Thread: Paige's Valentines Loaders

Hello and happy VLCD8, (well, to me anyway)! I'm down 7 for my first week and last night I plunked another .6 down. My only dissapointment this last week was that I lost another inch in my chest...but on the positive side, i lost one in my hips as well. I like to measure every week...keeps me motivated with the small losses!
So last night I took a risk and tried SHIRITAKE Noodles, aka "miracle noodles". Made sure to rinse them REAL WELL and put them in a pan to heat em up with a little stock and garlic. I made a fantastic homemade marinara. Breaded my chicken in a crushed up Melba and baked it, put it all on my noodles and POW!! I had one heck of a meal!! Emerill would be proud...http://i1103.photobucket.com/albums/...1/bc95d763.jpg the "noodles" took me about .2 seconds to get used to...they obviously chew more like a veggie than a pasty ole piece of nasty, fat producing pasta! But they slurp and suck up the same...so my daughter says!! I only ate half the package so it added a whopping 10 calories to my dinner for a grand total of 210 calories!!
So, for those on r1p2, I suggest you try at your own risk as this is rogue. R2'rs...you know your bodies' good luck!

stuck!!! I realize I am at my stuck weight and that it will take a bit to get over it but really. .2 ounces a day is really slow. This is my first round and for my 2nd week I have only lost 2 lbs total. I am way annoyed with that. I was told that it would move faster than this. But I guess I will take my weight loss 2 ounces at a time.

Hey Paige! I have had Shiritake noodles in my fridge forever and I have been scared to try them but after reading your post I think ill give it a go. I think I just have been nervous based on the mixed reviews I have heard. Also, do you crush your melba toast in a food processor?

Hi Niecy!
Yup! Had the other half of my noodles w/ marinara and baked chicken yesterday for lunch, and crockpot green chili chicken last night for dinner, apple, strawberries and 3 chunks of CC throughout the day and dropped a pound this morning! I was up till bout 2 am and got real hungry round 11:30, when I'd normally be asleep, so I ate another small apple.
I saw some smaller losses earlier in the week, had a little hunger and up'd my drops to the same dose I was on in R1P2, (was trying to make my bottle last longer!). Looks like it may have done the trick!
Really good to hear from you!! Hope your losses are going well! Hang tough Lady! We can do it!!!

Oh and I just put my Melba in a zip lock bag in between a dish cloth and give it a few good whacks with my mallet!!

so begining of week 3 and my weightloss seems to be very very slow. only 9.6 lbs and on day 15 however i did do my inches just to see and they are down 11 inches!!! So that is positive. Hopefully this week my weight will move better I found out that I was doing too few drops that may be cause of my slow weight loss.

so day 16 and a 2 ounce gain. Stuck at my stuck weight positive thoughts all day and things will look better tomorrow! How is everyone else doing??

Down .4 today. The margarita was really good on Sunday....but set me back .8. Oh well!! Hope to be down to my goal weight by the 8th as that's my last drops day, (if I have enough drops). Doing a short round cuz I've got the vacation with the family over spring break and want to be able to eat "for real" and get my monies worth!! Lol! Just gonna stick to protocol real hard the next week!!!
I don't know where all the others are who we're supposed to be doing this with us Alicia!! I'm cruising for support on a few other threads to now...i see all the VIEWS...wish the lurkers would JUMP IN!!!

I am working on mine still was excited with the .6 loss this moring. Today I am doing a steak day to hope jumpstart it. I have no clue where the others are on this idea either. Are they still doing the drops?? I have posted a couple things out there and looked for help. so gratefull for all your help. I know I will be doing another round of hcg around the 15th of next month. It may be slow going but it's goin and that's what I really need!
