Day 33

Well it's been a few day's since I've posted.  I'm currently at 156.6 pounds and have 2 full days left before starting week 6!  I'm hoping to continue with losses of an average .5 - .6 a day to hopefully be in the mid 140's before ending the VLC days.  If I can do that, I think I can do the rest on my own and not need to do another round.  Lets just hope for a good stabilization period!

I'm wondering, since I never had an issue with gaining and could eat anything if I can keep myself active if I'll be able to get back to something similar.  I don't mean eat as much as I want or anything like that but to not have any sensitivities to foods and am able to eat the foods I enjoy without a drastic effect from them.  I'm thinking/hoping as long as I can keep my activity (gym) up along with water intake and watch my portions/servings I can maintain and loss to get to my goal of 125 - 130 by Oct 12th!  If I maintain and don't lose during phase 3 and start losing in phase 4, I'll have 7 weeks to lose and with a healthy average of 2-3 pounds of lose a week that would give me 14-21 I can lose and be okay.  So if I end this round (phase 2) at 147 and stay there through phase 3 (3 weeks) that would give me 7 weeks to be between 126-133, that would be great!!!! I know though since I haven't been there in about 8-9 years this may be hard and since it will be close to my goal weight/suggested weight this could be challenging and losses may not be 2-3 pounds, I'll just see what happens and go from there... One day at a time!!!  But it is great to know that my goal is completely reachable at this rate!  Worse case, I do a short round starting (loading) on my birthday and finish in time for phase 3 to end around Thanksgiving.

Well that's all I really have, I've found that Hy-Vee has the Walden Farms products so I got a few of them tonight along with the zevia pop.  Also, the meat locker sales lean ground beef ($3/lb cheaper) and Hy-Vee carries the 95/5 $2 cheaper than Whole Foods and our farmer's market in town is picking up so I may not have to do the KC trips much if at all anymore, save more money, YAY!!!

I CAN/AM DOING THIS!!!!
