I got really sick yesterday around noon... vomitting a bit but VERY nauseous. I just couldn't fight it. When I get sick (you know.. your stomach hurts, you just feel incredibly awful) then I want mashed potatoes. They are warm, bland, filling; my go to comfort food. I soooooo badly wanted them yesterday. Or even a plain baked potato. But a potato can set you and your weight loss back by THREE DAYS!! I got encouragement from a friend who is also doing the diet right now so I stayed the course. I ate a little bit, but ONLY ate what I was allowed to have.
I was rewarded with a sense of satisfaction AND with another 1.5 lbs lost yesterday. (I lost 7 on Monday that I gained the previous two days, 2 each on Tuesday and Wednesday and 1.5 on Thursday, total of 5.5 in 3 days!!) Another friend thought it might be my body detoxifying. Probably so.
Today I still feel pretty crappy, but I am determined to see this through. Once I get past this phase, I'll be SOOOOO much better off. I do hope the 1.5-2 lbs a day will continue for another 10 days or so. I am such a large woman, that that is not unheard of. However, I will not be discouraged, dismayed or taken off course should the rate of loss change. It WILL just continue in whatever rate it should. As long as I do my part, the fat has to go. The SCIENCE behind why the drops work, and how your body holds and then releases the three types of fat is very interesting.
Believing God for more victories today. My stomach really hurts, but I'll just plug along. I really appreciate the encouragement many of you are giving me!! Bless you!!
