VLCD #4: -2.2

Only .8 more lb, and I'll be back to my Last Injection Weight! This morning, the scale was kind to me, once again, and showed me at 227.6 after a 2.2 lb loss. I'm thankful that the few lbs that I gained during Phase 4 and during this round's loading came off so quickly. By Monday, I should be in "Virgin Fat Territory" again and well on the way to Onederland, which is my goal for these first two "short rounds" that I'll be doing.

Found a place in Fort Worth to get a colonic, and decided to have one today. It was an interesting experience, and I certainly felt good afterwards. I was a little concerned that there would be some oily substance used for the reflexology part when she was massaging my feet during the colonic, but if anything she used a tiny bit of tea tree oil. I guess we'll see in the morning what the scale says about all this!

I have a memorial service to attend tonight for a friend's husband who died suddenly last month. Afterwards, she's having a gathering at her home. I'm telling you - this lady is a "foodie"! She's an awesome cook, and doesn't want anyone in her home to go hungry. So I think I'm going to take some celery to have in my purse, just in case. I'll make an appearance, say "hello" to everyone, and then head on back home.

So many of our social gatherings revolve around food - one has to have a lot of mental fortitude if they're going to stay the course during Phase 2. I just keep reminding myself of the progress that I've made, and the great rewards that are to be gained by just hanging in there through this short round. Then I'm going to make the most of my next 2 Load days! :)
