Day 15: Time for some math...

Morning Weight: 174.6

Morning Mood: Positive

Okay, it's time for some math. I've started a period which throws this whole thing upside down to some extent. I was not planning on having a cycle. I have Policystic Ovarian Syndrome and rarely have a period. When I do, they tend to last a long time (we're talking as long as 30 days). So, I'm off the cream until Friday, but if I do not stop bleeding I will take a progesterone supplement to stop it and continue HCG on Friday. I have 18 doses left. So, I will be finished with the cream on Monday, August 3 and continue the low calorie diet until Thursday the 6th. So, that will be a total of 38 days on the diet, 36 on VLCD with 23 remaining.

My total weight loss is 11.4 pounds. I have averaged .76 pounds lost per day. If I continue this rate I will loose 27.3 pounds and weigh 158.7. My goal weight is 150, so I'll have to do another round in October to get it all off. I really really hope by some miracle I can get to the 30 pounds mark this time around, but we'll see. I'll stay strong and hopefully I'll be rewarded.

I'll post some pics tomorrow. :)

Day 14: More water...

Morning Weight: 175.6

Morning Mood: Neutral

I went to check in with the doctor this morning. I reported that I was down 10.4 pounds and he was very positive. He says I am well ahead of schedule for most women. That's good. He gave me a b-12 shot for a boost of vitamins and sent me on my way. I know I am lacking in water in-take. I am not having to use the bathroom nearly as much as I was in the beginning and my throat is dry all the time. I need to really push the water. I'm sure it'll help to flush my system even further. So that's my goal for the next couple of days: MORE WATER.

Day 13: Finally

Morning Weight: 176.0

Morning Mood: Relieved

I was really anxious for this 10 pound mark. In fact, I got up and weighed and I was 176.2 and outraged because I really wanted to get there, So I weighed again in an hour and it was 176. So, I fudged a little, but I knew I was going to be there. I tried on a dress that's been hanging in the closet waiting for my thin self to wear it, but it's still a little snug. It'll probably take another 5-10 pounds to really get into it. But it's a size 10 and I'm getting closer.
