My Weight Loss?

Friday, 18 April 2008 at 3:09 pm (My Diet) (, , , , )

I’m still doing the whole “no buying groceries” thing.  I’ve had spaghetti for lunch and dinner everyday…well…for lunch, anyway.  Last night I took a nap that led me to sleep from 6:45 to 10:15pm when my boyfriend called and woke me.  This frustrated me because I didn’t want to miss The Office or Scrubs and had actually set my alarm for 7:30 so I’d have time to fix dinner and watch TV.  Then I got to read as my best friend and I gchatted that she couldn’t BELIEVE that I’d missed it, that it was THE BEST EVER!!!  MAJOR PLOT DEVELOPMENTS!  MAY-JOR!  Sigh.

Anyway, I slept through dinner, but I forced myself to bake some biscuits to add to my lunch for today so that I wouldn’t get hungry because I knew that I wouldn’t buy anything no matter how hungry I might be.  I can’t decide yet if this whole thing is healthy for me.  I was afraid that sticking to the pantry foods would cause me to gain weight, but I actually feel thinner (this MIGHT be from missing dinner two nights in a row, but who knows?).  I haven’t weighed myself yet, but it would be awesome if this financial goal was helping a weight goal, too.  I want to weigh between 130-35, and when I weighed myself last week I was at about 140.  I’m quite tall, so on graphs that show how much a person should weigh given his/her height, I should weigh between 125-145.  The last time I was at 125 I was WAY too thin, though, and it took forever to gain weight back, so I definitely do not want to go that low again; I just want to fit into my old work clothes that are sitting in my closet.

In other news, I signed up for the ING Direct Orange Savings Account.  I received $25 just for depositing $250.  For each referral I give, I get $10.  So far I’ve been credited with an extra $20.  If anyone would like a referral for the savings account or the checking account, just e-mail me at livingpaychecktopaycheck at gmail dot com.  Just tell which account you want; the same rules apply to get the $25.

My weekend starts in less than an hour now!  Yay!
