My husband was able to enjoy it when he got home from work. I wanted to be extra careful and walk on egg shells because I have my mind set on caving but then I realized with the croissant I didn't even really want it when it was right in front of me and I made the choice to remove it from being in my face. I am feeling STRONG now!

My center doesn't do rocks, so I'm trying to decide what I want to do to celebrate.. Without food.. What a great way to start the weekend..

Hope ya'll have a great weekend.. See less of you next week..:goodluck:

Hey everyone...Joining back in. Started on Tuesday. Have about 25-30 lbs to lose. Had first weigh in today and was down 3.8 lbs. Looking forward to participating in the board again. Have been off the wagon for 6 months now sad to say..
Have a great MRC weekend!

I'm back from Peru and went straight to weigh in. I ate on plan as best i could, but wasn't totally able to. I took tons of C&F blockers, drank 8+ waters every day and always maxed HNS and did a fiber a day.

The good news is, I didn't feel like i was too obsessive about eating on plan, strayed a little but didn't indulge which helped me really feel like this is sustainable and i'll be just fine on maintenance. The other good news is I didn't gain any weight, but weighed in at the same I was before I left. However, I think I was retaining a bunch of water from all the flying, so I think i actually might have lost a bit.

I started this morning on meta quick to help kickstart my body into ketosis again and am hoping to have a really good loss week when the water comes off.

It's time to really focus now as i'm in week 10 of 24 and am only about a third of the way there in terms of weight. I really really want to do this without having to do extra weeks!

Oh and in case anyone is interested, customs and TSA didn't even notice the enormous supply of HNS, Fibers, Pills and Meal Bars I had on me.

Hope everyone is having a great april!

Definitely an awesome start, go you!

I weighed in last night and I'm down 4.5 lbs. Signed the 45 lb board and I'm only 3 lbs away from the 50 lb board! I might actually make it by my goal of the end of the month. :carrot:

I mentioned when I weighed in that I still feel fat, like I'll always be fat. So my next visit is going to be my 're-motivator', take some new pictures, do full measurements and body comp - so there is something more than my skewed perception of myself and the number on the scale to tell me how far I've come.
