Maybe it's a Monday thing.

Weight: 178.8 lbs.
Overnight loss: .1 lbs.
VLCD day: 35

There are a variety of things that could be involved in this sudden drop in weight loss. I found out yesterday that asparagus is a diuretic. I've eaten asparagus with dinner the previous four days and switched to spinach again yesterday. I don't think I drank enough water yesterday. I did two walking tours of downtown Austin last night back-to-back. That shouldn't have taxed my muscles that much, but who knows? I've been losing a pound or more for most of a week and losses like that can't be maintained, particularly in the last week.

Eh. If I don't drop another ounce on this phase this has still been a smashing success. There is light at the end of this tunnel and its name is Sunday, November 2ND. The beginning of phase 3.

I didn't know asparagus was a diuretic. Nope. Still not enough to get me to eat it. :o)

November 2nd. I'm happy for you. I am so looking forward to phase 3.
