I took a couple of new pictures since I haven’t taken any since February and I’ve lost more weight since then.I’m really not sure what I weigh in this picture. I think it is probably higher than 323, but I don’t know for sure. This picture was taken at a wedding in 2007.
This one was taken at a pre-wedding party in 2007.
This picture was taken yesterday. I just wish the lighting had been a touch better so you could really see my mutant white hands from wearing biking gloves. 😀
The obligatory belt picture. Just about 18 inches from the belt hole I used to use to the one I now use. About 137 plus pounds gone from the top pictures to the bottom pictures.
Weight Statistics
323/181.7/173
Hmmm. I’m a bit surprised by that drop. I guess the phantom weight gain disappeared but now we have a bit of a phantom weight loss. I wasn’t expecting a drop after my FRIED SHRIMP POBOY FEAST. 😛
Yesterday’s Meal Plan
Breakfast – None
Lunch – Over stuffed fried shrimp poboy
Dinner – None
Snack – None
Calories – 1500
I am not sure if I heard angel trumpets or devil trombones but the chorus was singing hallelujah as I ate the shrimp poboy. It was fantastic. Who knew fried food tasted so good? 😛
Skipped meals the rest of the day but in truth the poboy was huge and had almost as many shrimp off the bread as on the bread so I really wasn’t the least bit hungry last night.
I’m still thirsty from the salt which is why I expected at minimum a water gain today. Speaking of water……
IT RAINED!!! Yesterday afternoon is was looking gloomy and it actually rained. I got a rain day and a shrimp poboy all in one day. 😀
Biking Update
Rain day!!!

Tip Of The Day
Take a vacation.
One of my dear readers came up with this tip and I am going to try it out.
The bike and the wind have been causing me all sorts of misery so I am going to take a week off. Not sure when. I’ll probably wait for July when the heat starts to melt the asphalt but at some point in July, I am going to take a full week off from the bike ride.
Similar to knowing you can cheat on the diet, thus making it easier to hold on to your sanity, I think knowing I can take a week off from the bike will somehow make it a little easier to hit the levee.
Oh, Shonnie gave me the vacation idea. Here is her site. http://diaryofanangryfatwoman.wordpress.com/
Good tip, thanks.
Happy dieting see you tomorrow and have a great weekend
