Jami: 141.5
Not the best weekend possible...note to self, do not try to finish the last two days of the vlcd over the weekend! I did great during the day, it was just going out that did me in. Saturday night was at a Thai place where I ate three pieces of sushi and a crispy green bean. Thankfully I was able to resist the french fries at 11pm! Sunday evening was a pot luck at the Capital Yatch Club. 99% of the food I couldn't eat. I was doing really well too, ate fresh tomato salsa (no chips), a hot dog, a chicken wing minus the skin and grilled, and hot tea. Then two crab cakes and I licked the frosting off my finger from Josie's cupcake. So, it definitely could have been worse and I get to do a steak day on my first day of Phase 3. Lol, I know we've all had to do it, so I am not that ashamed.
Also, I had an excellent weekend shopping trip. Lately I have been looking like I am trying to wear my mom's clothes, they are that much too big. So I broke down and bought jeans and slacks at Express. The GREAT news: they were size 4's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have NEVER been a size 4 that I can recall! and they aren't painted on either! The slacks are modest enough for work and the jeans are long enough for me! Woot woot! I think this big victory gave me the confidence to slack, but that cannot continue, so I am strict again, for the entire Phase 3. It's only three weeks and the restrictions are reasonable and doable. No starches, no chemicals, no fast food, no sugar. Can't wait to make pesto and cauli-fredo with miracle noodles (starch free!). Yum yum yum yum...
Update on Lauren. Her scale is possessed. She was having funny readings all last week, but the straw that broke it's back was when it displayed 314!!! Up 102?!?!? Yep, broken. So Lauren wasn't able to capture actual results for over a week. Also, she going in for back surgery this morning. Noon, keep her in your thoughts and prayers. It is very likely she will have the exact results she is hoping for too! It's a great time for her to be on Phase 3 so her body can have all the right nutrients to heal properly and quickly. She has vowed to do another round of Phase 2 before she leaves for Peru and I commend her. Go Lauren!!!
Work is back to normal, everyone pretending not to hate each other and work getting out the door. I am reading a Corporate leadership book that I borrowed from the CEO, but it is blatantly pointing out some things I will do differently when I run my company. Basically, it's always about the people. Get the right people in the company doing the right job and things will blossom from there.
Aw, so no more count down. :( Final stats for this round are:
Total weight lost from the top of the gorge to the last day of injections: 24.9, 25 pounds!! In 35 days. Stunning, if I do say so myself. :)
Measurements from January 2010 (I know, last year, but that is what I have).
Hips: 44.75", Waist: 29.5", Bust: 36.75", Thighs: 26"
Current measurements:
Hips: 38.5" - down 6.25!
Waist: 25.5" - down 4.0!
Bust: 36.75" - no loss because they are fake :)
Thighs: 22.5" - down 3.5!
An even better comparison, above are the first pictures I posted last year, in the pink swim suit. And on the left a picture I took this morning. I am done, I am happy, this rocks!
Stupid thing won't let me move the pictures...Arg.
