So the girls were sent home today with hand, foot and mouth disease ... I love the fact I'm home with my babies, but I'm not living the fact I gotta feed them lunch lol.
I could get through skipping breakfast just fine, but I'm having a hard time ignoring taking a taste of their tuna sandwiches for lunch. The time I'm most hungry, of course. This is a ton of willpower ... But my weight today is 225.5lbs ... That helps me get through :).

Day 8 - 1st official weigh in
So, slap on the wrist -- I pigged out yesterday. Pizza, popcorn, cheese poofs -- oh yeah. Everything. But it was family day, so who can blame me?
What's my official weight after a week? Drum roll, please.
...........
228lb!
So I lost 2 pounds. It could be better, but I also haven't been following the diet to a T this week like I should have. No worries now, though. Celebrations are now put aside, so I should be back on the straight and narrow starting today :).
As a farewell note ... Can I just say I had a hard time eating pizza last night? Normally I could eat 2 medium pizzas all to myself. I couldn't even finish one!! So that's an improvement all on its own, right? :).

Day 6
I have missed quite a bit. I'm sorry. Being stuck at home with 2 sick babies drags me away from my phone. However, I'm pleased to say that I have successfully stayed away from food! I made Duck A-La King (one of my favourite dishes I should add), and I only had 1 plate! I ate as much as my toddler did. AND, as a special added bonus to myself, I also felt FULL! I couldn't believe it.
For fun, I went to check my weight after the girls went to bed (30 min after eating). I have lost 7 pounds!!! I weigh 223.5lbs!! Someone catch me, I just might faint!
It's been hard. I'm starving, and hurting I'm so hungry ... But it's working. I feel wonderful. I can't believe how much I used to eat ... I'm down to 200-500 calories a day by eating dinner with my girls (and the occasional tea at night), and I never thought I'd ever say that I LOST weight!!
My main "weigh in" isn't until Monday ... But for right now, I am doing a happy dance :). I think I'm gonna start going to the gym on Tuesday! (Monday is Family Day here in Canada. We're having a girls night in since they're off school for the day ;) )

Day 3
So, I missed day 2, mostly because I forgot it was Valentine's day lol.
I did very good on day 1! Only had a small, quarter filled bowl of soup, and I had leftovers for once! Wow. Even I'm impressed. But then Valentine's day came, and my partner surprised me with breakfast ... I'm not gonna say no to him. So we went out. I had a feta omlette with home fries and chocolate milk ... Home fries were yummy, the chocolate milk was watered down, and the omlette was a joke. It had ZERO taste! I don't even think they put any salt or pepper on it. What a waste of $12. I could've made better at home!! ... But it was sweet.
While my partner and I "Gordon Ramsey'd" the diner he took me to, I forgot all about the water diet. It was just too nice of a day.
Today, however, I succeeded! I haven't had a thing, and although I'm starving, I'm enjoying myself. I'll be having chicken burgers tonight (fast food) since we're moving and everything is packed away for the night. But I plan to go back to homemade meals starting tomorrow night ! Stay tuned :).

Day 1
So, this will be a super, simplistic blog ... Sorry if it's not fancy. I don't have much time to blog!
Anyway, I'm sure you'd like to know why this is considered "Unhealthy" ... Because it is. I'll be doing exactly what we're told NOT to do. Unfortunately, traditional weight loss has failed me, and I cannot afford outside help (like surgery or trainers). So, out of desperation, I've now resorted to unhealthy ways ...
Why would I make a blog about this? Mostly for myself. I want to look back on this and see if I've failed or succeeded. However, it can be for everyone else too. We'll all find out what will happen soon!
So day one ... I'm already hating this. I chose to do the water diet this time. I can't do it legitimately, since I have 2 little girls who I must eat dinner with. But, I can have much less than normal for dinner, so they don't feel like they're eating alone. I've made vegetable beef soup for dinner. I'm a big fan of this soup, so I need to control myself (which is hard for me). I've been making pastas for dinner since my 2 year old is obsessive over noodles currently ... This'll be a good test to see if I can finally switch it up a bit!
I currently weigh 229.5lbs ... I am 23. I've never been a low weight before. This week, I've been asked 3 times if I was pregnant. The first time at my daycare, second on the elevator of my apartment, and the third by my own step dad ... I can't take this anymore. So I'm going to try very hard to make sure I don't mess up. I'm starving already ... I've drank 5 water bottles so far. It's not doing much for the hunger part of things.
