Lovely Losers 2020 - Absolutely Active in AUGUST!!

**Leez** · August 6th, 2020, 12:05 PM

I like this USApure brand because I only need one capsule at 450mg. https://amazon.com/200caps-Non-GMO-D...dp/B07HPB83RN/ But its just an enzyme. Most any brand will work. Swanson might be cheaper as the dose is smaller. A smaller amount might work for you, so its worth experimenting.

I use collagen as a protein source. I don't always want meat, so I'll sometimes just put collagen in my coffee/tea or make an almond milk pannecotta with gelatin and collagen and have as a dessert or with breakfast. I buy whatever grassfed collagen is the best price at the time. No particular brand loyalty.

Nice losses Charlie. Tends to slow a bit after first week yet you are doing great thus far! Awesome you feel thinner. Such a nice feeling to fit in clothes and just overall feel better!

I’m P3 - almost two weeks in and about 2-3 above LDW. Doing a bullet proof coffee every morning and healthy fats like almonds, coconut oil, butter, avocado and mozzarella. I think i need to rein back on almonds. If i have more than say 10, i feel a little bloated. Just gonna cut for now.

Feeling pretty good. Started my job as staff at outpatient drug/alcohol rehab. I freaking love it. I get to teach, help others with their goals, do cool meditations and guided imagery techniques. Yesterday we had a client and staff bbq, we were safe as far as covid is related, but boy! I’m tired! Taking the day listening to records and doing a few things around the house before teaching tonight.

I figure I’ll go another week AT LEAST before p2. My drops are in the fridge and they will be fine while i stabilize in p3. For now, it’s good and I’m getting healthier and stronger each day.

Love you all! Excited and honored to be on this journey with you!

P.S. Clients and staff that hadn’t seen me since i graduated rehab in April were blown away by my improved health and weight loss. We had that bbq for staff and clients yesterday at the main facility about an hour away from here. It felt so good to hear positive praise and spend time with my awesome rehab family!

P.P.S. Here is a bit of the music I’m listening to today! Love love love music. And love y’all! Thanks for all you do to help me, inspire me, all the good shtuff.

@Natalie Congrats on many areas of success in your journey. Sounds like you are doing well on P3 In 2011 when i needed two rounds i waited 6 weeks before doing another round. Three weeks p3and three weeks P4 thoughmi didnt do much different on P4 but a bit of starch here and there. I did injections so maybe that is why they told me 6 weeks between rounds I always dropped a little when i went to P4 I am careful not to eat nuts each day as they seems to make it harder for me to stabilize .

If it’s possible to binge on filet mignon then that’s what I did

P4 check in. 138.6. 5.6 below liw. Hoping to creep down to 137s by Sept Not doing anything special

Sitting at 2.2 above LDW. Feeling light still. I’m not feeling to well today. Don’t think I’m getting enough sleep. New job keeps me busy till about 10-11 and don’t get to bed about midnight and still wake up at 6 AM. Need just another hour of restful sleep I think. I’ll get caught up this weekend.

Happy Friday everyone! Wonderful work on maintaining and losing!

I am a mess when I miss out on sleep. I am the same right now. Whatever I did worked because I was 169.8 today!! I swear I lose a ton when I eat steak. I am Elated to be in the 160s.

Woke up to a fall from a coworker who has taken me under her wing (she’s 33 years sober) and she said she had a plan. Basically she is helping me keep a job within the company and I tell you (Natalie will get this) that god provides. My higher power is actually my late mother but I feel her right here with me, guiding me, keeping me strong and opening doors.

I ordered another batch. Going to do 43 days and just bite the bullet!

Happy Friday!! Hope everyone has an awesome weekend

Great job, Natalie. I continue to be impressed with your round!

Powered - great job hitting the 60's. I love new decades. So satisfying to see that new number. Looks like you will hit your goal for this round!

AFM - down 1.6 (6.6 total). Now to get through the weekend. Good luck everyone!

Weekends are easy for me on P2. Since I always have so much to do around the house, I don't have time to be in the kitchen or near food. I've worked from home for almost 10 years now, so the weekend has always been the time for me to do things I don't have time for during the week, such as laundry, errands, cleaning, catching up on personal calls, etc.
