Phase 3
Well, today is the 1st day of phase 3. I am sorry that I didn't write over the weekend. I ended up getting that flu. I am feeling better now, but I am still achy, and the headache isn't completely gone. I ended up with the 248.0 as my LIW. I was so hoping it would go back down to the 245. Oh well, I didn't do so well with food anyway being sick and all. All in all I am pleased with the progress so far. I am thinking about doing a short round of P3 and ending it in 2 weeks instead of 3. I am excited to get going down again. I would like to be under 200 by the time school starts again, and I wouldn't mind being in a size 14-16..or smaller by then either. I don't think that is an unrealistic goal. Funny thing about that is, I haven't been that size or weight in over 20 years. It is my high school's 25 year reunion this year.......I would love to walk in and totally blow them away with the way I look........(I know, vanity :))
So I am noticing areas where there has obviously been significant loss of weight and my skin is getting baggy. How long does it take to correct that and not be baggy? I know that it is supposed to correct itself, but I was wondering. I would love to be able to wear short sleeve shirts....or at least shorter sleeved ones....
Also, what about varicose veins? I am finding that I have some of those that I didn't know about being so heavy, but as the weight is going down, they are showing up. Is this something that I need to worry about? They are really not very attractive. ~sigh~
Not much else that I have noticed yet. I will keep you updated as to what I decide about the shorter round......I do however want to go through the cookbook and plan out what I will eat on what days. I think that will help me not want to cheat. As far as today went, I found myself wanting the simple foods that I have been eating. I didn't want the cheese or the butter or anything that is OK on P3. So for lunch I had roast beef with mustard and a salad. Funny that I didn't want what I could have......
Until next time, take care......
