I write a Christmas letter thingy for my family every year. I've been doing it for 5+ years and I always start out by going through all of the digital pictures from January through "now". This helps me to remember big events -- and I put some pictures in the letter too.

I haven't had any reason to look at pictures from early this year before now -- and I was shocked.

How on earth did I let myself walk around looking like that for the past 10+ years of ...

Finally a change, -.4#. For the past 3 days, my weight has remained steady. Not much on the scale, but plenty of inches in the clothes. After 3 days of nothing more-or-less, I had an epiphany: hhcg is a mere contribution, not the whole hog, that is me!

Day 23:

I was down 1.2lbs WooHoo. You don’t know how happy I was this morning, well I bet most of you do. The hubby was down also but no surprise there. I guess the cabbage was ok after all. Tomorrow is going to be a busy day and we have to be up early so I’m sure I won’t get much sleep. I guess we’ll see how that affects morning weigh-ins.

Hope everyone had a good day

Hello Friends!
Wow...I can't believe I have been eating this low cal diet for 27 days (minus one )
I have to say, yesterday and today I am BORED with the food. I am going to have to make something different. I have 14 more days of it so something has to give. I feel like I lose better though when I eat simply. Meat and veggies.

I had a good loss today, almost 2 lbs. I am below my T Day weight now. I really hope to lose 10 more pounds by the end of P2.

Wow, so I've been dying to trying Zevia, a soda made from Stevia. I've waited a whole week to get my hands on one.
Finally, today I got to go to the whole foods by my job, and bought a ginger root and a cream soda one. They were out of cola, which was what a really wanted, but I thought I'd give those two a chance.

After three sips from the cream soda, I poured it out and threw the can away. Disgusting!! At least I had the other soda. So, I tried it. Three sips and threw it ...

Very thankful that I am back down to around my LDW.

Am very suprised by how well I have adapted psychologically to this stage of the protocol, and how easily I am coping with eating large amounts on a regular basis throughout the day. In fact, I am actually finding myself experiencing hunger which is spurring me on to maybe even increase my calories beyond the 800-1000 target I set myself for P3Week1 (gradually increasing up to maintenance of 1800 by end of P3).

Right ...

I started loading on turkey day and the day after because TOM was comming up and I literally gained two lbs after eating only drumsticks and some bacon slices on p3d1...That's normally something that would help me lost weight on my first day, but nope, I was up two pounds...The next day I had some more drumsticks and a steak for dinner...up 1.5, something was wrong...the next day was a fage day, down less than a lb...Either it was TOM or stabilization just wasn't gonna happen. Since it was a short ...

Hey friends! I am posting really short and quick for all my fellow sweet tooth dieters.
