VLCD #22: -.4

Another loss this morning, and I'm proud of myself for an astounding achievement last night! My chorus had an installation dinner for the Board of Directors that I had to attend, and it was at one of my very favorite Italian restaurants. I planned ahead of time to not eat and ate dinner before I came. Specifically, I ate a lot of protein yesterday to make sure that I wouldn't be hungry. At dinner, I was fine sitting there drinking tea, and even the smells of the fresh-baked rolls and cheese-covered garlic bread didn't get to me. So this morning, the scale is smiling, even though I'm thinking that my last injection weight from yesterday is really the one that I need to look at when I get to the protein phase on Friday.

Anyway, here are my stats: weight was 216.2 lbs this morning, with 18.6 lbs lost this round of Phase 2, and 42.6 lbs lost total. I do believe that if I behave myself on this next round, the 190's are withing striking distance! :)
