Yes. And so I am boycotting it today. At least until I work out later.
Yesterday I decided to really up my water game and be a water drinking fool! Monday I had made less than stellar food choices and with the scale holding steady at 198, I decided to cleanse my system.
MMM.....water.
160 ounces of it to be exact.
Combined with pretty good food choices. No candy. No Cheetos. Calories around 1200.
Stepped on the scale today and saw 200.0
What I said upon seeing this number, I cannot put in print. So I will use the Webdings font instead....
This is what I said:
(I have edited this post bc I typed really really bad words in Webdings and it was showing up in regular print for some and I didnt want to offend! Just rest assured it was some SERIOUS cussing)
Wow. That was bad.
So I have decided water made me fat.
Sigh. I don't know why I am up to pounds but I am trying to keep these things in mind:
1. I am about 5 days out from my period. (Don't you feel bad for our male lapbanders because they can't use this excuse to explain away weight gain).
2. It could be delayed onset fatness from my behavior on Monday.
3. All that water I drank is living in my cells.
4. It was colder today in Pensacola and that earthquake the other day probably caused the earth to shift off it's axis again, thus changing the gravitational pull of girls named Amy that weighed themselves at 6:30 am this morning...central time.
5. I am not going to go coo coo shit crazy and start eating everything in sight.
6. I am going to bootcamp AND Zumba tonight....so that should help.
oooh, or
7. It is your fault bc you made me do a onederland post and this is karma for something. DAMN I need to seen some clothes out to bandsters to increase my karmic cash!
lol...
So until next time my lovelies...
Keep fighting the good fight! Keep your head up and your salt intake down!

I don't know why this made me laugh so hard, but it did! I blame it on the "onderland" post karma (I secretly dislike that word too). Actually, I'm sure its all the water you drank yesterday! Damn girl! 160 ounces! I actually weighed my 40 ounce water bottle last week cause I would always gain like 2-3 pounds after drinking a full bottle of it and guess what? That 40 ounces of water weighed freaking THREE POUNDS! So, I look at it this way, you basically drank 12 pounds of water yesterday and only was able to pee out about 10 pounds of it ;) The rest should come out soon!
ReplyDeleteUgh....and my comment word verification word for that post was "steaksub". How f*ing cruel is that?! That sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteI definitely think the Earthquake had something to do with it. That and....you said that it wasn't as big a deal as one might think, so that is being put to the test. Like my sweet husband says...."2 poungs, that one good poop!"
ReplyDeleteHave a great day and don't sweat the small stuff!
it was the water when i drink alot like that i am 1-2-3 pounds heavier
ReplyDeletei will only weigh first thing in the morning and after i pee otherwise
i weigh too much lol
Hahaha! I don't have the webdings font. I know exactly what you said.
ReplyDeleteMY VIRGIN EARS!
ReplyDeleteKick ass at Zumba and then report tomorrah!
Smooches cupcake!
Oh my goodness! 160 ounces! You go GIRL!!!!! I don't like that word either!!!! ONEDERLAND! :)
ReplyDelete"Delayed Onset Fatness" -- I love it! Yeah, its the water. I have given up the fight to be perfect about water (or some days, even passable). Let's face it, the food we eat is like 98% of the equation. Sad but true.
ReplyDeleteThe O-land will open its gates once again in no time. (It is a lame word, I agree).
I love you guys and Alexis YOU ARE A GENIUS!! um...I don't know how to spell that word...
ReplyDeletebut thanks for making me feel SO much better!
HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEH!
ReplyDeleteI know what you said to the scale:)
Ha-Freakin'-larious
LMAO @ Alexis and the Steaksub!
ReplyDeleteI believe the #4 reason is the reason for your weightgain! LOL you will not be there for long! PLUS we also have ZUMBA on the 27th! can you really tell im super excited!
