being tech challanged , im trying to get there, just logging food is done at end of day. I did weigh yesterday and showed i ve lost 4 pounds. Feel fine with exception of breaking a rib and not beeing able to do my regular exercise. Ive been doing the shakes with just water and ice which tastes great. last 4 months i had been using skim milk. Im trying to add more veggies with my noon meal. Love the stir fry veggies that i steam and add the extra virgin oil after they're cooked. One day at a time is my motto! Only 17 days to go! Hummus is going to be my snak today been missing it.:( Although after reading at myfittnesspal that if i do this for 5 weeks i could lose 52#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6 Pounds Becky! Awesome!

4 Pounds Pam! Wowza!

Keep up the good work ladies :-)

Today I added 1 cup of spinach to my shake and couldn't even taste it!

last night was a little harder... I knew the weekend was going to be the challenge. Im sticking to it though and this morning I got into the cleaning mode and its so satisfiying to see more organization and not be in the kitchen area. Getting ready to have my shake and continue laundry and cleaning. If this keeps up I might be able to invite Martha Stewart over for inspection;) !!!! Just kidding I dont even really care for her. Christmas wrapping and Tree decorations on the agenda for tomarrow. That way food doesn't even have to be on my mind. Its a quote( not sure originator) Let food be your medicine!

I have been amazed by how well my energy has been doing during all of this. How has everyone else's energy been? Last night I started moving into my new flat in oldtown. Minh and I did two large rounds of moving after seeing patients and then running errands for a couple of hours. I don't know it it was the excitement of the new space or the detox support, but my energy did great and I slept like a baby last night. The one thing that I did not do well yesterday was eat a snack before lunch. My blood sugar bottomed out and I got shaky and felt light-headed. Good lesson learned! Plan Ahead!

Pam: Way to distract yourself! AND you are burning extra calories while cleaning! It's a home and body detox :-D haha Keep up the good work, it is worth it! You are having increased energy now, imagine how you will feel on day 21!

Distraction is my middle name today, finished a book too. Told my husband tonight I'm going to get my guitar out and try relearning how to play.:smokin: Probably should work on Christmas cards and wrapping instead. Have a good weekend and I'll see ya Monday
