I just couldn't take it anymore. I was so hungry and unhappy yesterday. It's probably immunity setting in, because I've never felt so hungry on this protocol. Not once. I had an extra egg yolk yesterday and that seemed to help, but I was still hungry all day.

I'll log back in a little later and recap the major accomplishments of this round. I'm sorry to end early, but it's really time to stop.

Well, I doubt I'll see the 150's by next Saturday, but you never know. I'm a little disappointed in this round, but I'll be within 20 lbs of my goal weight. 20 lbs is so much easier than 60.

I look a ton better and feel great. I'm also very ready for this to be over. I'll stick it out for any additional weight I can drop, not to mention inches, but I'm ready.

I've been working for a friend during my works shutdown and had several after work obligations that have left me almost no time for updates. Sorry.

Yesterday was .2 lbs down and today was .7 down. Better.

My LIW will be next Saturday, Feb 21st. There is still a chance for me to hit the 150's, but I'm not going to worry about it. Whatever I lose from here on out will be fine.

There will be daily updates from here on out.

Not much weight loss, but I'm still going in the right direction. More than 20 lbs down and less than 8 lbs from a healthy BMI weight.

I've not got much time left, so I'm trying to make the most of it.

Sorry about not posting yesterday. I'm helping out a friend this week while I'm off and expected I'd have time while at his shop to get on line and update. No dice.

Anyway, it was a .3 lb gain yesterday and I'm sure it was the high sodium chicken broth in the chicken curry. I'm throwing away the rest of the servings and starting again. No big deal - water retention just masks the work the body is doing anyway.

I'll catch up with everyone tonight. I'm going back to my friend's shop really early today.

Whatever. I knew this wasn't going to be a good number. I knew it when I went to bed. So, again, whatever.

My losses are really different this round than last round. Last round I lost every day unless I ate something that didn't agree with me (cabbage). This time it appears to be tiny plateaus, a big loss, stir, then repeat. That's OK, but it's very different.

My inches took a big jump today. My waist, hips and thighs are starting to really show the losses. That's great as that is where I carry most of the extra weight.

I hope everyone else had a successful weekend!

Wow! I knew it would be at least a pound due to weighing myself last night and being under my morning weight at bedtime, but I never expected this. I weighed myself three times this morning and did a little happy dance before I got dressed.

Two more weeks - I had two goals when I started this round:

1. Size 8 jeans - right now I'm comfortably in 10's.
2. Weight somewhere in the 150's.

I had been preparing myself mentally for less than what I wanted, but I think both are possible now.

As far as the eggs go, I may or may not do them. Dr. Simeons does talk about using eggs for protein, but it wasn't his first choice. I may just stick it out.

I AM IN THE 160's! I haven't been here since early 2005. I am thrilled.

No more experiments. If it isn't in P&I, I'm not touching it for the next two weeks. That said, I will try eggs this weekend at some point.

Thanks to Beaker and helderheid for all of your encouragement - it really helps.

Oh, well. I'm back to where I was on Thursday and should see a better number tomorrow. No more experiments. I still might try eggs at some point, because Dr. Simeon did talk about using them, but not right this minute.

I need to see some good numbers.

Alright. No more coconut oil on this course. It's not a disaster, but I don't want any more of that.

Busy day, more headaches, going to bed.

I'm doing a little experiment today - I ate 1/4 teaspoon of coconut oil this morning. It helps some people release more on Phase 2. We'll see what the scale says tomorrow.

I'm pleased with the number today as I didn't get to the gym and didn't get in as much water as I wanted due to an eye doctor appt, dilated eyes and a severe headache. Went to bed quite early.

I AM DUMB. I got up today in a bit of a rush and forgot my fruit serving in my packed lunch. I forgot my supplements and, most importantly, I forgot my shot. HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU FORGET YOUR SHOT ON THIS DIET????

Anyway, I wasn't going home until quite late tonight, but will be making special trip to get my 1/2 grapefruit, vitamins and my HCG this afternoon.

On a lighter note, I went to a Superbowl party last night and resisted everything. It wasn't as easy as last round, but it wasn't that hard either. I got lots of compliments on my figure as well.

Oh, and I'm finally in a pair of size 10 jeans that I bought three years ago and never got to wear. I'm very excited.

I'll say it again - anything I lose from here on out is gravy.

I'm so glad TOM is almost over. Last week was a bit of a downer.

I'm having a hard time stomaching the apple cider vinegar I was doing daily at the beginning and will not be doing that everyday now. I will keep going to the gym as much as I can as I am sure that is helping.

My inches didn't change much this week either. However, my overall inches lost since the start of round 1 are almost 20 inches. Can't argue with that.
