Nikki222 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 oh my goodness guys... It is Canadian thanksgiving this weekend and I will be in the middle of rural nowhere with a ukranian grandmother who cooks the most divine food I have ever had in my entire life. My willpower at work has been phenomenal but I don't know if I can stand it out there. Keep me in your thoughts this weekend. I may be completely round when I get back... 4 Half Orc Ranger Lvl 3[ STR7.5 | DEX2 | STA6 | CON7.5 | WIS6.5 | CHA5 ]Goals:Achieve target weight: 175lbsStarting weight: 238Current Weight: 225 21%21% Current Challenge Link to comment
Pavelluvs2eat Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Grandmothers are hard. Mine loved bacon fat. And, well, bacon. My only currently living grandmother does things to potatoes..they're not just mashed. They are turned to heaven. I can't even explain - like clouds in buttery potato form. 3 My body tells me no, but I want more! I. Want. More! Current ChallengePavel Sneaks Back In Level 2Half OrcAssassin Link to comment
Alexandrite Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Will be thinking of you!!Do a crazy hike or pullups off a tree or something before eating, every time that weekend? Then your body will simply burn everything you put into it if you keep it within reason. Remember, its not, "I cant eat that." It is "I don't eat *that* much now" or "I don't need so much." If you limit the damage of unexpected foods and balance it by exercising, it will be easier to bounce back, and you will still enjoy a weekend with family and not insult the chef. =)- Mobile communication granted. 1 Brain-Building Assassin, a.k.a Radical Domestic Jill-of-All-Trades Battle Log | Challenges: Current |18 |17 |16 |15 |14 |13 |12 |11 |10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 Isaiah 40:30-31 Link to comment

alienjenn Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 it's just one weekend you can mitigate the effects of grannys cooking... do push ups or sit ups or pull ups or burpees.... for every portion you have of "off plan" foodz do 10 reps... drink a big glass of water (or two) before you sit down to eat... then continue drinking... it will help you feel full and keep your portions down... don't freak out too much even if you do gain a couple pounds... because it will probably just be water weight... you have to eat 3500 calories OVER maintenance to gain a pound... which is a LOT more than you think... especially if you do the reps for off plan foodz 2 Level 10.4 Wood-Elf, Ranger - specializing in demon fighting "doing the impossible since 2012 :D" - Librarian of Doom facebook battle log level 50 WOOT Backstory CNF2014 current (not challenge - doing a battle log this time) Spoiler * This is the day the Lord has made, rejoice in it and be glad.

Nikki222 Posted October 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 WOOT moment! I ran 4 km last night (for a short(ish) chubby girl like me who, until recently, despised running, this is impressive) and I did it in half an hour! soooo my goal of getting 5km in 45 minutes is pretty much beat, I just have to actually, you know.. do it!
