VLCD #7: -.4

Looks like the scale is on its way back down again, thank goodness! Today's itty bitty loss of .4 takes me to a total of -10.2 lbs for the seven days that I've been on the Very Low Calorie Diet. I would like to have lost more today, but will take anything that I can get! In the past when I was on Weight Watchers, it might take me TWO WEEKS to lose .4 lbs, so I really need to just hush up and be grateful! :)

I'm increasingly struck by how many times my supposed "hunger" is really boredom or thirst. I've been keeping water or iced tea at hand at all times, and have taken in a lot of liquid! At work today, I was particularly busy and never got a chance to even think about food.

All in all, I'm really pleased with the way things are going, and am looking forward to having some good losses by the end of the week.

No surprises on the menu today, but here it is anyway!
Lunch:
Halibut

VLCD #1

Injection Day #3, the morning after my 2 Load Days, and the scales showed me at 235.8 this morning. I was pretty aggressive with the eating on Monday and Tuesday, so consequently packed on almost 4 lbs!

However, I think that helped me today with the Very Low Calorie Diet - I haven't been hungry at all, although I did drink a lot of tea and water.

Feelings-wise, I was pretty draggy. It was a little tough to focus at work - maybe it was from being so excited about doing this again. Also, I don't know how many trips to the restroom I made, but judging from the frequency, I had to have lost quite a bit of water weight!

Lunch today:
Chicken Breast
Celery
Apple

Dinner:
Halibut
Cabbage (steamed)
Apple
