vlcd 21 - down 1.2 lbs. "confessions"

weighed in at 197.00. I'm going to cut out my fruit today to see if my weight loss will speed up a little, but oh how I love my apples! I have a confession to make. I've been eating macadamia nuts for the past 3 days now , Wed night, Thursday and Friday. I wasn't sure if I would lose today because I ate too many last night with it being Friday and staying up late. I'm quitting while I'm ahead and not eating anymore. I wonder how they are affecting my weight loss. Well, it's off to the mall to take my daughter shopping.

  1. Maybe just try cutting down to 1 apple Gena, and have 1/2 in the morning and 1/2 in the afternoon. That's what I did until the last week or so of P2. I loved my apples too, they were something that I never stopped enjoying, unlike most of the other protocol food. You're doing great, macadamia nuts or not - I had read somewhere that they can help you get past a stall so I'll be trying that my next round. Have fun at the mall :-)

  2. Good you are still coming down. I am doing an apple day I am stalled at 188 and have been like this for the last 4 days. I have not cheated at all although I wanted to eat just one teaspoon of hot cherry peppers the other night. I'm just disappointed with this stall, but keep doing what you are doing. Hopefully tomorrow will be different and the numbers will change.

  3. Christy,

    I have been doing a half apple twice a day from the beginning since I couldn't find small apples.I saw on a couple of forums and on you tube where mac nuts helps a stall so I figured I'd try it. I haven't had any major gains since eating them but I don't want to push my luck. They are so satisfying!Anyway, I hope I see a loss that reflects all the walking and carrying bags we did today. Have fun tonite!

    Edith,
    I'm going to tell you what others have told me..."don't lose your resolve!" You really are doing great ...16lbs in 21 days is AWESOME! I understand about wanting to cheat. My boss gave me a box of homemade fudge and cookies. I gave them to my daughter and told her to hide them from me. Cheating will make you feel worse and whatever it is will be there when you finish your round(that's what I kept telling myself at the mall today) IT'S NOT WORTH IT!
