Round 3 – Load Day 2 - 174

Weight: 174

I'm actually not really trying to gain weight during load days this time.  I've been eating P3 with a high fat content this week, so I'm pretty sure my normal fat stores are full!

Even so, the pizza last night was good and I'm looking forward to the steak tonight...my man makes the BEST steak!

My back is hurting today, despite my 20 minutes on the elliptical and stretching, so probably won't quilt, although I do plan to sew.  Gotta work on homework, too.

Looks like my weekend has already flown by!

Round 3 - 1st Load Day - 174.5

Weight: 174.5

I am excited about starting my third, and last, round. I am confident I will be in the high 160's by next Friday, and then it's downhill (yay!) from there.

Here's to load days...

Starting Round 3 on Friday

Weight: 173

I ordered my prescription to start my 3rd round on Friday.

I am scheduled for a short round, but I think I am going to ask my doctor to extend it out longer; if I lose half of the amount of weight as the number of days on the diet, which seems to be typical for me, then I will be just shy of my goal weight.

I’m really looking forward to getting rid of this weight.

GO BRONCOS!!

Weight: 172

Boise State Broncos vs. Louisiana Tech - 28 to 7 after half time...OK, so the game's not over, but I think we will win....!  GO BRONCOS!

I didn't do great avoiding sugar today, but I wasn't terrible....I had the equivalent of 2 candy bars and some home made zucchini bread with chocolate chips....along with my tuna salad, romaine, cherry tomatoes, eggs,Greek yogurt, nuts, cheese, steak, shrimp and cauliflower salad.

I am starting Round 3, P2 on Friday, ordered my hcg prescription today from the pharmacy.  I'm scheduled for a short round, but I'm thinking I need a long 42 day round this time to finish everything up nice and tidy by the end of the year.

I have a great year coming up, I can feel it!

Round 2, Phase 3: Second Week Summary - 170

Weight: 170

My weight has been all over the place this last week, pretty well stabilizing between 172-173.  Greeeeaaat, I spent all this time, money, and effort, and I ended up right back at where I left off on Round 1.

Last night I had t-bone steak and broccoli with cheese for dinner and I am down 2 pounds!  I have avoided doing steak days because:

1. the weight was gained several days ago
2. I think steak days (P3) and apple days (P2) simply get rid of water not real fat
3. I can’t go all day without eating, I’ve tried it.

So, we’ll see if it sticks or not, but it sure was nice to see.  I will continue to eat low carb the rest of this week, but I am going to start my load days for Round 3 on Friday. I'm scheduled for a short round, but if my body seems to be on a roll, I think I will see about getting my prescription extended to go longer, so am keeping an open mind.

Letting go of fear is the hard part, but when we do, we open ourselves up to things greater than we ever imagined.
