Hey guys!!!!
So today I weighed in at 213.4 lbs, only .6 lbs away from my low weight and down another 2.2 lbs since yesterday! That's 5.4 lbs in two days!!!!!! Yayayayay!
Yesterday I had:
My acetyl l-carnitine pills, and kelp pill
Lemon water
Cinnamon tea
Hawthorne tea
And I jogged for 33 minutes and walked for 30 minutes! I feel really good though!! I think my stomach is starting to become aware that it has nothing coming it's way. It's starting to growl more, but no hunger pangs yet (sorry red!). Either that or somehow I am magically blocking them out from my brain! Haha, idk.
I was a bit unhappy yesterday, all of my final grades are in and unfortunately my prized 4.0 gpa is no more. I got A's for all of my classes except physics, in which I got a B. However, I am getting my prof to scan me a copy of my final because he claimed I got 68/125 and that curved up to 77% and I just don't believe that. So I'm gonna take a peek. Who knows, my gpa may rise from the dead! I'm sorry if I sound weird but I've had a 4.0 throughout my entire college time. So that number has been with me three long years. Now my gpa is 3.92, which isn't bad and if I work my ass off I can still get like a 3.97 or something for graduation and be summa cum laude. That is like the ultimate goal for me!! I wanna be the best!
Anyway, I'm rambling. I am going out today, to buy more water, some more cinnamon, more lemon juice, and some sparkling water!
Comments!
Red: haha, you never know, you might overtake me soon! Idk what it is with my stomach, it wants me to fast or something! Everyday I wake up I wonder if I lost anything because I just don't feel hungry! You're pretty strong yourself cause you're doing it with me!!! ^_^
Ana banana: I will definitely keep it up my dear!!!!<3
Off to troop through day 3!
XOXO,
Scarlet<3

Day 2 and I feel Brand New!
Hellloooooo!!!
I am so super happy today. I am 215.6 lbs!!!!!! I lost 3.2 lbs in a freaking day!!!! Omg woot!
So here's what I did yesterday:
Took 2 acetyl l-carnitine tablets (powdered kind, emptied into my water)
1 kelp pill (also powdered kind, emptied into water)
Lemon water
Sparkling lemon water
Cinnamon tea with lemon (omg this tastes so super good. Like a cinnamony lemonade, sweet and nice but with zero cals!)
Bazooka joe bubble gum (I chewed it but I didn't swallow anything!!! Yay!)
So that was day one. I also did thirty minutes of jogging and thirty minutes of walking. It was pretty easy, I was just kinda bored because I had nothing to do but I can deal with bored. I wasn't hungry at all, I heard my stomach growl a bit but none of that twisting and contracting business. I told my parents about my fast and they're all supportive. In fact, my dad has fasting envy. He wants to do one but the meds he takes require him to eat, so he's a tad unhappy right now! But he is taking me to buy some sparkling water, some lemon juice. And I'll narc some more cinnamon bark offa him. Haha. I can't believe how exciting this is! I guess since I wasn't eating crap before hand, only like natural stuff pretty much, the detox symptoms aren't hitting me too tough.
You know I made my dad eggs with mushrooms yesterday? And I toasted waffles?? Yep, I did and I was like hmmm, I don't think so! Nothing crossed these lips. My parents bought some OJ but I didn't drink any!! Yay! Even though it was a lovely and vibrant orange color, lol.
Comments!
Ana Banana: oooh, I've always wanted a cheering section!!!!! I feel super motivated now!!!! <3
C: I'm totally cheering for your fast and I hope you do awesome! The stuff I did yesterday is pretty much what I'm living on right now, so if you want you can do that. The website has amazing motivation and information! Good luck!!!! ^_^
Off to complete day two and troop to day three, it's already 1pm so I am more than halfway through!!

