I hope you have a fabulous Easter weekend.

One more pound gone!

Hi All,

I'm still pretty sick with this cold/flu bug, but I lost one more pound this week.  I have a deep nasty cough and I relapsed with a fever again last night.  My body is still fighting this thing off.  I feel like crap, but happy to still be on track.

Sick as a dog.

I'M SHRINKING! ~ 65 pounds & 44 1/2 inches lost so far!

I lost one more pound this week!  IT'S SLOW BUT STEADY.  : )

I also caught the "Cold of the Century".  I had to come home from work yesterday because I was so friggin sick.  I flopped down on the bed and slept from 1pm to 7pm, got up ate a hot bowl of soup and then went back to bed and slept another 9 hours.  I am feeling better today, but may need to lay low this weekend.

I'm sure my immune system is low due to stress.  My new job is great, but very busy.  My living situation changed.  The landlord sold the house he has just rented to me and 5 other people.  He also keeps changing his story. We have not been asked to leave, and he said he is not sure what the new owners will want to do, but we will find out in a month or so.  

He has been acting extra weird lately.  He keeps creeping around the house, coming in whenever he wants uninvited and unannounced.  I think he has a crush on one of the women upstairs.  He is getting creepy and I don't feel safe here anymore.  I sat him down and read him the law and we discussed our lease and how it explains he needs to give us 24 hours notice if he is coming to the house.  EVEN THE LEASE HE GAVE US SAYS 24 HRS NOTICE MUST BE GIVEN.  He finally agreed.  Most all of us are looking for new places to live asap.  STRESSFUL STUFF.   The good news is I lost another pound this week!  I keep focused on what IS working in my life. : )

65 pounds & 44 1/2  inches lost so far!


It really feels like it too.  I put on the new suit this morning that I bought for my interview a month ago.  IT LOOKS HUGE ON ME NOW.  It's way too big.  I am starting to see the real change coming in my shape.  I think the Leangains 16/8 intermittent fasting and doing my workout at at the end of my fast at 11:30am daily and eating an almost Keto lifestyle, is burning more fat off me than ever before.  I am getting leaner.  The scale is not moving that fast, but the inches are!  It's REALLY making a difference in blowing through weight loss stalls.

I saw some friends last weekend that I hadn't seen in almost two years.  They were blown away at my change.  It felt extra great, because one of them said some mean shit about me regarding my size and my weight back then.  I'm on my way to feeling better on many levels, but right now, I GOT TO GO BLOW MY NOSE.  I am on track to getting to my goal of 145 pounds this year.

I need one of these.

My ass is still parked at the same weight this week.

Yo All,

So I started my new fun job supporting computational Scientists in Discovery Biology at my NEW AWESOME START-Up JOB this week. Weee!  I work in the Dog Patch of San Francisco everyday from here on out.

I just spent $8.00 for 2 scrambled eggs and 1 sausage patty for breakfast.  I then spent $17.95 for a small bowl of soup and a thin sandwich for lunch. This was my first day on the job. WTF? Yea, I'm in THE BIG CITY.  :  )

How can a tiny tummy girl eat KETO in a fancy pants city on a small budget?  I will soon hopefully show you how.

I got on the scale this morning and nothing changed, thank Bob.   I did drink some serious Tre's Friday Night Indulgences (Low Brow Champagne & TJ Cherry Cider) after I found out our Landlord brought several unannounced rounds of "Investors" throughout the house without notice and the sold our house to them and didn't explain WHF was happening.  He is extra special that way.

When I called him on speaker with everyone renting the house present, he said nothing will change. Sounds shady, but like he somehow worked out his debt issue in a creative way.  We all haven't an ounce of faith in this guy, but we hope he is telling us the truth and that after just moving into this place, that we will not have to all to move again.  WE WILL SOON SEE.  At least one thing is stable in my life, my  income.

I looked around my place of work for cool lofts apartments, rooms for rent, studios etc. and they want $1899 for a walk in closet "Efficiency Studio" with a hot plate. HELL NO.  The Girls & I, live is a house that just sold for $999,000. and we all share the place happily.  United Airlines Attendants, Me & another diva in Biotech, an adorable Barista & a History Teacher/Nanny.

It has been a weird STRESSFUL week.  Amazingly, I did not dive face first into Bi-Rite Creamery.  That actually would be a good way to go.

I bought some nice Microwaveable Re-Sealable Bento Boxes and an Microwave Egg Poacher for work meals.  I have some HFCL meals planned everyday until my first pay check on the 15th.   I hope to have my Leopard Lounge VW Glamper Bus home soon!

Sunday I will pre-make yummy lunches for the week and hopefully will totally  enjoy them. 

AMAZING ICE CREAM!
