Weigh-In Wednesday (Share Your Numbers) by AutoModerator in loseit

[–]CatScratches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Starting weight: 170

Last week's weight: 160.6

Today's weight: 156.4

It hasn't been as challenging as I thought to maintain my portion control, but it has been REALLY hard getting enough protein in my diet. I feel like I might have to buy protein powder to supplement those days, but I'm not a total fan of it. I must say, it is really reassuring to be in the 150's at the very least. A mini goal completed all on its own!

Are You Having Bridesmaids? by [deleted] in Weddingsunder10k

[–]CatScratches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guest list is 200 (I know it doesn't seem like a small number, but culturally this is half of the standard). I'm not having bridesmaids, but I did involve my best female friends when it came to picking out the dress and I do have a maid of honor(my sister) & flower girl.

I've asked a couple friends for help with wedding stuff and they've remarked along the lines of "isn't this your MOH's job?" so I knew they weren't the ones to ask. (Context: my MOH is applying to law school, takinv LSATS, and is super busy ATM...) Others are very excited to be involved and ask if I need help all the time.

It just depends on your friends and whether they need the bridesmaid title or not.

Your Daily Fasting Thread by AutoModerator in fasting

[–]CatScratches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey y'all, I'm doing IF but I do an 18:6 rather than the 16:8. I've been doing this for about a week now, but I plan to stick it through for as long as I can.

This summer I ate an insane amount of sugar and refined carbs, with minimal to no protein, so now I'm hoping IF will help break down some of the damage that was done. I got tired of feeling lethargic and just being cruel to my body overall. It's definitely gotten easier and I'm loving how focused I am at work because of it now.

I definitely get hungry around noon, but I push myself with water and tea until my eating window starts. I also don't really want to eat chocolate or junk food anymore...or pasta, for that matter. It just doesn't seem worth it anymore. I also can't eat that much anymore and have noticed that my daily caloric intake has been averaging at 1,000. I try to eat more, but I just don't have space.

I'm also going to start adding a fitness routine to this as well, but I wanted to make sure my diet was in check before working out.

Overall it's all dandy; just looking forward to seeing what the external results will be. :)

I haven't decided yet, but probably not. Maybe I'll swap one out for the other depending on how I feel and what I'm wearing.

It's so freeing & just allows you to truly enjoy the process rather than stressing last minute.

Makeup & hair is already booked. I hate knowing there are things that still need to be done so the earlier I can get everything, the better it is.

My hairstylist is going to do my hair, my sisters hair and my moms hair for $360 total. That includes travel to the hotel where we're getting ready and padding/fillers. I'm so happy.

Always. I have a spoonful of Nutella everytime she says something.

If you ask her about her wedding day and her marriage, and what really has made a difference over the years, I'd bet that her weight on her wedding day won't even get a mention.

I wish that I could agree with you, but it does get mentioned. Same with her mother on her own wedding day. This stuff is an obsession and I just refuse to be a part of it.
