Let's Do It Again!!

Hey guys!
So this morning I was 206.8 lbs, which is good, I'm still losing weight! I had a bit of a weird mishap over the last few days though. I ate watermelon on monday (totally NOT following the plan I know) but I ate quite a lot in one sitting. That was because when I came off of my fast I had come off just in time for my mom and dad not to gobble up my part of the watermelon (or what was left of it anyway). So I ate the watermelon and followed that with water for the rest of the day, the problem is that watermelon has the special property of kinda acting like a laxitive and I didn't think about it until it started acting like a laxitive!!! I don't know why (probably because of the water fast) but my body FREAKED and it was a very unpleasant day/night/early morning for me. AND I bloated up like a balloon AND my weight bounced up to 212.8!?! I knew it was all water, because I barely ate anything and also I was looking in the mirror! So anyways yesterday I water fasted (I was honestly too scared to eat ANYTHING) and now my body has settled back down and my flat abs are back. But I just figured what the hell and I'm fasting again today. And tomorrow. I already have my game plan for breaking the fast friday morning: I have a bottle of strawberry banana orange juice and an apple. If the apple is soft I'll just juice it! I reallly hate soft apples, in case you didn't know! Also I froze the juice so that I won't be tempted to drink it. Well, I can be tempted, but I'd have to wait for it to melt! Lol. I only seem to lose significant amounts of weight while fasting and now that it's honestly not that hard for me to do...carpe diem right? PLUS I've already lost over ten pounds so far this month which is awesome!!! I mean my original goal for this month was 195 by August 1 and now it's looking like I may be able to touch the 180's if I play my cards right!! I know I won't be able to do all of this fasting once school starts back in late august so I'd better lose all I can in the time that I have!
It's funny how supportive my parents are now with my fasting, but my dad totally has an ulterior motive! When I'm not eating he eats what I would've eaten! Perfect example: my parents just bought the juice today, it was a carton right? And my dad's all like "oh yeah you're fasting today aren't you?" Anf I'm like "yeaaah, why?" "Oh because we saved you some juice but you're doing like three days it won't last that long"
First of all, it's fucking JUICE. You put it in the fridge and it lasts at least a week. Secondly, I can also do what I did with it which was FREEZE it. Thirdly, you just want to drink my juice greedy!!!! I go through this ALL THE TIME now. Having stuff that's "mine" be consumed by other individuals is my biggest pet peeve. It's the one way to get under my skin and a surefire way to get smacked! Haha. Anyway, so that's my plan!

  1. I don't mean to be discouraging but don't get too ambitious with your time goals just yet - you should be prepared for your body to adapt to the fasting. I see this all the time, people lose weight fast at first with a new method and say oh I should be able to lose 6 pounds this week, 20 pounds this month, whatever, but it always slows down before then. Pretty much every method averages out to the 1-2 pounds a week long term, you just get the illusion of fast loss at the beginning or because of big up and down swings.

  2. Hi! I'm a new follower of yours. I just love your blog.

    That's great that you're doing so well (: You inspire me to keep my own goals and keep working at it. Good luck this next week, you'll be at your goal weight in no time.

  3. We should race... See who can be under 200 first... I think you will win, cause you have less to lose than I do, but I think it would be freaking awesome to be under 200 by august 1, and contests motivate me! If you wanna try, let me know, k? So far so good on Day 3! I haven't eaten a bite, and it is already 8pm! "Rock the set" as my husband would say!

    so your parents are ok with you fasting?