Haha, yea webdings isn't web friendly, so pretty much everyone knows what you said. :-P
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't worry about it though. Water-weight sucks but the beauty of it is that it goes away as quickly as it came!
Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?
ReplyDeleteYou are the best excuse maker ever. I thought I was the queen of excuses/reasoning. But NO! You are. Here is my crown and wand thing. They belong to you.
Delayed Onset Fatness! I love it! That is a classic.
Oh, and I think Alexis is the genius. 160 oz. of water weighs 10 lbs. What you did was super hydrate your body and your cells are holding onto it. In 2 days it'll be gone.
I just found out you really can translate webdings to real words. That's what I say to my scale almost every morning. We have what some would consider an abusive relationship.
ReplyDeleteJust don't drink after Zumba tonight, and you'll be down 4 lbs in the AM! HAHAHAHA, yes, I know how to play scale games. I am getting close to a blackbelt, in fact!
ReplyDeleteI blame myself.
ReplyDeleteOk! Call me CRAZY, which most people do anyway, and lets just go ahead and put out there that I am at work and have a lot of times on my hands......I just translated your webdings and it was REALLY FUNNY! I am still laughing! So funny! That is probably exactley what I would have said!!!! Still LAUGHING!
ReplyDeleteAmes~I deciphered your Webdings, you naughty girl you. I would have said the same thing. HUGS!
ReplyDeleteIts the water...your cells are holding it hostage! Its a temperary blip and your gonna be back in onederland in no time,.
ReplyDeleteOmg... I love that my iPhone automatically changed that section of font to a font I could actually read.. Ahaha.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! I just logged on with my iPhone and u are right Amanda! Oh crap! I hope I didn't offend anyone! Shame on you
ReplyDeleteothers who translated it! Bad bloggers! Lol
lol now i have to cut and paste it into word LOL and i vote for #4!
ReplyDeleteAck - that sucks - such a tiny number to go down, you would think your scale would take pity. Keep plugging, Amy. You're killing the weight loss!! xx
ReplyDeleteI drank 200 oz of water the other day and it made me fat as well... my boyfriend said I was drowing myself so I have decided I dont want clear pee anymore
ReplyDeleteDo you know what 160 ounces of water is in litres? US and UK ounces are not the same - not sure what Aussie ounces are. . . but according to Professor Google, you drank 4.75 litres of water.
ReplyDeleteWhew!!! How big is your bladder, woman?? Or maybe Aussie ounces are different. .
Hx
PS I am going to weigh water tomorrow (water in bottles rather than water in myself - I don't think that 160 ounces of water, as in 4 or 5 litres, weighs ten pounds, so maybe we are talking at cross purposes here - but hey I have loads of 2 litre bottles of water in the house and will weigh them; I guess I could do it now, 'cept i't nearly 2am and I might scare the rest of the household if I creep around stacking water bottles on to the bathroom scales - which are actually in the lounge tonight, long story)
ReplyDeleteAnd since you mentioned it, I am going to drink more water. Does wine count as water?
Hx
#6 definitely.
ReplyDeleteHilarious! Both your post and the above comments. Thanks for the laugh, everyone!
ReplyDeleteThat isn't webdings, Amy...BAH HA HA HA HA!!! I have said something similar to that each and every morning for the past 4 months!!
ReplyDeleteI think I'll wait to do a onederland post until I weigh about, oh, I don't know, 170 or so since then I should be pretty safe from the yo yo. At least we don't have the old fashioned scales where you would have to move the weight up and down at 50 lbs. increments.
ReplyDeleteYou are doing so well and you look AWESOME! I need some tips from you to help me get these last 20 lbs off! But here is something that might make you feel better...I was watching some show last week..(I think it was Dr. Oz but my memory escapes me) anyhoo...he said that you can drink 8oz of water just before getting on the scale and it could show a one pound gain...so maybe all those ounces were hanging around on you and as soon as you pee a few times and work out it will be gone! :) Its probably gone now since I am late commenting on this post...
