First, I have to tell all those wonderful people out there how incredibly warm it makes me feel to hear all of your comments. It’s so nice to know that by my posting updates, it’s helping some out there. I do it for accountability, but it gives me warm fuzzies to hear from you folks – so don’t stop! ROFL

Second, I have to tell you how happy I am to have my scale back! WOO HOO!!! It’s about stinking time! Did you SEE that number? UNDER 205! Ok…now, I am back to where I was back in April of 2004 when I got home from spending some time helping family in California. That is where my downward spiral started, when I tasted a macadamia nut white chocolate chip cookie – it was all down hill from there. WOW – WOW – WOW – I just can’t say it enough. WOW – this HCG thing is too cool!

Third, my food yesterday was so so – I had chicken soup for lunch, and a steak lettuce salad with strawberry dressing – oh well, today I will try to be a bit more creative.

Fourth, no long post for today – time is flying away from me.

*Still a situation with a scale. The readout today said no loss from yesterday. So whatever, I can’t wait to get my own scale back! WOO HOO!!!

PICTURE DAY!!!!

I can’t believe I am posting these for the world to see. I didn’t have a problem with posting them at the YahooGroup because it seems I was a bit hidden there, but now here I am, posting these pics for everyone!

These are clickable – which means they are small here yes, but you can click on them and see larger ones:

MEASUREMENT DAY!!!

Neck 16th = 14″ / 23rd = 13.75″ (Loss of .25″)
Bicep 16th = 13.75″ / 23rd = 13.25 (Loss of .50″)
Forearm 16th = 10.25″ / 23rd = 10.25″ (No Loss)
Chest 16th = 43.25″ / 23rd = 42″ (Loss of 1.25″)
Waist 16th = 39.50″ / 23rd = 37.75″ (Loss of 1.75″)
Hips 16th = 48.25″ / 23rd = 49″ (Gain of .75″)
Thigh 16th = 27.25″ / 23rd = 26.50″ (Loss of .75″)
Calf 16th = 17″ / 23rd = 16.50″ (Loss of .50″)

Total Loss is 4.25″!!!!

Well, what do you think of that??? That is an incredible start if you ask me!

Ok, let’s talk about my day yesterday, believe it or not I find things to talk about each and every day! LOL

It all started yesterday morning…well don’t all days start that way? Anyhoo, I got up and I had this incredibly LONG pee. I mean the kind of pee that NEVER ends. I know you people out there know what I am talking about. I kept thinking I could get up, and nope, it was still going. Ok…so whatever. I finally finished and went about my normal morning activities.

About an hour later, I had to pee again. Now mind you, I haven’t drank any water between the two pees, so I really have no idea where all of this is coming from. I think nothing more about it until the NEXT time I have to go in! Now it’s light outside and I can see things in the mirror I couldn’t see before – and mind you, it’s a BIG mirror – so I am looking at my thighs/butt and no kidding, they were relatively smooth the day before (Friday), whereas this day (Saturday) they had become LARGE CURD COTTAGE CHEESE CITY. I was like, where the heck did THAT come from??? OMG! VERY WEIRDNESS!!!

So I am thinking to myself, wow, that is just weird…this is probably the process where I am expelling all this abnormal fat and my cells are still there but not broken down and they are empty and that is what is giving this cottage cheese effect??? Who knows? But that is my story and I am sticking to it. Today? The large cottage cheese thing is not so bad. So I am wondering if they have now filled up with water and that will help them break down? Look at me acting like I know what I am talking about! HA!!!

I do want to add here also, that Friday, I experienced hunger. Real hunger that I hadn’t felt for like almost 3 months, it was a very strange feeling. Not uncomfortable, uncontrollable hunger, but hunger. The kind of hunger that water wasn’t helping. When I ate tho, I was satiated. Could be all part of the process.

Ok…so what was on my plate yesterday? I had Beef Curry Stew for lunch, mmmmmm, and my husband grilled steaks last night so I had that and cucumbers with lemon, garlic, braggs and cilantro. Pretty much a uneventful day. I did something I don’t normally do in that I had two beefs yesterday. Bad, bad, girl.

My son comes back into town today. He called last night all worried about the restaurant his “party” had picked to eat at – a Japanese Steakhouse! I told him what he could eat and what he couldn’t. He will call me this morning and let me know his weight. I had dreams about the poor boy last night! OMG – I dreamed that he had to do a steak day on his very first Phase 3 day! ROFL

Ok…enough with this novel. Thanks for listening/reading, you all are the best!

Stay tuned for tomorrows weigh in! It should be a doosy!

*Ok – Since I am being MORE than candid in my reports (updates), I have to state that I really don’t know how much I weigh today. My son, who had his last injection on Thursday had to head out of town so I let him take my GOOD scale. He has far more important weigh ins for today and tomorrow than I do. I have my OLD scale that I am using. I made sure yesterday that I placed my OLD scale in a spot on the floor that it wouldn’t move so I could be reasonably sure it would weigh me semi correctly. I weighed myself yesterday on both scales and marked down both weights. I know the difference between the two – so anyhoo, just for kicks I weighed myself on my OLD scale and it says I lost two pounds. Oh well … I just know that isn’t true, so I am giving myself a .6 loss and will wait until I know for sure on Monday morning.

So that out of the way, I didn’t do my Thai Salad yesterday, but instead I mixed up some Taco Seasoning from Renee’s site and I had Beef Fajitas for lunch and Shrimp Fajitas for dinner! Don’t worry folks, I gave Miss Renee my recipe for the fajitas which I am sure she will post. You will need to go over to HCG RECIPES and join her blog to get updates on her recipes! I went there this morning and she posted my recipe for Creole Catfish! How utterly cool is that! We are working together on some of my recipes so stay tuned!

My good friend JPS had passed down a pair of brown slacks to me. Remember my brown pants story yesterday? Well these are a completely different pair. I slipped them on yesterday and during the day, I kept having to pull them up. I was like, what is WITH these pants. It didn’t even register that they might have been TOO BIG for me! What is funny is that it took tripping on the bottom of the legs about 5 times yesterday before I finally said, this is NUTS! I can’t fit in these things! Seriously, there was NO thought in my head that they were too big. My mind wouldn’t let me comprehend that they were too big!

Now let me explain something here. JPS is about 30 pounds lighter than me. She wore these pants on the last round until they literally FELL OFF HER. Every time she would come to my house with these pants on I would laugh and tell her that they were TOO BIG for her butt and that it was TIME to give them to me. She never wanted to part with them. NEVER. Finally she had to. Now, I waited TOO long to wear them! OMG! So, I will wash them and give them back to her proudly! HA!

You know, I thought about setting up a interim swap thing for people losing and needing clothes…but by the time you go off and send them they probably wont fit in them anymore! OMG!

Miss Lilly is supposed to be sending me some stuff this week. Some large shirts. I said, don’t be surprised if I have to send them back! ROFL

Ok, I know I keep telling you to be prepared for something brewing behind the scenes, well, we are ALMOST ready for release … it will be all goose pimply I promise!

TOMORROW IS PICTURE/MEASUREMENT DAY!
