back, the only difference between week 1 and 2 was that he was eating more dairy produc...

Saturday, all nice n' green of course. Intense Cycling this afternoon, probably around 2:30/3:00pm. Approx. 50 min. Diet, Same ol' situation. I'm green and lovin' it. Doing alright. Late last night I was *REALLY* hungry, I could easily have been in trouble since I kept thinking about cookies, candy,...

bluebunny27

Yeah, that's why I didn't list the 10 items. You have to listen to the program to get all the explanations, especially the part about the huh .. 'Dairy and the fat excretion' ! :-) I don't like 'Cliff notes'. I kept the .mp3 file in my archives for future perusal. Oh, everyone knows you're verrrrrrr...

bluebunny27

Good ! You work out, and then you reward yourself by doing things you like. Nice ! Typical double green day today. I'll cycle hard, probably for 50 minutes. Diet, right on track so I ain't too worried about my red day this past wednesday. I stil have a few days until the official weigh in. (Next tue...

bluebunny27

Yes ! ;-) You set your own goals and objectives and then you improve, every little bit helps and it doesn't take all sorts of fancy equipment or a gym membership either, just some *ELBOW GREASE*. ;-) I always love it whenever I work out hard because I feel good once I am done. Today after my intens...

I like the anecdote about the cookies in the toilet, funny stuff ! ;-) I was a 'Cookie monster' last night as well but today I am being 100% green to make up, it shouldn't hurt me too much especially since my next weigh in is in several days so I have time to recover. I just went cycling and I was s...

bluebunny27

Fantastic work, Berry ! ... ;-) It's nice to read positive messages like that, people who have achieved their goal, that's inspiring. 14 pounds in a month and a half, you were on a mission, Berry. Those are pounds that are harder too, since you weren't starting from a very high number, 154. :-) Wish...

You know on BIG BROTHER, the Bible is the only book the contestants are allowed to bring. ;-) Looking forward to the new season of BIG BROTHER on CBS. July 9th, woo hoo ! 3 hours per week.

bluebunny27

Yeah, no cookies today. ;-) I was naughty but I've been so good before that ... it won't hurt me too much in the long run, especially if I get right back on the bike again soon. My yogurt tastes awesome, especially mixed with a tea spoon of maple syrup (or honey) I mix it in there really well and it...

http://i43.tinypic.com/awzyno.jpg Alright, it was bound to happen. My planned yellow nutrition day turned into a red one late last night, june 10th, when I over indulged on some cookies and I also ate a bagel extra with margarine. I don't feel too bad about it though because I had been so good sinc...

bluebunny27

I think you should get a bigger bowl and that would be fine ... or use 2 smaller bowls and finish them, lol ! It's still one plate of food's worth. You just put it in a purÃ©e/liquid form, which is a great idea. You shouldn't be penalized because you ate it as a soup instead of straight on the plate...

Remember that Seinfeld episode ... The SOUP NAZI, lol ! "No soup for you !!" ;-) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soup_nazi Yeah, around november 1st, I'd like to keep this going for a solid year and then wherever I end up will be fine, I won't beat myself up for 3-4 pounds over 195 if it ends up that w...

bluebunny27

Mmmmmmmmmm ... soup ! ;-) Isn't it nice to get ideas like that ... things that can really help you on a daily basis. I've kept the audio file '10 things you need to know...' in my archives. The program was well made and the description was so good even not seeing the images you understand 99% of wha...

bluebunny27

Hehe ! Of course, the 'competition' thing, that was just joking around. You compete with yourself basically and that's more than enough. ;-) Spreadsheets, goals, charts, that's what I like to hear ! I don't know about daily goals though, I use weekly goals personally but if you prefer daily goals, i...

bluebunny27

Yes, I was thinking about this later on ... it makes sense. When you eat oatmeal for example you seem to feel full for a long time, same principle with creamy thick soups possibly. I'll investigate this a bit more, sounds like a good plan to avoid cravings sin any case. Cheers ! Marc ;-) Disclaimer ...

bluebunny27

Stephen, I like checking out your chart/progress sometimes too because you seem really motivated and you have great results too, nice to read your messages.

I have problems with the word 'Addiction' there. Chips don't have a substance that make them addictive. You can't get addicted to anything, you just like 'em, that's all, it's not like heroin or ...

Marc ;-) Disclaimer : I am following a more extreme version of the 'No-S' diet. I made my own personal modifications to the original plan (Diet & Exercise) What I am doing shoul...

I'd say the first thing to try is the exercise, you maximize your chances of losing weight that way. Try doing any kind of cardio exercise 20 minutes a day 5 days a week, or less at first if you are not used to it. I'm sure you'll see results in no time. No S is a great plan by itself, you can tweak...

shamrockmommy, it's a coincidence but I just started making milk kefir as well. I just got the dehydrated grains and I am in the process of reactivating them right now... it should take a few days apparently, maybe a week and they'll be ready to go. I put them in half a cup of milk for 24 hours at r...

Yes, I saw this program the other day: "How it's made" They had a segment on yogurt and how they were making it. The kind with fruits at the bottom. It didn't seem too healthy to me with everything they were adding to the mix, sugar, syrup, gelatin, pectin and whatnot ... all sorts of powders, mixin...

June 3rd, I expect a double green today again then I can ease up tomorrow with a double yellow. Double greens 3 days in a row now so I'm definitely being goooooooood at the moment. Weigh in tomorrow morning too, I should be under 215 hopefully, high 214's not really sure ... maybe the low 215's. I'm...

:shock: You have to be careful not to get over confident of course, sometimes it happens, you think everything's alright and that makes you happy ... leading to easing up and then you fall down. At least it happens to me sometimes, being happy or sad can lead to emotional eating, so being careful @ ...

Yeah, it should always be mentioned that I exercise a lot more than most people ... with more intensity too based on the way I overtake people on the bicycle path, 95% overtaking ratio. ;-) I want to make the exercise count so I exercise with a lot of intensity. A typical green day would be 70 minut...

That's right, Stephen, I started on nov. 1st 2008 ... it's a year long marathon for me since I want to lose 85 pounds total. The numbers that are in the future (After june 1st) are the numbers I want to achieve, I change my graph up or down depending on what has really happened so I have what has be...

Nah, not too old ... about 40-42 y/o ... :-) I'll probably have to use my bell 3-4 times each time I cycle, unless it's a slow day of course with hardly anyone there on the bike path, but there's usually something happenin' ... someone getting in the way, not looking where they are going, riding nex...

Hehe ! The main reason to install a bell is for the safety issues ... I already had 3-4 close calls since I started cycling regularly, 6-7 weeks ago ... and to avoid getting annoyed by some people who are oblivious to others and block the passing lane ... it's better to ring the bell once in a while...

Yeah, an Olympic slope, that made me laugh !! There's a bump in the middle though since I only lost 4 pounds in march ! ;-) It looks like the kind of steep man made hills they use when they are ski jumping @ the winter Olympics, lol !! :-) Cheers !
