I didn't have time yesterday morning to make my requisite shake, so I ate two over-medium eggs at the cafe downstairs instead. Then for lunch I had a 7-layer burrito with chicken (No tortilla and easy on the rice). As a snack I had half a banana and a strawberry. For dinner I had 6 tater tots and a scoop of turkey sloppy joe with about 1/4 oz of cheese sprinkled on. No bun. I feel like I ate a lot. I know I didn't really... compared to what I ate before surgery, this was nothing. Compared to the week post-op though, this was huge. I'm pretty sure that's why there was no loss. (It could also be the lack of #2 for three days, if you know what I mean.)
I guess I can't expect to lose every day, and at some point it's going to level out because I don't get filled for 5 more weeks, but still! I was on a pretty big high from having lost that 14 pounds. Maybe tomorrow I'll drop that pound to 239. That would be great!
I'm being pretty good today. I had a Banana Muscle Milk for breakfast - 25 grams of protein, baby! I have 4 strawberries in a bag for snacking in case I get peckish. And I will have soup for lunch. Hopefully I won't be starving when I get home this afternoon.
I'm keeping up with my water pretty well. I had at least 50 oz yesterday, and then a glass of tea. So far today I've had most of 20 oz, and will refill the bottle in a little bit as soon as this is gone, so by the time I leave here (work) today I will be at 40 oz.
I'm setting some goals for myself for the remaining part of the week. Lets call them "Self Improvement Goals". Here they are:
- Two 5 minutes sets of "Squat/Shoulders/Sky" per day.
- Review French words on Babbel.com 20 mins per day.
- Make my shakes at night, for use the next day.
- Walk for 20 minutes per day.
- Hit the 239 lbs. (or below) mark on the scale!
Ok, well, that's all for now. Let's see how the rest of this week goes, if all goes well I'll put up new goals for next week.
Current weight: 240 lbs

In the begining that would happen to me too and I would always get down on myself for it. I would be doing so well and loose a bunch of weight but then one day I would eat more than normal(but still not bad) and I wouldn't lose anything or I would gain. it's kind of leveled out now though. I found out that when you eat so little for so long your body will go in starvation mode and as soon as you eat a little more your body stores all the calories.
