Quick Update.

I have been working a lot, so I haven't had much time to post. But here's a quick update....

Ok... Well today I was down a little.... but still up from LIW and still fighting with TOM

So here's the stats... R1 - P3 - D8 - LIW 240 - Today's Weight 244 + 4

This morning I had 1 deviled egg made with 1 Teaspoon light mayo and mustard, Lunch was vegetable soup, green beans and roasted vegies with a little olive oil and some spices and a molasses cookie. Dinner, Taco salad with lettuce, taco meat, cheese, salsa. Red wine - The calorie count? Let's see.... according to fit day 1504

I have also exercised 4 days straight... so I am happy about that. Not too hard core, just a 30 minute workout video with light weights and a few squats, sit ups and push ups. My goal is to just get in the habbit of doing something everyday.

To My friends out there:

Jenn... Great to have you back. I know TOM can wreak havoc. So I am ignoring it for now. I am just trying to eat healthy and exercise. Hopefully that will at least get me back to LIW so I can maintain until R2. I have also had a couple of nice comments from my Biz partner, who knows nothing about my hcg program.... she said to me today.... "Liz, you don't look quite so puffy.... whatever you're doing, keep it up, you look great! " So that made me feel good.

Biz.... It's great to have you back too! I am going to buzz right over to your blog to see what you've been up to!

Becca.... my chocolate malted egg partner in crime... LOL I'm glad I'm not the only one that has problems resisting! I will work on being a better student of Dr. S. ...But I gotta admit, THAT is one of my biggest issues! I sometimes have problems with "cheating just a little bit!" But my hopes are that even with my baaaaad habits, I will learn to keep the cheats to a minimum and eventually get there if I just get back on the path when I find myself wandering.

TOM Again- Ughhhhh!

Well TOM is back! God I hate that! I wasn't expecting it until next week, but bright and early Sunday morning.... what a "nice" Easter surprise! I ALWAYS GAIN what feels like a hundred pounds with TOM, so of course.... I am up! Ok... so here are the stats for today....

LIW240 - Today's weight 245 + 5 pounds.... arghhhhhhh! I'm now on P3 D6 (I think) I sometimes lose a day or two when I haven't reprted regularly.

On a good note, I have exercised for two days straight.... not a lot only about 30 minutes.... breaking myself in slowly and then will gradually ramp up to 45 -60 minutes per day. I want to try to keep it up throughout P3 and then when I start R2, I will just do a steady 30 minute workout throughout my next R2 to see if it ups my weight loss some.

I am trying not to worry too much about my 5 lb gain right now.... with TOM and all.... but this whole weight loss thing is really a mind game, and sometimes it can really mess with you! Plus.... I really didn't end my P2 all that well.... with Alex's birthday and Easter.... My first "leagal" day of P3 being Easter, and do you think I could leave the malt ball eggs alone? God... I am so weak! Okay...well that is over so I will stop beating myself up!

Anyway.... Becca... good to hear from you. I AM going to keep the next load to a minimum.... AND I am REALLY going to try to keep within the 2 lbs of LIW throughout this P3 period. I would REALLY like to drop below the LIW too... so ANY suggestions would be truly appreciated from my experienced friends out there!

Biz..... It's great to have you back! Man....were you ever missed! I am going to head right over to your place and see what you have been up to! LOL

Okay everyone.... have a GREAT Evening (you all are probably asleep by now) Take care!
