Day 22 - I made it!!!

I did it!! I weighed in at 149.8 this morning!! WOOHOO! I am so excited to have made it into the 140's. I do not care if it is 149 or 141. It is the 140's!! No more 150's!! I have made it out of the 160's and now the 150's!! My goal is 135, but I know I will not make it before my 'planned interruption.' Tomorrow will be day 23 and then I am going to take a break for 4 days and then start back on phase 2. I am hoping it will jump start the loss even more. I will continue Phase 2 until I get to 135! After reaching my goal, I am going to start P3. I am going to measure myself tomorrow as well to see if I have any more changes. Stay focused!

Day 21 - 150.4

That was hard to lose! I traveled overnight to visit my mom and I didn't eat like I do when I am at home. They eat a lot of fast food, so I was lucky that one place we stopped at had a nice grilled chicken salad. I took everything out except for the lettuce and chicken. I brought my own fruit, so I added an orange to it. I was glad that I was able to stick to the diet when everyone else was eating everything under the sun! I felt a little weak later in the day. I think it was from not getting enough fluids. I am feeling a lot better today. I wonder if I will ever hit into the 140s before the 23 days are up. I only have 2 more to go and then I start a planned interruption.

Well, until tomorrow......keep focused!

Day 17 - Up .2 pounds

UGH! I am frustrated! I do not know if I will ever hit the 140s. I thought I would get there by now, but I guess it is taking longer than I thought. I guess I should be happy just to have some weight off - like 13 pounds!! WOOHOO!! I have 17 more to go, I think, to get to where I want to be and I am not sure I will get there on this round. I really did not want to do another round, but it looks like I may do another round anyway. I just want to make sure I get to where I want to be. I ordered a recipe book off of Amazon.com called 101 Worry-Free HCG Diet Recipes. I received it yesterday and I just glanced at the book. I am going to look at it thouroughly today to see if there is some different recipes I can choose from besides the same 'ole boring foods I have been eating cooked the same way every day. I sure hope it is a good recipe book!

I am not giving up! See ya again tomorrow with an update! Until then............

Day 16 - 152.2

YEA! I lost 1 pound - - finally!! I thought I would never lose again. I spoke to someone about the food I was eating and they said to cut out the Melba toast. I am eliminating it from my diet as of today! I am not going to jeopardize my weight loss for a little cracker. I am just happy that I am back on the right track...the downhill track. I did not like the rollercoaster ride. It made me sick to my stomach and I wanted off. Today is a new day and I am going to look ahead and not behind. I know tomorrow will be a great day!
