Day 61 - 55 day left of all liquid

I am really hoping to lose another 25 pounds in the next 55 days.  But I think that I am on a plateau so that may not be as easy as I think.  By using my calculations of calories in and calories out I should be 10 less then what I am, so either my body has gone in that dreaded "starvation" mode or is on a plateau.  

Now it would be nice if it was a plateau so I would be here for a few weeks and then drop like 10 pounds in one week.  Catch up if you would.  

I know this is suppose to be about the diet, but unlike anorexia I am not totally obsessed with food.  Because I can't eat, I have this whole attitude right now that food is fuel.  When I get feeling a little hungry I grab a shake, their are no cravings and I don't feel like I am missing out.  Some interesting changes are that I am finding that when I get bored I am no longer heading towards the fridge, but putting on my walking shoes and heading for the door.  If I have any obsession it is about the dang walking.  I fret about it, think about, talk to myself about it...if you could have heard my conversation in the car last night...  

There are some smells that do trigger a response, but most foods smells I just find nasty.  We went to the Dickens Faire last weekend and the stick of food was just that - nasty.  When I come home and smell TH cooking something I just want to get away from that smell.  But at the theater yesterday the smell of popcorn was wonderful.  I decided that I am going to get one of the popcorn carts and have fresh popcorn rather then that nasty microwave stuff.

So I can finish up these last 55 days (maybe 62 for me) and then I will start to worry about food.  I have a plan in place - but you know what they say about plans.
