One day at a time.

Well another rough week. Didn't lose very much this week, but still feeling good. Almost at the 20 lb mark. That will be a big milestone. Just need to stick with it. Really starting to miss food. Would just love a cheeseburger with mayo. Or an order of wings with chicken nachos. I will stick with my drinks and lettuce alternatives. Yummy yummy.

Dr. Appt.

Well went for my weekly check up today. Doctor gave me some food options to the shakes. They are very happy with the weight loss I have had. Blood pressure was great and I am off all the heart meds now. Pants are actually getting loose. Still have a ways to go but feeling very encouraged right now. Haven't lost any more weight in the last few days, but I have lost inches. Starting to see a difference in my face too. Thanks so much for all of your support!!

P.S. Ryan even said that I am looking 'straighter' as he calls it:).

Hard week

Being on vacation is making this week rough. Shakes are still upsetting my stomach. I go to the doctor Thursday. Haven't lost any weight this week, haven't gained any either. Just at a hard point. Gotta keep going and do this. Gonna talk to the doctor to see what the alternatives are. Total of 17 pounds lost, but I am still not the biggest loser.

Saturday

What a day. Having a hard time downing the shakes. Makes my stomach very upset. I have been only doing maybe one a day. Had a 3 ounce piece of grilled chicken today. Just getting frustrated with the Hunger pains and headaches. I have lost 15 lbs. This is good, but I tend to get tired and cranky.

I gotta keep doing this.

Update

So blood work came back. Magnesium levels really low gotta take a magnesium supplement daily. Funny thing is that the pharmacist tells me to take it with food. Um, ya okay. I'll get right on that.

Hopefully this will make the muscle cramps and headaches go away.

Lost another pound:)

Okay

So had weigh in today.  Had to have some blood taken due to the muscle cramps and headaches.  Checking potassium and magnesium to make sure they are all good.  I lost another 5 lbs this week, so I am happy with that. Can't believe some of the weight lose people have each week.  10 - 15 lbs a week.  I guess I am ok with only 5 a week.  Maybe that will be easier to keep off.  More of a steady lose than a nose dive.

So 47 more to go.

Good week

Well thus has been a good week. Worked hard. So far lost 4 more pounds. Gotta keep it up. It gets hard. Still getting the hunger pains. Hate that part and the headaches. Had some muscle cramps too, but still a good week. Can't wait to see how weigh in goes on Monday.

Starting Week 3

Well starting week 3. Had a little slip this weekend, but didn't put on any weight. Didn't lose any either. Just couldn't say no to the adult beverage, way too many carbs and I knocked myself out of ketosis. Now I have to suffer the hunger pains. Thats okay I did it to myself. My choice. Should only take about 3 days. It's all gonna be worth it.

Weighed in today still at a 10 lb loss so that is great! Today's class was interesting. The fire alarms went off and we had to evacuate. Firemen came and everything. They let us back in after about 20 minutes. Not sure what it was all about, but it had to be the day it's cold and rainy.

Off to diet some more! Thank goodness for all of your support. You guys rock!

Week 2 Update

Well I have officially lost a total of 10 lbs. I'm a little excited about that. It's been a tough week. I did break down and eat a turkey sandwich this week. It was on wheat and with mustard. I was just so hungry I had too. And I think that is okay. I still lost weight that day.

Ryan has been so cute through this. They were eating pizza last night and he kept saying he was sorry I couldn't eat it, but was excited I was going to get straight instead of round. It was really cute.

Day 13: 184.8, 49.8 to go!!
