Losing Weight with Starscream

[shilala]

216.2 this morning, 218.6 right now, all fed and hydrated.
I haven't seen 216 for 10 years.
I'd be even better, but I had a date for lunch and ate a crab cake and 5 glasses of lemon water. Ate all the green stuff, too. It was at Ruby Tuesday's, it was good, too.
The date went real well, too. A chick my age. Too smart and good looking though. She's got way too much sense to get mixed up with me.

You never know, if you play your cards right...


I love Ruby Tuesdays, but I always go overboard when I eat there.

Down to 203.8, and feeling pretty good about it!

I'm about to be at the inlaws for a couple of weeks though, we'll see what kind of damage that does to my progress...

That post was from 6/15.
Turns out she didn't have all that much sense, after all.
Lisa and I were talking this evening about dinner and she mentioned surf and turf burgers at Applebees.
Somehow that came around to Salmon patties and crab cakes, and she mentioned the crab cakes at Ruby Tuesday's. I told her I thought I remembered having crab cakes when we went out "way back when".
Amazing how things change in a few short months.
I'm 25 pounds lighter and one good woman heavier.

Well mark that as a really crappy finish to the week. I managed to gain almost 8 lbs.

I think I must be retaining water. Could it be that time of the month again already?

On a positive note, I tried on the suit I got married in 9 years ago and it still fit. The pants were just a touch snug and the jacket was just a little tight in the shoulders. Still passable though, as long as this "water" comes back off again soon.

Member this, Andy? It appears that crab cakes are the way to a woman's heart, cause I married this date. Turns out she weren't that smart after all.
I'm skinnier right now than I was then, which is great. Last time I proved it could come off, this time is for proving it can stay off.
I'm thinking at that point I had lost 35 pounds and before it was all over, I lost another 30. I'm gonna go check, I might not have gotten past 200.
