VLCD #29

Yesterday, I released 1.2 lbs for a total of 23.6 gone forever!  Today, I didn't release any lbs...

Not sure why--if it was something I did or not.  I ate low calories and possibly, didn't have enough water.  We went to a Flea Market yesterday and I was really good with my food choices.  Unfortunately, I walked a LOT and while I felt perfectly fine (and not even out of breath), I think I might have gotten too much exercise.  That's the only thing I can really think of because I really think I drank enough water...

Tomorrow will tell.  I didn't walk too much today.:)

Today, I wore a "pencil skirt"!  It is gray wool and I really thought it looked nice.:)  My girls dressed me up for church, so I looked as good as I could have!  I also wore a thin, off-white cardigan buttoned up (which I couldn't have done previously as it would not have stayed closed against my body.  I did wear a sleeveless top underneath it just in case.:)

Also, my rings are fitting so much better now!  My favorite thumb ring, however, only fits now on my index finger.:(  That makes me sad...it's really perfect as a thumb ring.  It's only "OK" as a finger ring...

I have a charley horse, today, too.  In my left calf.  I don't know if it's from my heels, or from the walking yesterday.  Either way, I think I'll take a nice, warm soak tonight...

Well, life is sort of boring, lately.  The only thing I'm doing is trying to stay focused so I don't "fall off the wagon".  I took communion today, which was kind of like falling off... However, I think it was worth it.:)

I'm praying that I can lose at least 2 more lbs before the morning of the 12th, which will be my LDW (Last dosage weight).  That way, since my current weight (as of yesterday and today morning) is 190, I will stabilize at 190 or lower.  I really just want to get out of the 190s and stay out...I don't mind weighing this much through the holidays if I can keep it stabilized.  I know that January is coming and I intend to stay on the VLCD at that time, until I've lost the maximum 34 lbs.  That is my HOPE (I feel with hCG you can't set "goals" because it just does it's "thing") and my plan (as far at that goes...)

I'm looking forward to my husband and some of my daughters doing it with me in January!  That will make it so much easier--I won't have to cook separately.  I guess Bella will be on her own...but she is gone enough--she can eat at school and work.  I am only willing that my girls and husband do 23 days, though.  NONE of them need to lose more than 20 lbs, seriously.  I'm going to have to figure out how many ius of hCG to buy for all of us.  The girls want it for Christmas presents!  I'm afraid that might sound worse than it is.  I would hate for it to get around that I bought DIET stuff for my GIRLS for CHRISTMAS!:(
