All in all a good day!

This morning I woke up late and my daughter had to be at school early for auditions for the school play.... not a good day to be late. Consequently, I forgot to weigh myself.... but I weighed myself when I got home in the evening and things didn't seem too out of line... 247. So I'm thinking I will have a loss to report for tomorrow morning. I really tried to stay on strict protocol today. I had coffee for breakfast. Roast beef (lean) and tomatoes for lunch, and my very own "taco salad" Lean seasoned ground beef over lettuce for dinner. Probably too much beef though... so I tried to drink a lot of water and tea today to keep me "liquified."

So for some continuity.... R1 D31 - Starting Weight 264 - Today's weight 247 (but weighed in evening) yesterday's weight 246.5 - Gain .5 Total loss so far 17 lbs.

I hope for a good loss tomorrow. If not, I will do a protein day like Jenn recommended. I want to make my goal.... so I need to at least try my best! Also, I have a very busy day tomorrow, so I will bring my food/water and tea with me and keep on task.

To my commentors:
Jenn - Thanks so much for your encouragement. You are so right. This is not a race. So even if it takes me a year.... well I will be wearing a cute suit when I go to Mexico next winter! YAY! and that will be so cool.... Anyway... I have to remind myself that I am already 17 pounds down in 30 days.... I could have NEVER expected that from some other diet! I try to always keep THAT in perspective.... because I have truly tried them all! LOL
I think I WILL try a protein day tomorrow to get me jump started again. I really do want to see things moving on down again.

Becca - Thanks for the wise advice.... So true! In the end, I will be glad that I stuck it out! It is so nice to have people to talk with that offer the encouragement at all the right times. Next month I won't have as much travel time... (of course I will be on P3 by then LOL.... Ce' la Vi' ....but I am going with the thoughts that I will continue with "some" weight loss, if I stick to the No Starch No sugar rule and don't go hog wild before I start up again with round 2. If everything goes as I have planned (which of course, seldom ever does...LOL)... I will finish up this round on the 20th, go into P3 throughout the rest of March and April, and then start up on R2 the 1st of May (that will get me off everything for the 4th of July, which is a big party time for my clan.) Anyway... I am going to do my best to stick to that schedule.
