    I don't think I've ever made an accountability thread. But here goes! I weighed in this morning at 96lbs. and want to be 91 or less by Christmas (about 3 weeks to lose 5lbs, shouldn't be too hard, right?). I'm also completing my transition from vegetarian to vegan for ethical reasons. My plan is to kick start both the weight loss and the transition by going on a three-day liquid fast, starting today (unless it ends up being impossible bc I have breakfast w my father, in which case I will start tomorrow. Will add rules/progress pics later.

        My food diary from today. I got some solid food at breakfast and also wanted to try out the vegan cream cheese I got today while at the grocery, so I'll start my liquid fast tomorrow, no biggie. I did squeeze some smoothies in to try and perfect my recipe for tomorrow, and unfortunately went over my preferred cals (500-600) but everything was vegan so I'm trying not to stress too badly.

          Also, my Fitbit feed. Hopefully not finished moving for tonight but wanted to upload just in case - it's been a rainy day so I can't fault myself too much. Tomorrow will be better.

            Today should be a great day for exercise, as I have to make an hour walk into town to try and make things work between me and my on/off boyfriend, then walk around while in town, and possibly also walk home. So hopefully I can manage avoiding food while out, or maybe I'll bring a small snack? Either way I don't think my fast will work today either, but we shall see. At least this vegan thing has gotten much easier the past few days, I feel great. Wish me luck and a high step count! Hahah. Will check back in later.


            EDIT: Finished my log for today, not too bad.

                    Today was okay so far as exercise, I won 2/3 of my weekly FitBit challenges (for the first time, yay!) and managed to walk a good bit. May or may not take another short walk before bed but figured I'd post this now in case I forget later.

                    Food-wise, again a bit more than I like, but I did exercise a good bit, so... I'm trying not to beat myself up.

                      Sooo I haven't recorded anything here in a few days bc my FitBit hasn't been working properly, it's snowed so I haven't exercised much, and I got a new phone so I have to find my old diet app again (if anyone actually reads this and knows what the diary app in my previous posts is, please lmk, I found it thru another post on MPA).

                        Goal for tonight, 20000 steps and I'll let myself buy the $50 in planner stickers I want for the new year, currently at 12000ish steps.

                              Forgot to post this yesterday. Never made it to 20000 again but at least I got close, and would have finished had my stomach not started majorly cramping.

                                    I've sort of abandoned this thread bc I've been posting my exercise/intake on the Peach app, but I've been doing pretty well and plan on remembering to post here again (esp. in the New Year).

                                          Updates:
                                          • I stopped tracking my intake on a calorie-counter app and started using my Notes app instead bc for whatever reason it's more motivating to me if I actually have to go and look up the calories/etc myself.
                                          • I had a bad bout of depression and stopped exercising as often, and though I've still been restricting, it's been higher than normal. So I'm back at 102.2lbs, and right now am trying to get back under 98, but I think I've decided my UGW (for now) is 89 instead of 91. So - going to start exercising again (esp w the weather making a turn for the better!) and lowering my intake.
                                          • I got a new FitBit (the Charge HR instead of my old Flex). I love it! <3
                                          So anyway, today's intake so far (before I forget) is:
                                          • Breakfast: 10 strawberries (40) + 1 banana (100) + 3/4 cup Cheerios (75) + 1/4 cup almond milk (15) = 230
                                          • Lunch: 2 servings mini potatoes (160) = 160
                                          • TOT: 390
                                          And I plan to stay under 500, so hopefully I can wait until dinner without snacking.

                                          EDIT: Dinner was ~½ a burrito bowl (270), so total for the day was 660. A bit over what I wanted, but still p good.

                                                So I didn't get back to the gym yesterday, and I went over my goal, but I got my 10000 steps in and got on my stationary bike to "make up" for it. 89e66ee82eb87a21d77b872bcd580206.jpg

                                                    Also I took this pic to send to a friend of my new lighters and I dig how small my thigh looks even though it's not accurate:
                                                    6e99f5eb7f77202d84d587b4ede220ad.jpg

                                                    And apparently I'm going to a concert w a friend tonight and I'm super excited but have no idea what to wear. Will possibly post an update.

                                                          Okay so, yesterday I did not end up going to the concert bc tickets were sold out and I have no idea how much or what I've eaten today or yesterday bc my best friend and on/off boyfriend of 4 years died yesterday. I'm trying to cope as best I can, and what I stuff in my face is the least of my concerns right now honestly. I'm heartbroken; I never imagined things would happen this way and I feel absolutely terrible. I know I shouldn't think it is, but I can't help but feel I could have changed it if things had happened differently, or that it's partially my fault. I'm trying to keep my head on straight but I've never felt a connection to someone like I did him. It always seems to be those who have the most life in them that go too soon.

                                                                Finally starting to rein in my eating after these past two weeks of grief-induced not giving a fuck. I just want to feel thin again.

                                                                  I'm back, guess I'll start updating here again. I'm down to 94lbs again, aiming for 90 right now. I no longer live near my gym, so my exercise routine is just about nonexistant rn so if anyone's following, expect mostly intake, body checks, etc. from here on out!