3,2,1...GO!
Hello hello my loves!
So mother's day is over, I hope you guys gave your mom's the world!!!!! Yesterday's food wasn't like awful, mostly because we wound up NOT going to the buffet!! Wooooooooo!!!! But I made my mom bfast (eggs, waffles, and salmon cakes) and lunch (two more waffles) and dinner (portabella mushroom stuffed with crab) and dessert (piece of cake). So not bad as the waffles were eggo sized and everything else, with the exception of the cake, was protein. So yay.
But today starts something totally awesome: seven day water fast! Yes, I said seven day. I was talking to red and she said she was doing a seven day and I said why the heck not?!? I mean ketosis happens after day three, and I was gonna wake up to day four anyway, and I really wanna do a long fast but I'm trying to psych myself into saying, oh seven days is not that long! And then pull the bait and switch and keep going! Hahaha, so awesomely evil. I mean, idk if it's going to work but I'm gonna try. Besides, if it doesn't I'm just switching to the liquids any way.
So here are the stats to start:
May 10, 2010:
SW: 218.8 lbs
GW (for May 17): 198 lbs
Okay so fear not about the weight my dears, aunt flo is in town. But she'll be gone on...saturday. So my weight should absolutely plummet with this. I read on a website ana banana told me about (www.fitnessthroughfasting.com ) that, on average, people can lose twenty pounds on a seven day fast. TWENTY POUNDS. Do you know what I would do to get rid of twenty pounds in a week??? So this sounds like a very good deal. So if you guys wanna join in with red and me come on! And if you wanna do a liquid fast instead, come on!!! We aren't prejudiced, we all just wanna be thin.

Violet Summer Chic: omg thankyou!!!! Just you wait, the show has only just begun!<3
Ana Banana: oooh, you'd better! Lol, your plan sounds good, I've seen what your "reasonable dinners" are, so I think I have my competition cut out for me! Yeah, the breaks in the plan will not stop the plan!<3
Charlie: omgosh I missed you too!!!!! You are so sweet and I adore you. Yeah, left to our own devices we aren't that awesome, but together we're amazing!!! <3<3
Red: haha, I am a planoholic!!! Seriously I was reading some of my old posts and it was just plansplansplans and programs, lol. We're totally gonna get through this fast!!!!!!<3
Off to drink some lovely water! (Twentypoundstwentypoundstwentypounds!)

