Day 17
Day 17.
Starting weight 222.8
Todays weight 203.2
While total lost is pretty good still depressed some as weight has not been going down for three or four days very quickly at all.
Would expect from my maintenance calories of about 2500 and from extra activities been doing to see 2/3 or pound a day coming off but it hasn't been happenning for last 3 or 4 days.
I am staying very close to water only fast ,sometimes have sip of juice for taste. I have been drinking sometimes monster low calorie which is 20 cal can. Like one a day only some days. Some days was drinking some green tea with splenda and bit of 1% milk and yesterday did have bit of milkshake maybe 100 cal of that just tasted sons didn't have my own and tasted bit of dark chocolate bar that father had just small piece just for taste in mouth.
I do tend to taste bit as get near end of fast and was planning to end on day 20 or 21 but said few times that wanted to end this fast in the 190 to 195 range since know can gain back 5 to 10 or so on re feed from salt and carbs holding water in my body.
I should have been burning thru pound a day almost from the activity been doing lately. Have not been sitting around ,energy has been pretty good actually.
Oh well almost 202 today and should be there tomorrow and sometimes you just drop two
pounds or more doing this all of a sudden maybe 203 is natural sticking point seems sometimes you get them.
So not giving up today. Will do treadmill today for 30 minutes, weights today, and some garage cleaning and organizing.
But sure better see 202 on the scale tomorrow!! Being under 200 is very pychological for me. I haven't been this light in 20 years! And its also great that have to get some new pants again soon gone down from 42 to 36 already and more to go! I throw away my fat pants.burn the bridge so to speak! LOL I will not gain this weight back!
