Long time, no update

Sorry about that! Well, it's been two months (and change) since I had my last hcg injection. I'm doing great! As of this morning, I'm a pound below the LIW (last injection weight). So far, so good. I'll do a more comprehensive update soon.

Woot!

For some reason (fuzzy math), my weight is the lowest it's been (in some time, mind you).  It's drifted down to 3# below my LIW.  Now, in theory, I'm supposed to eat more to make it go up.  Yeah, that'll happen. 

Alas, it will.  Tomorrow night.  :)

About two months into stabilization

Still holding my own!  Yay!  It seems I can have a couple of meals off per week ("Off" meaning I can have simple carb in them).  Sweet!  Hard to keep it at that level; it wants to creep up.

I take this as a good sign.  The times I've gained weight back have been after surgery, and...the incident.  Still mad at my doctor for pushing me to do that fourth cycle in a year (best let that go, I think).  It was too much.  My body freaked out and literally the day after my last shot I started gaining and didn't stop til I gained most of it back.  :(  Yeah, that sucked.

So these days I'm holding a 60# weight loss.  Totally going for more, but we must be gingerly about these things.  My body doesn't follow regular rules.

Nice!

Weight was down more than enough.  It was even below my LIW (last injection weight)!  Weird, huh?  No complaints here.  I'll take it.

Tomorrow is my dad's birthday.  I think I can "afford" a piece of cake!

Detoxing

Well, that was fun.  After Easter and two days traveling and hanging out with our peeps, my weight is out of the zone (by half a pound).  And I'm kinda sick--not from the hanging out part, from the eating like a stoat part.

I was prepped for a steak day, but they make me feel awful.  Truly.  And I've noticed two days after scarb ingestion, my weight goes down on its own.  So I'm trying something: doing it without a steak day.  I'm drinking a lot of water and going low calorie/high protein and fiber.  Then tomorrow, if I'm not well back in my zone (which I believe I will be): the dreaded steak day (Feh).  I think all will be well. 

Sure nice to spend two days with our friends.  Good for the soul.

Today we're getting a little house upgrade we've wanted for years uncounted (a new fan--with remote control and light--for our living area).  Makes me do this:  :)
