Well this morning my weight was 99.6KG, double figures, I actually dont remember when I was this weight before but I guess it was when my wife and I were DINKS and lived in the 1br flat in Mosman in Sydney, so around 12 years ago.
I havent used big colored type yet but just this once.
"Yesterday was the last day of my life that I weighed three figures"
Happy day for me!
Now that I am under 100 there are not much in the way of meaningful mini goals. Between 99.9 and my marriage weight and cohen recommended 90~91KG. But will think of something; maybe 96KG...that would mean one month more (@ 6KG/month) to reach the upper limit of Cohen recommend weight range.
100.00 kilos - take a photo of the scale because YOU WILL NEVER, EVER, WEIGH 100.00 KILOS AGAIN - EVER AGAIN - FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!!!
This is wonderful news, particularly so because of the cultural differences and the lack of support at home.
I hope that Mrs lessfatty is starting to see her handsome husband emerge and is starting to feel proud of you, even if she won't admit to that quite yet!
Opps, Didnt take a photo but when I get home tonight after drinking my water if I did weigh myself I will probably weigh in at 100KG. But I wont; it will be disappointing to see 100kg again! 100KG and me are officially divorced, separated and have inreconcilable differences, 100KG will not be allowed back into my life. 100KG can go find someone else to live with!!
Mrs Lessfatty of course isnt saying too much, two days ago we had a period of silence when I refused to eat the kids bit of left over steak for my dinner. "Why dont you eat it ? it is UNDER your allowance so it will be OK if you just eat it with some vegetables", so I said that it is important to eat exactly the correct amounts and then I got "so you expect ME to eat it, and for me to get fat", so I said "NO, just throw it away if you dont want it", followed by "stupid diet" and a japanese phrase used with children that roughly translates to "you should review/reflect upon your stupid behavior" and 2 hours of silence.
10 year old daughter said I am now a little less embarrasing to be around, it is almost acceptable if I come to the school festival but with the following simple rules; I dont talk to anyone and wear a suit, that's progress
.
Garlic: My internet plan document has garlic as an allowed food, I have been including it frequently, plarticularly in stir "fry" ( which is actually more a "dry grill" in a non stick fry pan)
Myshy Sssh. but a little secret this is the first real "diet" plan I have really been on, the other diets where my own doing/making; basically lots of of green leafy vegetables with salad dressing, brown bread and rice, fish most days, infrequent meat. Quite healthy and I lost weight, I must admit I was on average more hungry than I am on Cohen diet. However because I had no strict rules, it was easy to "move the line", I never crossed the line because I always simple redefined where the line was; "Low fat Milk coffee is now OK". I actually have never reached my goal weight ever with a diet, but sometime soon I will.
AsyOZ As night follows day you will also feel like me today when I got under 100KG. Your lost so far is awsome, and at your rate of loss we will both cross the line together.
Living IT I am wondering what your husband thought when he came home at 1am and found the lady he loves, crying into a plate of chicken and vegetables? "does it taste that bad? maybe a little chilli or black pepper will help?" It appears to me that a womans internal world is so much fuller with emotionals and human complexites that men just cannot grasp the full picture. Whilst I have no idea about the problem(s) that presently prevent you having a baby; getting bit healthier each day and having hubby at home and not to tired from work will certainly be two key areas to work on. And as a man I have to tell you "relax and dont worry so much"...which of course is what all men say to no effect.
I found it very humorous your descriptions about your frustrations; I could imagine someone in their bed hearing something at 2am in the morning, they stick their head out the window and say: "Ruth, there's a naked fat woman running down the street cursing at the moon! should I call the police?" for which Ruth's reply is "Harrold come back to bed, leave her alone she is probably on a diet and had a bad day with her taxes".
