Total loss 76.8

I lost 1.6; however, I weighed in at 8:00 a.m., because I was there for a blood draw. Naturally, you're gonna weigh less after a "12 hour fast." I weighed 168.0.

Total loss 75.6

I gained 2.2 pounds this week, weighing in at 169.6 yesterday. I was not happy about this, but there was some great comfort food awaiting me at Cracker Barrel where I met all three of my sisters and Lena and Natasha. I told someone at work that I gained 2.2 and she said, "Isn't that what you were losing?" Yes, 2.2 was a common loss number when I was on the liquid diet. Gotta get a hold of myself. Gotta taste how delicious those healthy foods are, like apples, bananas, grapes, and oatmeal. (Had all of that for breakfast this morning for 370 calories total). I counted 1295 calories at Cracker Barrel last night, which woulda been OK if I hadn't already had 960 before I got there and more after I left. Of that 1295, 630 was in the form of grilled sourdough with jelly. That stuff is so good! Well, I'm rambling. I'm embarrassed.

Total loss 77.8

I weighed exactly the same as last week, 167.4. YAY! I'm happy with that. This was my first week of sustaining. It will only be called sustaining for 4 of the 8 weeks I'm in it - they're revamping it to be called balance and some "tools" will change. But already it's free. I am required to go to class and clinic for another 7 weeks in order to become a lifetime sustainer or I guess balancer, and then I still get to go for free. I don't really understand what the advantages are of going for 8 weeks, except after that I don't have to go any more.

Total loss 77.8

I gained 1.8 pounds, so I'm now at 167.4. It's hard to lose those last couple of pounds when I'm eating so much. Let this be a wake-up call to me!
