So today is my 100th day of VLCD through my three rounds, not one single cheat until las.....just kidding, no way I would cheat at this point.
I definitely think i got my second wind yesterday as I'm feeling great this morning, clear head and tons of energy. Was up .5 yesterday and down 1.2 today. Have had a very challenging yet rewarding week at work which has really helped my mood.
I hear you Cynm on people being "forced" to eat. I have learned to keep my mouth shut in many situations over my 13 months on these three rounds as I am the tough love type and have little to no sympathy for that. The worst part for that person is that they have not yet realized what has gotten them to this point so there is little chance they will change after the diet. For god sakes, I have hundreds of posts to complete strangers about my adventures with injecting myself with the urine of pregnant women. If that isn't an eye opener that I need to make some changes in my lifestyle, I'm not sure what is. I love sharing with you all and reading about your adventures...but this is what it took to help me help myself. After each round I give myself a "never go back weight." I know that I will stick to that, it's not a goal but rather a demand i'm making of myself.
Happy Thursday everyone...make it a great day!

Welcome!!!!
I also use Crystal Deodorant - I bought the roll-on.
I feel the same way. It's all about competing commitments.. Right now my commitment to staying on plan is greater than my commitment to eat food X. Always my choice.
I bought some at WholeFoods and some at CVS. It is with the other vitamin supplements.Just check ingredients - no sugar, no starch..

I use the HCG Tracker sheet to track my food, weight and measurements - HERE
Congratulations !!!! So the patch seems to work as well? I was pretty hesitant about that option as I am skeptical about all things convenientSo you put it on, shower with it on, and then remove it three days later? Do you know if the hCG is Rx or homeopathic? Have you been hungry on it? I ask all this because I have now forgotten to take my drops two nights in a row. Forgetful brain.
Ortho's wrong ~ LOTS of silly questions, but no stupid ones
Well said, Jeremy. You give us all something to think about. This IS a personal journey, despite all of us sharing openly with each other. I'm in this for ME! (And my kids, but selfishly, that's still for me ~ want to be around long enough to point and laugh when THEIR kids give them the headaches they've given me JUST KIDDING!!!)
Congrats on the 100 days and all your losses. (Where else would you congratulate someone on their loss? I mean, usually it's after the death of a loved one. Each time I type it, I shake my head...)

Swab, thanks for all your answers this morning! As always, you are a fount of knowledge and giggles.
Mom is supportive; she's gone through the protocol before and is one of those moms who is sincerely, genuinely happy when her kids are happy (weird, hunh?). My dad and my brother keep their opinions to themselves, because mom and I are still pretty sturdy-sized women and we could hurt them if we wanted to. My daughter has been my biggest fan, but she seems to have less to say now that I'm within 5 pounds of her weight. My fiance is of the opinion that if you just never give any kind of compliment you cannot get in trouble later. (Apparently his ex-wife was one who would respond to "You look nice, dear" with "are you saying I didn't look nice yesterday?").
I think I will go on a search for folks who haven't seen me since December...
