Phase 3, Day 15: Hi everybody! Nothing exciting to report here, except that I'm still up over LIW. :( The good news, though, is that my body is really changing again. My size 18 pants are getting baggier each time I wear them, and I know my measurements have changed. Someone commented that my shoulders looked tiny, and that I must have a really small frame (which I do, underneath it all).
I promise to take measurements and new front/side view photos this week so that you can see the difference. In fact, I'd kind of like to see them, too, because the image that I see in the mirror is the same big gal I've been used to seeing for years.
The other day, though, I did catch a glimpse of the thinner me when I was walking up the sidewalk into the office. I unexpectedly saw my reflection in a window and thought, "Wow - I look GOOD!" Maybe it's because I wasn't expecting to see myself there because I'm usually either talking to people or so preoccupied with finding my building keys, etc. Funny how the mind plays tricks on us!
So - one more week of Phase 3, and then 5 weeks of Phase 4 - by that time, I'll be ready to start back on the injections again. In the meantime, I'll post periodically to let you know how things are going. And as always, thanks for reading - your comments keep me motivated!

So we're supposed to be on Phase 3 for 3 weeks then Phase 4 for 3 more weeks before we go back on the injections and 500 calories or lower. I'm so glad to learn more about what I'm doing. It's so exciting to read how well your doing and how you're adjusting to each Phase. My sister, my daughter and I are doing the diet together for our support group and its interesting how a 5 lb loss can help you realize that this CAN be done! Keep up the good work!!
