Ok, so I should have posted this on Saturday (which I intend to make my official 'check-in day'. I would apologize but considering all of the great content I've posted so far I can't figure out how you can live with yourself when you aren't paying me. But I guess that's between you and your conscience.
I have been doing this now since the 1st of July, making Saturday, the 20th day. Henceforth I will round up to a full week, and Saturday will be called the end of my 'x' week. In this case the end of week three. I honestly believed when I started writing this entry that I had been doing this for five weeks. This effect can be attributed to the 'chrono-kinetic time-dilation' caused by the foods consumed while on a... Wellness Eating Plan, that's right I haven't forgotten W.E.P. completely.
It has been posited by some extraordinary minds (mine) that this chrono-kinetic time-dilation is specifically caused by the energy potential lost through a spatial distortion, which is simply a fancy way to describe where fat goes when you 'lose' it. This is more of an advanced W.Ea.P.O.N. concept (Wellness EAting Plan Obesity Neophyte) which will become clear as you advance in the program.
In any case I thought I'd been doing this for five weeks and was disappointed in my loss and pleased with my stick-to-it-iveness and now I am forced to confront the reality, that I am pleased with my progress and while not displeased with my stamina, less impressed by two weeks.
So here it is. I weighed at the doctor's office on June 28th at 528 lbs. That was with all of my weigh-in clothes on (which are nine pounds). What? You don't have weigh in clothes? Well get some. I know the specific weight to the ounce of every article of clothing I own. This makes weighing in public helpful since the last time I stripped to weigh-in I had to switch doctors... prudes!
Subtracting my weigh-in clothing I was 519 pounds. and as of Saturday I was 502 pounds. I would be more disappointed in this except for the fact that I gained TWELVE POUNDS IN ONE FREAKING DAY the week previous. You can see why I was not anxious then, to post my progress the previous Saturday.
What happened you may be asking? Well I had what we in the biz (as advanced W.EaP.O.N.s) a free day. Look I am not going to make excuses, but you should understand that it was both our anniversary AND Irene my delightful, beautfiul and brilliant bride graduated with her baccalaureate in Informatics. We agreed in advance not to count calories or worry about dieting so that we could celebrate in style. I do free days in the excessive style of Bill Clinton at a Miss USA pageant.
Long story short, I had to relose twelve pounds and actually lost thirteen for a total loss to date of 30 pounds. Don't like how I did the math? Alright, then accept a seventeen pound loss and thats ok too. The bottom line is, I have consistently lost weight, virtually every day so far and this pleases me.
I am feeling good, though admittedly a little sluggish at times. I have had no hunger since the 2nd day and my cravings subsided a couple of weeks ago.
As an example of some changes I have experienced, I have been adding sweetener to unsweetened almond milk since I started drinking it because it tasted bitter to at first and today I had the chance to try it unsweetened again and discovered I now find it pleasant and not at all bitter. This will not surprise any of you who have read much about low-carb diets or have experienced them, since the experience seems almost universal.
Here is to another successful week!
