Double Dog Challenge

CHALLENGE RULES
  • YOUR DAILY CALORIC INTAKE IS YOUR GOAL WEIGHT X 11
  • EVERYTHING YOU INGEST COUNTS AND NEEDS TO BE RECORDED
  • YOU DRINK 64 OUNCES OF WATER DAILY (1.89 litres)
  • NO CHEATING AND NO BULLSHIT
  • 2 WEEKS, STARTING 10/25/2010
  • WEIGH IN MONDAY MORNING AND WEIGH IN 11/8/2010
Start weight 200.6

Goal weight 151.0

Therefore I will be eating 151. x 11 = 1661 calories

OK, I got the message late so have started today which is the 27/10/10 for me here in OZ. But that's still OK I think.

I couldn't believe I actually got through the water today, almost peed myself but still managed to drink 1.5 litres while still at work and then another 750ml bottle at home, seemed to become very thirsty tonight.

Food, well I had 300 gms watermelon, 2 eggs, lettuce, 2 white rolls, chicken breast with mayo and of course all that water along with 4 coffees today and a can of pepsi max.

On other news, well its pouring again. 'The husband' along with 'the nephew' decided that they are both going to buy some equipment together and do work from my garage. This was fine, they brought the machinery online for $1209 but didn't realize it had some tax of 15% on top + 10% GST tax, bringing the amount closer to
$1,529.39. Not happy.

Then when I get home from work I drive into the driveway to find the back of 'the husband' Ute smashed in. Yes there was an accident, he is fine but it appears it was his fault, no matter how much he protests and its going to cost us our no claim bonus that was due this year after being in the same policy for 3 years, normally we would receive 10% back on what we have paid over the 3 years. That's gone and instead we get to pay $600 in excess. Thanks overtime!

On sadder news, a friend here in OZ has undergone another IVF cycle which resulted in the largest amount of eggs ever collected from her, 24, however as her husband has to undergo a testicular biopsy to retrieve his sperm, which happened the day before, it resulted in no sperm found. He has undergone this procedure a number of times and it now appears that its over for them. She has placed the eggs on ice for now to work out what to do. They have one gorgeous son from their IVF treatments and would have loved to added to the family, I guess now is do you do donor sperm when you already have a full biological child? Its a huge decision, not to be taken lightly.

Good job on the water drinking. I guess the loo will be your new best friend. ;)

Total bummer about the car! At least your husband was okay though. That is all that really matters in the end.

How sad about your friend! That is so heart breaking. I bet her husband feels so horrible. :( I think men are always harder on themselves in the fertility front than women because they think it is a hit to their manhood. :(
