Today's Weight: 147.0 lbs
Yesterday: 149.4 lbs
TOM
I was happy to see the weight come down a bit from steak day but I'm still such a long way from 140.0. I'm not even trying to get back to my LIW of 136.6 lb. Hell, I can't lose 10 pounds unless I cut something off. I wanted to start another round of HCG now that's it's going on 7 weeks between Round 2 and Round 3. But I didn't know if I should even try to do another round if I can't stabilize on Phase 4 of round 2 or I'm wondering if another round will help get me back on a better track. Right now TOM is in full bloom so I would have to wait until later on this week, early next week. I didn't eat all that well today though. I think I'm just getting really frustrated and totally hormonal from TOM. Tomorrow I expect to be near 150.0 again. Apple/Cheese day for me tomorrow. I'm going to alternate correction and normal days until I can get back to +- 140.0 or until I decide to start another round. Ugg, I'm so frustrated. Now I've gained ALL the weight I lost on Round 2. I'm beginning to feel that I should just eat whatever I want and not put my family and friends through the trouble of having to deal with my not eating or extreme dieting. And this is with diet pills mind you. If I didn't take Dexatrim I'd eat my own hand. I just recently started eating P4 foods like organic gluten free tortillas or god forbid potatoes. And they just added another 1.5-2 hour roller derby practice a week so I'm even skating more often than before and sure enough like before my weight becomes impossible to control. I was going to start running again but I can't imagine how much I'm going to balloon out! I would start pulling my hair out if it wasn't falling out already! LOL Actually that's gotten much better since I started eating more P4 foods. Ok, ok, I'm done bitching. Focus, focus, focus!
Hmmm....did you get the thyroid checked? Not sure if you previously said that it was an issue or not. Your body must be really toned from all the exercise you're getting? Sounds like it might be best to continue on P4 for a while and see what happens and then decide to go back to P2 or not. I pull out a handful of hair every time I wash mine. But it's always been like that. I have curly hair and I use a lot of product in it so by the time I wash it it's full of tangles. I had to have the shower wall taken apart years back because the drain was so clogged and full of my hair.
ReplyDeleteHang in there - I know it's tough. Stay on P4 and see what happens.
Man, TOM throws me for a loop every time. I gain like crazy, but it usually comes down 4 - 5 pounds on it's own in the next week! I hope it works out that way for you. I like your alternate correction day theory, gonna try that for myself some time. Anyways, sorry that you're struggling, and I hope things get easier.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog. I love that you're a rollergirl. Color me hooked! I left you something on my blog, if you do that sort of thing. Here's the link! Best!
Kathryn- LOL I have curly hair too and my husband hates cleaning the drain! My thyroid tests are normal but I have an inflamed thyroid with 3 nodules so it might be I'm fighting the thyroid issues. I want to say I'm going to be smart and stay on P4 but I think I'm getting disillusioned and itching to prove myself right or wrong on P2.
ReplyDeleteBunpoh- I'm glad someone else has big swings on TOM. I like to blame TOM. :)
You are so sweet, thank you for your comments on my blog, Everyone's support is so helpful! Thank you for the link also. Thx you thank you!! I'm going to add a post and address it more properly later on today.
Hey there, love the blog. I'm on Phase 4 and the weight is creeping up. When you did your steak day, which version did you do? I was going to try the one from "pounds and inches" two eggs, steak for lunch and then for dinner, but so many say it's only one steak for dinner with a tomato? I'm confused and would like to know what you did.
ReplyDeleteAlso, my hair is falling out- did it ever stop for you?
