Well... I'm going back in the right direction. Right now I'm just focusing on getting to my LIW. I've got 2.5 lbs to go & I WILL get there by wednesday of this week. I think that's realistic since my weight loss has slowed down this week.

Nakia hasn't weighed in yet. He's still sleeping after coming in late last night from hanging out with a friend drinking. I don't know how many drinks he had, but I think he was pretty roasted when his friend dropped him off last night. I didn't know about the fried chicken until I saw the evidence this morning. At first I was just mortified, but then I realized... ok, yeah I told him that he would gain if he deviated, but maybe he had to see it for himself. He hasn't read P&I so he only knows what I've told him. I'm going to make him read it today though. We'll just chalk this up as a learning experience. I did wake him up briefly so I could YELL at him though.... I just couldn't resist. I also asked him if he wanted to stay on the protocol and he said yes without even thinking about it so that's a good thing. So... today I'm raising his dosage to 175 by the advice of a friend on the myhcgjourney forum. Hopefully he'll lose some of his cravings after that.

Biz - When I went back over our menu's for thursday, I realized that we probably both had too many calories. I haven't been measuring everything like I did on the last round, just the protein. I think I may have over shot his vegetable servings for the day. I've started meticulously measuring again though. I don't want a repeat of that.

Mary - hey miss mary! luvya back girlie. I'm feeling better today after my weigh in, but I'm really dreading Nakia's weigh in. I'll update if and when he gets on the scale. Whatever happens... I know the hcg will fix it so it's really not all that bad.

Burcu - Yeah... that was a rough one for me. Brownies are one of my all time favorites. Your comment really made me feel better. Thank you my friend.

Oh, I'm fearing his weigh in as well!! You're right, this is how we learn. I really hate the second week of P2, our losses slow and we don't see the wonderful numbers we saw on the first week but we must stay strong!!!

Let us know what the magical number is for today, okay?

Hey girrrrrrr! You're almost to LIW-yay! Nakia, Nakia, Nakia-now you're starting to sound like buddy boy Ed. Monica, good job for waking him up to YELL at him-LOL!

Hey you let me know if you need tips on whipping him into shape (yeah right)! So this is Ed's 4th round and he's just now reading the manuscript-what would they do without us? I know, they would be fat and not match (including wearing a brown belt with black shoes)!

Love ya!

Monica, I'm sure that his will power went out the window once he had a few drinks and that's why he ate the chicken, so you're right to yell at him, but you can blame it on the booze. So maybe you should yell at him about THAT! LOL! So this will be a lesson learned for him. (Unless he actually loses, in which case, you're never going to be able to stop him!)
So a good loss for you anyway and yes! you're so close to LIW! Keep up the good work!
