R2 :: P2 :: DAY22:: INJ 22 : 146.6 (-13.8)

(-1.0) TOM showed up early...today...and I am cramping something terrible. I was surprised that I hadn't lost more in 3 days since I posted last, but now I know why. I'll weigh myself later...it's very early and see if there is any difference.

Anyway, I'm going to take my last injection on Tuesday and we will be done for this round...I don't intend to do another one, so I hope everything will go great from here on out...and I will be able to maintain my new weight.

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 19 :: INJ 19 : 147.6 (-12.8)

(-0.8) I can't believe it is still going down....I mean I know I still have plenty of fat to spare, but I haven't been this weight in decades...it's kinda freaky! I like it though...no complaining here...my clothes fit so much better!

6 More Injections and 8 More Days to P3 - I can't wait!

Total Overall Weight Loss 30 lbs.!!!

R2: P2: DAY 18 : INJ 18 : 148.4 (-12.0)

NO LOSS...UGH! SEE YA TOMORROW.

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 17 :: INJ 17 : 148.4 (-12.0)

(-1.4) Now that's more like it...I guess I got over the stall and I'm moving right along towards my goal. 3.4lbs to go to hit goals. BooYa!

Let's see, yesterday I had a small salad, but where I went for the salad they had not grilled chicken (the nerve!), but ham...blah...so I substituted eggs for my protein. No bread stick, no fruit...then last night I made a chicken breast salad, breadstick and some baked apples. I was worried about the eggs...I know the protocol allows subing that, but I was just not sure...turned out good.

I'm stopping at 25 injections and will be on P3 Friday, February 6th...just in time for my Bleu Cheese Bunless Burger from Red Robin and drinks and chicken wings on Friday night with work friends.

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 16 :: INJ 16 : 149.8 (-10.6)

(-0.8) Finally...barely made it, but I did make it all the same.

I didn't have any breadsticks yesterday and I skipped one fruit..by accident...I fell asleep and forgot about it. I hope that I don't have to continue skipping parts of my VLCD just to see a loss...that will be very frustrating.

Can I get 4.8 more pounds in the next 2 weeks? I should think so, but after this week...I'm just not sure.

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 15 :: INJ 15 : 150.6 (-9.8)

(-0.2) This is ridiculous....maybe I need to make today an apple day...as much as I don't want to...it looks like it's going to be a necessity.

Coffee with Stevia most of the morning
2pm - Talapia and Asparagus - no breadsticks (it's still better than apples)
4pm - Strawberries
8pm - Chicken, Romaine Lettuce, Tomato


I took my measurements this morning and I have lost OVERALL 13.75 inches this round...so although my weight doesn't appear to be moving...I am getting smaller. I believe I lost 21.5 inches in the first round...so the total inches overall is 35.25.

Biggest loss in the abdomen area, followed by the hips and then the chest...all areas that really need it. Still waiting for the arms to get smaller...but they aren't.

UPDATE: I'm not doing an apple day...I just can't...I need food...LOL But I am going to skip the breadsticks today and not eat beef. I'll drink green tea and water and take a diuretic. If that doesn't do it...come hell or high water, I WILL do an apple day tomorrow. MAYBE...LOL I have issues with commitment.

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 14 :: INJ 14 : 150.8 (-9.6)

I'm telling ya, my body is refusing to go to 149. No loss.

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 13 :: INJ 13 : 150.8 (-9.6)

(-1.4) That's better

8am Coffee with Stevia
11am Breadstick (I seriously felt like I was starving..which is weird)
1:00pm 100 grams grilled chicken, romaine lettuce and tomatoes
Lots of water and I'll have an apple later thisafternoon.
6pm Breadstick
7pm Talapia, tomato
8pm Strawberry Smoothie with Stevia

I'm thinking about stopping 5 days early...I have a couple of company events coming up Feb 6th and 7th and I'd like to enjoy some of it. I dunno....will 5 days be that big of a difference? I'm getting lazy with this diet...I know...I just feel good right where I'm at and know I'm going to lose even more over the next 12 days...and I think I'll be happy with whatever that number is.

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 12 :: INJ 12 : 152.2 (-8.2)

(+0.4) My body is apparently resisting the 140's. Ugh! Here I was hoping I would be down a pound today and instead I increase. Not sure what that is all about, but this diet works in mysterious ways, so I'm just going to go pout for a bit and then get along with my day.

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 11 :: INJ 11 : 151.8 (-8.6)

(-0.6) I didn't post yesterday, but you didn't miss much...I lost nothing. Today was a little better. I am so close to the 140's...ugh...I know I'm going to hit it by the weekend.

I'm bored with posting my menu...its just a combination of the same things switched around...I don't cheat...ever so I don't have any good juicy stories to tell. I am a sugar free gum junkie and have chewed a minimum of 5 pieces a day in both rounds...didn't effect my loss at all and it also works great on hunger if you start getting the urge to eat something. Also, I have started baking apples with cinnamon and stevia (yum) and making smoothies with strawberries, ice and stevia. That breaks up the boredom a little.

I'm not hungry, but I am just not as excited this time as last time...maybe I'm just in a funk from this crappy cold weather. I know what would make me feel better....a tummy tuck! My god, the thinner I get the more visable my stretch marks are and can I say..eeewww!

I need to get on one of those extreme makeover shows...get surgery, a new hair do..teeth whitening and a new wardrobe. That would be sweeeeet!

Okay, back to reality..I'm going to bed...cross your fingers...I want to lose atleast 1 lb tomorrow.

