6/1 -.4 After Day 29 of VLCD

Yesterday's Weight:  209.0
Current Weight: 208.6
Difference from yesterday: -.4
Difference from Day 1 of VLCD: -22.8

Uff-da.  Rough day for eating.  Memorial Day at my parent's house.  First off I was +.2 this morning after a no cheat day.  Then my mother was affended that I wouldn't try her cucumber dip (which also had mayo and cream cheese in it).  So I had a dollop of it on a Ritz cracker.  Then is was time for lunch and I got out the organic chicken I had brought along to grill.  I took a whiff of it and it had gone bad.   Damn it.  So my sister offered me a Boca Burger which at the time I thought would be better than a regular burger, but when I got home my husband said it is all carbs.  I also had some salad with strawberries and picked out the walnuts and feta cheese.  There was a light dressing on it.  Oh, and I put a slice of avacado on my boca burger with no bun.  THEN, 2 hours later we were roasting marshmallows for smores.  It was those giant marshmallows, not just the regular big ones.  I roasted one for my daughter and made her a smore.  But the smore was HUGE with the big marshmallow in it, so I bit off about 1/2 of it so she could handle the smore (listen to me making excuses).  Then I roasted another and ate it myself.  Then my daughter wanted another smore so I had to eat another 1/2 off of her marshmallow.  When we went back inside I spied the 'Black Jack' taffy candies.  YUM.  I had 4.  Two hours later on the way home I stopped for something for supper for my daughter at McDonalds and bought a hamburger for myself.  Ate it all except the bun.  WHAT A CHEAT DAY!  ug
I'm doing an automatic apple day tomorrow.

After all of this I can't believe I lost!

5/28 -1 After Day 25 of VLCD

Current Weight: 210.8
Difference from yesterday: -1.0
Difference from Day 1 of VLCD: -20.6

I CAN'T believe it!  I weigh myself at night too, just to see what my morning weight may be, and last night I was at 215!  I was bummed when I went to bed, thinking, 'there is no way I'll go down more than a couple of pounds" (from past experience).  But look at that!  Down 4 from the night before.  I was very strict today,
no cheat at all so it's a big incentive to stay on protocol!

Lunch:  crab/white fish, lettuce, strawberries
Dinner:  bison chili

5/27 -.6 After Day 24 of VLCD

Current Weight: 211.8
Difference from yesterday: -0.6
Difference from Day 1 of VLCD: -19.6

Yesterday I pulled out a pair of jeans that I thought were my "big pants" (the ones that I'd been wearing before starting hcg, and are baggy but I tried the next size down and hadn't lost enough yet), pulled them on and went, wait: these are the one's I tried on about a week ago that were too tight.  oh wow, now they're good.  They are still size 18, but just a tighter fit I guess. 
Today I am wearing a shirt I bought about 5 months ago that was too small. Size 14
Now that helps to actually see a little bit of difference in clothes!

Lunch:  crab/white fish, tomatoes, 8 pretzel nuggets, 4 rounds of Mary's Gone Crackers
Dinner: Broccoli, dried starwberries

5/26 -.4 After Day 23 on VLCD

Current Weight: 212.4
Difference from yesterday: -0.4
Difference from Day 1 of VLCD: -19.0

DAMN!  -.4??  I guess I've heard that by the 3rd week the weight loss slows down, but I really thought I'd have a drop of 2 lbs. once TOM was over.  My husband is consistantly losing 1-2 lbs and I know that men lose faster, but a bit discouraging.

Lunch:  bison chili, breadstick, apple
Dinner:  eggs, mushrooms, strawberries
