HALFWAY THERE!!!!

Oh, yeah! I've now lost 25lbs!!! Yahooo! Last week's plateau breaker was almost a spirit breaker!!! I couldn't eat grapefruit...it made me cry it was soooo gross! Luckily I was allowed to have either cantaloupe or an orange. Funny thing, though, the last two days were Fresh Start days; set up exactly like the first three days of my program. Looking back I feel like I was always eating those first three days. The last two Fresh Start days I think I ate the least in one day I had ever eaten on this whole program. Now, it's only funny if keep in mind that I was allowed unlimited servings of meat and vegetables. Unlimited, yet I didn't want to eat. I'm now wondering if that's normal...

I don't want to eat, ever. I'm still trying to finish my snack from an hour ago (Strawberry smoothie with pureed blackberries. It's delicious, I just don't have the desire to drink it, nor eat anything else. I'll be talking with a counselor today about that; the main reason I've not gone in yet today...can't concentrate with the toddlers distracting me!! Haha! At least they give me the exercise I need!

Ah, the ever talked about Plateau...

The good news is I didn't really plateau, I lost 1 lb! But on the other hand, I only lost 1 lb...suck! So this week is BioGenic Days (5 days) and Fresh Start (2 days). It's good that I get to mix up the routine a bit, and I'm really excited for the Fresh Start! Biogenic days calls for 1.5 grapefruits a day. Having not tried grapefruit in a very long time I thought maybe my tastebuds had changed enough. Heck, I eat bluberries now where three month ago I thought they were nasty! But alas, twas not so...grapefruit #1 made me want to vomit and I was close to tears. Grapefruit #2 I had blended with a little water to make a drink...still nasty. Luckily my counselor told me I could substitute cantaloupe!!! Halle-frickin-lujah! I'm back on track and ready! Sad news is that weight loss during BioGenic days is unlikely. Gotta prepare mentally!

Danger!

I went to a wedding last Saturday, and had already placed my meal order before starting my slimgenics journey. Of course, I ordered the steak! But luckily my hubby had ordered the salmon, so we plit eachother's meals. It was a long day filled to the brim with events, so I ended up missing two vegetables and I'm I went way over my fat serving!

But, alas...I still lost 1/2 lb between Saturday morning and Monday morning. Phew! That was a close one!

New milestone...

WOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!! I've lost over 20lbs in only 6 weeks! I'm tellin' ya, this is an amazing program!

The elusive 3 lbs...

Lsat week I only lost 2 3/4 lbs....soooo close! I was thinking I might be closer to 4...hoping for 5. But alas, I did not. I don't really understand. I follow my plan exactly, with the exception of maybe being short by 10oz water a day or two. And I don't always remember to take my supplements, but that shouldn't matter, right?

I guess the good news in all this is that the only plateaus I have had only lasted at most two days. I was so worried about the last one that I went in for a 4th weigh in. And much to the relief of my mind, I had lost a whole pound. :)

I'm still holding my breathe to see if I can hit at least 3lbs this week. I better be able to!!

Plateau...what plateau??!

Last Monday when I went in I had not lost, at all. It was the same as it was on Friday. I wasn't too concerned, but just to be sure, the next day I drank 20 oz extra water. Sure enough, today I was down 2 1/4 lbs!! I reached my 15 lbs milestone!!! Wooohooooooo!!! Yay me! (hehe)

Still losing...

I was a little concerned that I've lost so little the last few weeks, but my counselor reassured me. She said that most people will plateau at 4weeks, but I should take comfort in the fact that I'm still losing. So, I guess, yay me! ;)
