I guess this is what I am doing.

I weighed myself thinking I should be devoid enough of excess liquid and digested substances....lol

166 lbs, and 5ft 6 inches...

It is pretty horrendous. For me, anyhow. I am small boned so for me to carry 166 lbs means its more fat than a large boned person would have, and I am even more flesh than the average 166 pound individual of my gender and height most likely. Oh well. Whatever. Moving on.

I'm going to give the 'extreme thing' a try right off the bat. I just want to see what I can do under pressure, something I've run from very intentionally these last few years.

In Feb - Lose 20 lbs
In Mar - Lose 13 lbs
In April - Lose 13 lbs

Simple does it...
See, it's not likely to actually work out to those numbers, but its a bit of something to start with. I am making my first 'major goal' 120 lbs final weight.
Any further down than that, if I feel it is necessary, would not go lower than 113, which is precisely on the line of underweight/normal for my height and bone structure, according to a possibly outdated chart....lol


So, here is a tentative plan for several days or so. It is not strategic, it is the variety I am trying to look at here....that is it. And then moving into a 'high protein' spell, which tends to kick start weight loss for me. Then as I feel more in-tune with how I will be responding to this, physically and emotionally, I will decide how to do the rest.

Today - hard boiled egg, raw veggies rest of day, one 'garbage' item, greens+ drink. No calorie counting.
Saturday - Fast all day, light popcorn/fruit snack in evening
Sunday - Fruit and raw veggies
Monday - Start high protein regime, stay on it for 2 weeks......

Honestly, yes, I'll be honest, I dunno if I can do this sort of semi-healthy stuff without going into all-or-nothing mode, or wanting to just completely fast, or what the hell will happen to me. I haven't tried to 'get control' so long. But one look at my body, and you know that eating disorder or not, it's about time to 'get control'. No doubt about it.
I am going to take and post a body shot tomorrow so we can all look back in a month and notice 20 pounds missing. lol