Your Love Is My Drug
Hey guys!!
Oh man it feels soooo good to be back! Finals are over and I am hoping for all A's!
The end of my semester was much like the end of ugly betty...kinda lowkey for all the drama that went on this semester! The last person I talked to on campus was SC...let's see what happens next semester with that one!
Food wise... God I need you guys like oxygen. You keep me from doing horrible things to myself! With the exception of yesterday (because I refused to do it) I purged EVERY SINGLE DAY from sunday through wednesday. It was so sad. They weren't even binges it was just I was super stressed and I felt too full and suddenly it was up and out. I was thinking about my exams...looking good to give everyone a great last impression...fitting into those pants...being good while on my blog vacay. Meh, but I tell you what, something amazing is brewing up my dears!
My summer long liquid fast starts monday, kicking off with a three day water fast. You know to purify and cleanse and make me appreciate being able to have liquids with taste! Lol.
The Rules:
For water fast: lemon water, sparkling, and regular water are acceptable.
For liquid: real liquids only. No smoothies, or anything with a solid component. Aim for bfast, lunch, dinner, and two "snacks" format. This way I won't be drinking juices or whatever when I'm thirsty instead of only for meals. I'm aiming for 500cals a day, which means drinking mostly veggie juices, and diluting fruit juices. The max is 800cals. And I have to exercise EVERYDAY in some form. At least thirty minutes. I can elliptical, jog, strength train, or breakdance (woo!). I mean, I guess walking counts too but I'll call that extra credit.
I was going to start the whole kidankaboodle today, and have the water fast over by monday morning and glide into my liquid fast, but my dad said it would be effed up to do that this weekend with mother's day and all. So I guess I have to eat this weekend. But I make a pledge that I will not binge and I won't purge anything that I eat this weekend. Because if I can't get rid of it during a may to august liquid fast I'll have to be dead. Also, the only breaks in the fast will be father's day (maybe, this is not a guarantee)...I don't think I have anything else where I'd have to eat food...except that bbq my friend is planning. But I don't eat meat anyway and he's taking forever to plan it so I might just blink on it all together! I know what you're thinking, what are your motivations scarlet? How will you make it through approx. 90 DAYS!?!
Well, my bro and his wife are coming in around late june. I hate his wife and I want to look a zillion times better than the last time she saw me. Um, C (aka guy from orgo)is coming back from ireland for the fall semester, so yeah major changes must be made. Also SC is not dropping off the map because I'm not in physics with him! Chances are I'm going to see him (read say let's meet up!) Next semester so again, must look totally hot. Also, if I don't lose all the weight this summer when I have basically nothing to do, I might actually see my eighteenth birthday still fat. That absolutely cannot happen at all!!!!!!! Must push on!!!!
Comments!
WannaBskinny: I drink carrot juice that my mom juices for me. She also juices cucumber and celery. So all that is fresh, but fruit juices are normally store bought. As for how much I get back from the stuff I juice...it depends. Cucumbers give TONS of juice and so does celery. Carrots are pretty good too, just get the big juicing carrots (they're huge!) And you'll be fine. Do you have a juicer? Also about adding you on MSN, do you mean like an email circle? You can always hit me up transparentbeauty@gmail.com
I check my email a million times a day so if you email me you are highly likely to get an email back in record time! Lol :)
Ana Banana: ooh deff race you to size 12! Starting now!
Eva: so the monday post mother's day? Or the monday after that? Either way it'll be so exciting to do it together! :)
Ariadne, heather B, ariana, charlie, lyndee (omg you're back!), red, skinnybusiness (haha, *smiles*), and mina belle (we'll get to 12 together too!) Thank you guys so much for your totally sweet comments!!! Wow, coming back to so much love wiped my week's slate clean! <3<3<3 (times a zillion!)

I can't believe this
My mother is such a bitch. She's skinnier than me, but I normally don't have a big problem with it. She bought a bunch of cloths and was modeling them. She tried on some 14s and they fit snug (she thinks she's a 12) they were from banana republic so they're pretty true to size. She was trying to say they were a "european cut". Then my dad is all "well then you should be able to fit them then scarlet". Then I say "oh well I said I'm a 15, not a 14" and then my mom says "there's no such thing as a 15, you're either a 14 or a 16, so which one are you?" They are assholes. That is all. But I tell ya something, I am gonna be a bony goddess. And they will eat shit. Who's gonna run this town tonight? Me Biatch.

Pardon The Interruption
Hey guys! Sooo, nothing too eventful going on around here. I'm still liquid fasting, but I am going on a short hiatus for uni finals. So until like friday I won't be posting. I'll try to keep up with you guys' blogs as much as possible, but if you don't see me in the comment stream please don't get upset! So as you know I am going to be eating healthily (which just means eating fruits veggies etc) to keep my strength up for finals. Post finals there will be some water fasting right before mother's day, but I'll tell you more about that when I come back.

Ana Banana: yeah, I am deff not in the position to do anything like that, but idk, it was just something that happened, but it won't be happening again. I will be that beacon in the harbor for him. It's just that whenever I act high and mighty he brings up every not perfect thing I have eaten in the past, which is kinda a ridiculous thing to do but it cuts me down a few pegs because I am a spaz about food (obviously). But if I am perfect for a long enough amount of time, I can be high and mighty and he can't say anything to bring me down. It'll be like "oh, eating that pizza again?" "Don't act so above I remember when you did blah blah blah, you're still a tribal member" ( the tribal member thing came from this comment rosie o'donnell made about star jones once) and then I'll say "I haven't eaten solids in two weeks so sorry, you're on your own." Booyah!
