Holy Smokes

VLCD Days 9 and 10

Weight Thursday 7.17.08 227.4 (loss of 2.2 lbs)
Weight Friday 7.18.08 227.4 (no loss, and I'm OK WITH THAT!!)
Total weight loss this round: 17.2lbs

It is really insane, REALLY insane, how quickly I've been losing this round! And even more unbelievable that I am not feeling draining fatigue at all. I was hardly even hungry today--I had to force myself to eat my lunch at around 3pm. I completely forgot to eat dinner (not recommended!) and sang the show tonight with plenty of gas in the tank. I did have my second protein serving when I got home tonight, I was definitely hungry by then!

I'm quite happy not to have lost anything between yesterday and today. Body, you need a rest! I wish, and this sounds totally crazy I'm sure to everyone out there who's thinking about doing this diet, but I wish I would slow down and lose a little less each day. Somehow, these big losses don't feel 'real' to me. I feel like I'll go on phase 3 and gain everything I've lost right back overnight. But I am feeling absolutely fine, and have far more energy than I could imagine on 500-800 calories a day.

My sister is in town visiting, and I'll write more about her reaction to my diet tomorrow, it's a bit too involved for me right at the moment. Let's just say, I'm glad I 'forgot' to mention the part about the injections...
