Wow! Made an emergency food order on Monday (day 5 of the IP program) because breakfast sucked so much! Needed omelets... so I ordered a bunch of food...
Well the staff at the office said "You want us to measure and weigh you now? Or do you want to wait til Wednesday (scheduled first week weigh in)?" Sure, why not?
Lost ten pounds and 5 inches in 5 days!
Today Wednesday lost another 4 pounds! 14 pounds in a week! Ketone test strips have me at 40mg/dL.
I know I'm a young puppy and these results are atypical but you have to celebrate the small victories...
Getting more creative with cooking too while staying strictly within IP edicts. Steaming, stir frying veggies within my 2 tsps of olive oil allowance, using lots of authorized seasonings, roasting my garlic... much more palatable. Hunger is not there sometimes or not as bad...
Over time, things will likely change due to our shared humanity but I hope to keeps things going in the right direction...
Ingsoc!