Peace out!

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 9 :: INJ 9: 152.4 (-8.0)

(-0.8) This is awesome...I'm just a few 10th of a pound away from an overall loss of 25lbs. I am only 7.4lbs away from my goal for this round...it is quite possible, since I'm only 9 days into it, that I will go below my goal by several pounds. I'm just going to let it work its magic...the way I figure it, I'm only losing BAD fat, so as long as it keeps coming off...I'm not going to worry about being too thin. LOL Too thin...I've never had to worry about that!

7am Coffee with Stevia
11am Breadstick
2pm Talapia, Asparagus
6pm Strawberry/Lemonade Seltzer Drink
6:30pm 100 grams Chicken, Cabbage Creation from Susan
7pm Baked Apples with Cinnamon - Yummy
7:30pm Strawberry/Lemonade Seltzer Drink (counts as 1/2 fruit)


I have a touch of a headache..well..no..I definately have a headache...thought eating would help, but it didn't...I think this happened in Round 1 and I just too ibuprofen and I was fine...so I'm waiting for that to kick in.

I'm thinking I'm going to see the 140's by next weekend which is really exciting.

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 8 :: INJ 8: 153.2 (-7.2)

(-1.0)

9am Coffee with Stevia
11am Breadstick
1:30pm Apple
2:30pm 100 grams baked chicken and Tomatoes
6:30pm 100 grams baked chicken, lettuce and tomatoes, breadstick
9pm Sugar Free Jello (wanted to see if this would effect myloss...apparently not)

Being home during this diet is difficult...I get bored and then I want to eat. I need to get outside and do something.

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 7 :: INJ 7: 154.2 (-6.2)

(-1.4)

Sometimes I get confused myself...trying to calculate weight loss based on start weight and then load weight. So I just put this information here for me. The good news is that overall I've lost 22.8 lbs of pure fat since Halloween 2008 and boy howdy...did I need it!

Round 2 Beginning Weight 160.4 (Down 6.2)
Round 2 Load Weight 162.2 (Down 8.0)
Round 1 Beginning Weight 171 (Down 16.8)
Round 1 Load Weight 177 (Down 22.8)

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 6 :: INJ 6: 155.6 (-4.8)

(-0.8) Now we are going to slow down a little bit...that's okay...you know how long it's been since I saw 155? About 4 years.

8am Coffee with Stevia
11am Breadstick
1pm 100grams hamburger with mustard 1/2 tomato
5:30pm Breadstick
7pm 100 grams grilled chicken, tomato
10pm Strawberry Smoothie with Strawberries, Ice & Stevia

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 5 :: INJ 5: 156.4 (-4.0)

(-2.2) Another good day...I'm sure I won't continue losing this much daily, but it really boosts your spirits at the beginning of a round to have such a significant loss.

8am Coffee with Stevia
10am 1/2 breadstick
12:30p 100gram Hamburger, Onions, Mustard, Spinach Leaves, 1/2 breadstick

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 4 :: INJ 4: 158.6 (-1.8)

(-3.0) Wow...I didn't believe it either. I'll take it though...I wonder if I will lose more this second round than I did the first...that would be sweet, plus this time, I didn't have much load weight to get rid of so already seeing a real lose is promising. My goal is 145, but if I hit 140, I'll be happy with that too!

8am Coffee with Stevia
10am Breadstick
12:45pm 100grams Hamburger with Mustard, spinach leaves, Apple Cider Vinegar/Stevia Dressing
6pm breadstick
7:30pm Talapia, Asparagus (ate late cuz I was babysitting Laiken)
10pm Strawberries (just a handful-wish we could eat more...yum!)

R2 :: P2 :: DAY 3 :: INJ 3: 161.6 (+1.2)

(-0.8) Not sure how that happened because I ate like a horse...but Stars came this morning and I'm at the end of TOM's visit...so I guess that explains the loss during load day. That's my story and I'm stickin to it.

8am Coffee with Stevia
12pm 100 grams Grilled Chicken, Lots of Lettuce, Apple Cider Vinegar/Stevia Dressing
6pm 100 grams Hamburger with Mustard, Onion, Breadstick
9pm 6 strawberries

Sam's Club has 2 lbs of Fresh Strawberries for $5.88...I thought that was a good deal....especially since I can't find any at the normal grocery store. I"m gonna tear in to those babies later.

R2 :: P2 :: LOAD DAY 2 :: 162.4 (+2.0)

Up 2 lbs overnight...gee I wonder why...thanks Sus & Dee...for helping me stuff my face.

R2 :: P2 :: LOAD DAY 1 :: 160.4

Here we GROW again. LOL...I wonder if I'll gain 6 lbs again this time.

I got my goods and I finally took my injection at 12:30pm...a tad late..but I will be taking it around 7am as usual starting tomorrow...while I feed my face with crap food. I'm rockin' a bag of green M&M's right now...I think I"m gonna barf! LOL But I'm so horn....nevermind.

I got bored with not losing any weight for the last 6 weeks so I'm ready to go...let the fat fall off where it may! Whoo Hoo!!

R1 :: P4 :: 160.4

Tom's back. I am thinking of starting Round 2 next week...I was hoping to start it with Lindsey since she is wanting to do it too, but I just realized I don't have enough pins and haven't received the hcg from Diana yet...so we will see.

I am officially 4 lbs over my last injection weight, but I'm tired of this weight and I'm getting really lazy with my foods, so I am ready to get started again...shooting for 140 next round.
