R4VLCD19 - 157

Weight: 157

I have to say, I am quite pleased that I am now firmly in the 150’s!

I have not been hungry this round, and I really attribute that to the amount of fat I was eating in the time between rounds.  Loading for just a couple of days is apparently not enough for my sensitive system!

My goal now is to get to the 140’s, and I will be able to do that by extending this short round to a long round.  Got the OK from my doctor yesterday and I’ll be picking up more hCG early next week.  I like to break up the amount of the product I get so that it remains fresh; you never know if you might forget it on the counter all day or some other disaster!

I asked the doc about being so cold, and we did some energy work on the parasympathetic nervous system yesterday.  I’ve already had my blood pressure come down and was less cold last night, so have “homework” to do on those energy points.

I think this next 10-15 pound drop will be another perception-bending experience.  I’m looking forward to it.

R4VLCD14 - 160

Weight: 160

I am apparently stalled for the 4th day in a row, after I cheated on St. Patty's Day (I've been super cold lately and just wanted more food).

However, my digital scale only does .5 pound increments, and one of the times on the scale (it was all over the place today) said 159.5, rather than 160, so I think tomorrow will show forward progress. Definitely doing a long round, though, because I won't make my goal if I don't, and I don't want to mess with it again!

Other than being cold, I have lots of energy; well, let me put it another way.  I've been really pushing my limits, staying up until 2am last Wednesday evening, then until midnight Thursday night.  I never recover fully when I do that, so I've been having lower energy days in general.  However, it's only when I feel really good that I can even slip into that sort of sustained energy expenditure.  So, I have to watch myself to make sure I don't burn out!
