ITS FOR REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quickie here. .my restriction is for real.. I thought my body was playing a joke on  me.. but OMG I am really just able to eat small amounts..and then I AM FULL and not just for a nano second.. for like 3 hours.. and the burping that accompanies the fullness.. Let's just say I think I could take the big time belchers down!!

Its lunch time (usually when I get a break between calls) and I have no sense of hunger (nada).. So I am wondering ----do I eat.. do I not eat.. do I worry about my proteins getting in throughout the day.. do I just say the hell with it and do a protein crunch at the end of the day...
Who would think I would have this kind of conundrum???
BTW, I have read on several blogs about logging food in on FITDAY (or thedailyplate).. I LOVE FITDAY.. I can aimlessly log my food in during BORING conference calls.  It has so many different screens and I have included below the calorie intake  projection for me to lose 25 lbs by 01 May 2010 at a rate of 2 lbs per week. It's. Absolutely Doable..  check out the site if  you haven't already...

                         Your Calorie Balance Equation


Calories You Burn -  Calorie Restriction = Calorie You Can Eat

   2,613        minus         1,027         =              1,586

I feel like all of the little secrets are presenting to me .. and I am really starting to figure this out... yipeee!! Happiness abounds.. I know I am probably starting to sound annoying.. oh well...
 
One last thing today is my 3 month bandiversary... so for newbies out there.. you may get to restriction sooner than this (and I hope you do) but you also may be a slow poke like me and have to wait it out.. just want to share my personal experience..

  4. It took me six!!! I lost little bits along the way but didn't really get great restriction until six months. Three is good.
