Thought on the Pot Thursday

Ya know how everyone else's blog has those cutesy days of the week, where they do something specific that day, each week? "Think about it Thursdays," "Foto Fiesta Friday," "Not Me Mondays," you get the picture.
Well, I've come up with my own. It's neither cutesy or ladylike. It's bound to repulse some people. Eh, whatevs. You no likey, you no lookey.
Here at the office I get a little special time just to myself...it's when I'm using the bathroom. I don't get that at home because usually, there is an audience, or at the very least, someone barges in demanding something or crying. Never fails. The Dude, now he gets all the alone bathroom time he wants. Me? No so much. Anyhow, at work I get to close the door and lock it. Not that there is a need to, but the simple fact that I can. Mwuahahahahaha!
I've mentioned before how Fifi's bathroom is pretty and relaxing. In my brief visits, I always have some kind of odd, kooky, fun thought. Thus, "Thought on the Pot Thursdays" was born.
This week's thought: I wonder how much weight I can subtract from my own weight when accounting for boobage and hair. I have A LOT of both of those. I have large Ta-tas and tons of thick, long, hair.
I'm figuring I could subtract at least 5lbs, maybe as much as 10lbs. Yes, I am ridiculous like that. In my head, I will think about how much weight I can subtract for my shoes, clothes, jewelry, etc. Common, you know you do it too.
Remember WAY back at the beginning of the year when I said I was gonna lose weight? Yeah, well, not so much. As per usual, I gave up fairly quickly. Then I visited my Dad and Step mom and saw how awesome they were doing with their weight loss. I had to know the secret ASAP!
No secret at all. It was just an absolute change in how you think about eating. Now I'm eating 6 times a day. I'm eating a high protein breakfast, where as before I skipped all together. I count calories using the "Lose It" app on my iPhone. I'm accountable for what I put in MY mouth. In just over 2 weeks I've dropped 10lbs. I have more energy. I feel better!
This is something I can stick to. I am never hungry, and don't feel deprived. Now, do I get an occasional chocolate craving? Heck yeah, but I choose wisely and exercise portion control.
Next week's "Thought on the pot Thursday" won't be this in depth...promise.
Now I'm off to figure out a little button thingy, lmao.

So I am curious as to what a typical days meal plan would be! I have always been a skip breakfast - and even some times lunch - person! And I know my metabolism has suffered! If you can give some ideas, it would be appreciated!

You know I think it is probably the counting calories that is the biggest help. Seriously, if you have to mark it down as somehting you ate you will think twice about eating something that is really high in calories.

Yay! for your 10lbs! I am seriously suck in limbo. sigh...

I also wanted to say thank you for stopping by RootsandWings and as always leaving a really nice comment.

I can't wait to hear what you think about using your very own vanilla. Yummm If you leave the beans in you can top off your vanilla with more vodka (or whatever alcohol you are using) and it will dillute it for only a little while before it is back up to full strength again.

Take Care,

P.S. Love the hilarious TOTPT!
