Fasting & Life Updates!

As most of you know I am trying something new with the last leg of my weight loss.
Yes I been told im brave and crazy.
But it is what it is and its not fucking easy!
X'use my french

I been getting more irked then normal, biting peoples heads off, among other things!
Hubby also gets wind sometimes when I am nearing the end of my fasting hours when hes not at work anyway

The last 3 weeks been a on and off again trial with fasting.
I went 5 days of fasting then I took a few days off cause of comicon.
Can't really fast for the whole time during comicon mainly cause i went to a daytime schedule for 3 days.
Plus walking 8+ hours, you get pretty hungry!
Though staying on diet was on point exp since I had Jeff with me who is also into a fitness journey, lost all his weight & been bulking like crazy!
I met him online gaming shortly after Joel and I got married !
He comes into town every year for comicon and that's how we were able to meet face to face many years ago!

Fasting been going well though, 3 weeks on and off fasting ive lost another 4 inches in my waist (total of 68 inches now) and another 3.5lbs (1/2lb shy of 165lbs lost)

Guess we will see what next week brings when I weigh/measure in on Tuesday!

So right now I am just drinking coffee (black), watching Joel eat Banana bread i made him for breakfast drooling hardcore on the inside grinding my teeth!

I may have to start wearing my weight lifting bite plate during fasting times

Reason i decided to go this route is cause after almost 3 years (3 years this May) of doing 3 meals and 3 snacks with high protein/low carb/high good fats
I kept hitting a brick wall and not getting UNDER 200 "yet"
Even adding more protein and getting those cheat meals in
I kept hitting a wall
Its been rather annoying, even all the set backs over the years
Even gaining 50lbs back listening to a trainer telling me to eat more.
Its been a roller coaster !!

Ideal weight wise they say for me 135-155
If i want 155 thats another 80lbs left
I can tell you im gonna get NO WHERE near that!
Mainly cause my body has changed A LOT over the years & it would look sick that small
I mean sick in a bad way.

Im not looking to get ripped/jacked with muscle either
Just not something that is me or im into
Flat tummy, little toned, ill be happy
Dana Brooke, Asuka any of those ladies
Sure

It is possible to be done & succeed!

Other then that
Ive had some ppl ask how I been doing after Salem passed
Honestly I haven't cried as much as I liked/wanted too
I think its because im trying to stay strong for our other kitty.

Shes got a super broken heart and the cat expert i spoke with at a local shelter and even hubby mentioned it before hand
She is feeling like Salem abandoned her.
Thing is, she didn't of course.
But she don't know that, and you can't really explain to a kitty that she didn't, can't explain death etc either

So trying to get playtime and get a plug in that puts off a scent only Mom cats give, gotta look for a toy that purrs & gives off warmth for her
See if it helps, at least what the expert said
We thought about getting another kitty but we were told to try this first just in case we get another cat and it didn't workout
I am just sad seeing her sad, chewing her fur out and runny nose (our vet said its due to the grief/stress)
It breaks my heart into a billion slices
Exp when i gotta go to the gym or do errands, clean the house etc....
and she tries to follow me out the door

Gym also been on and off last 2 months
Joel hurt his foot and was unable to go due to not being able to put a lot of weight on it
Bad sprain
He missed the 2 steps one night heading out to the gym when he turned to say, "hey Tina look at the fog" and there he went
Then the weather with all the ice/rain/snow even snow-thunderstorms.
Having inches of ice on your car and being iced/snowed in is never fun

But we got a lot of our tv shows/movies watched/rewatched
So thats a plus!

Weather is trying to turn nice
Even if its cold but no snow/ice/rain
that be nice too!
10 months til the end of the year, id love to be were i wanna be by my birthday
so I can rid all the negative BS that held me back for years

But anyway, gonna go run some more dungeons, about to have another 70!
Almost 69 on red mage
warrior hit 70 over the weekend

Then 4 classes left!

Samauri
Ninja
Dragoon
Machinist

They are all lvl 65, so wont take long

I hope your all doing well!

Now I have pizza on the brain........ one hour left......
