VLCD 49 - 148

I finally got past the lowest weight!

It would have been much sooner if I hadn’t cheated!

I definitely feel less fat on the front of my body, although it’s still there and I’d love to have the look of those people on the weight loss ads that have lost 60 pounds and look good in a bikini!

I don’t think I’ll be one of those people…any time soon, anyway!  That’s unrealistic without working out I think!

Even so, I feel great.  I got my labs back and the doc recommended lowering my Armour from 3 grains (180mg) to 2 grains (120mg), and I started that yesterday.  I want to be on it for a week with the hCG before I go off the diet and try to maintain my weight with the lower dose.

So, I’m looking at another week and hoping I can lose 3-4 more pounds so I can maintain my weight in the mid 140’s.  That would be AWESOME!

VLCD 48 – 148.5

Was up 1 pound yesterday, and not exactly sure why, but today I'm DOWN 2.5...to match my lowest of 148.5 !!  And this is late in a long round!!  Happy!

VLCD 46 - 149

I’m glad to be back in the 140’s!

I’ve decided that I’m going to end this round by Memorial Day, so that leaves 13 more days to lose 7 pounds.

I talked to a friend of mine who is also going through this protocol and she wants to stop by that time, too.  So, we’re going to be accountable to each other for this time and have committed to make it happen.

Here’s to our success!

VLCD 45 - 150

Glad to be back down a pound after cheating.  It was a pretty easy day yesterday, too…part of that might be the new soup I made up.  It was very satisfying and I didn’t even think about food the rest of the morning!

This cereal incident on Sunday was my 3rd cheat on this very long round.  I'd be done by now if I hadn't cheated, and I'm beginning to wonder if this last 5-7 pounds is really going to come off.  I'm having to come to terms that my lower belly will always stick out, no matter what.  Blech!
