Ok so update
Ok so I was supposed to start restriction again on the 26th but that hasn't worked. I'm trying to be smart about this this time. My mental state is the same but I dont want to lose 10 lbs either and have my folks or Brian notice and get all over my ass again.
So Brian's birthday dinner is on Sunday night. Monday I start restriction because he and I are going away (15 miles up the road) as he's on vacation and it's his birthday. Still, that means being as I have to work every morning, and he knows I get free lunch at work, when I get back to the hotel after I can just say I ate breakfast and lunch at work. I'll stock the hotel fridge with fruit cups and have what he thinks is dessert.
I know I have to restrict and STRONGLY. I can't do the 1000 calories a day because I always go over. It's got to be like LITTLE. Like when I went to Montana to meet Ryan, lost the 20 lbs in 2 weeks by eating only pickle slices = about what? 60 calories a day. I'm going to start on more than that because then when I stall I can drop my calorie intake.
Last I looked I was 248..I'll weigh again before Monday just because I dont want to actually drop 5 lbs, get on the scale and it. I'll post my new weight when I rebegin....for the sake of trying to sound sane I'll say my goal for my birthday (march 8th) which is 9 weeks from when I will begin, is 30 lbs. That's 3.3 lbs a week....easy..but that means I can feel great when I exceed that.
