Day 1, version 3?

Ya know, it's okay. The whole point of this 'diet' is that it is supposed to be a lifestyle change. You go on phase 1 to jumpstart, cleanse, get going...phase 2 you are supposed to stay on until you reach your goal weight, and then you go on phase 3 for maintenance.

When I started in November, I stayed on phase 1 for 3 weeks. I did really well up until Christmas. New Years. Then I got sick in January with that God awful stomach flu and could not eat ANYTHING - not even fluids for 4 days...after that was all said and done, it took me some time to get back on track. Then, February came - and I celebrated. A lot. So there was cake, and drinking, and eating late at night because of drinking. BUT - I was still okay...not over doing it. I have managed to not gain...but I haven't lost much in the last 6 weeks either.

So, Chelsea and I made a deal last night. By June 1 - we both want to be under 200. I have a little more to go than she does, but we both need to get our asses in gear and motivate one another.

Thus - phase 1 starts again, today. 2 weeks will take me to April 4. I'll post an update weight wise next Monday, and again on the 4th...here goes - Round 3.

  1. seems the funk is going around. I'm sure we'll both snap out of it soon enough!! Go you though - like I told you on FB, if you get through tomorrow, you're set - days 3 and 4 suck but YOU CAN DO IT!
