Day 20

Hello,

I can't believe it is already day 20, I am half way through, wohoo! I wanted to share with you my status for the past 4 days since I was not able to post during that time.

Day 17
Weight: 231.5
loss/gain- +.5 ( I couldn't believe I only gained .5 after the horrible day that I had on Wed)

Day 18
Weight: 229.5
Loss- 2 pounds (Wohoo!)

Day 19
Weight: 229.0
Loss- .5

Day 20
Weight: 227
Loss- 2 pounds

I am so excited with the results. In so many ways I am also proud of myself for sticking with something, and trying not to falter. I have a monthly craft night with a group of girls and it was my turn to host. I was really worried about this because we all bring treats to share and I knew I would be tempted. I gave into the fact that I would probably eat some of the treats. Luckily my sister brought fresh tomatoes and cucumbers and I tried to eat as much of that as I could, and I am happy to report that I only had a little bite of a cookie. Also on Sunday my niece had her birthday party, and I decided to have a thin slice of cake, and it hasn't hurt me so far. I have come to the conclusion that you can still loose weight on this diet even if you have a little bite or taste of something sweet. Now I am not recommending that everybody should do this, but so far this has worked for me. I am still noticing change in my body, but not yet to the point that I can go down a size in clothes, but all of my clothes that I am wearing now are getting loose. I look forward to the day when I can wear smaller clothes. Luckily I kept a lot of my smaller jeans.
