Start weight 161.4
Today's weight 150.1
Gain/Loss -.5
I've lost what I gained yesterday. I'm hoping tomorrow will drop me down below 150! It's seams like I've been stuck here for a while. I've also decided that for the rest of this phase I'm going to do an apple day once a week unless my weight loss really kicks in again. I've heard that it does at the end of the 3rd week and the 4th week. I hope so. At this rate It's going to be difficult for me to make my goals without staying on the program longer. I had hoped to be down 30 pounds from my LDW of 155, which would put me at 125, but that's another 25 pounds and I only have 23 more days to go. So I can either do another round later in the spring or I can hang in there and see how much more I can lose staying on the drops a few more days. I guess it will depend on what I"m weighing at the end of the 40 days!

Still not eating the bread. Hoping it will help with the weight loss. I did finish all my water today and had several cups of tea on top of that. I just can't wait to get below 150! It's like the halfway mark. Plus I can't remember the last time I weighed below 150. I think it was after I joined Weight Watchers the first time back in 2003!

R2P2 - Day 16
Start weight 161.4
Today's weight 150.6
Gain/Loss +.5
I was so disappointed today to have gained. I really thought today would be the day I dropped below 150! Oh well, maybe tomorrow. Every time I get discouraged I remind myself that I've lost a total of 29.2 pounds since last year. That's amazing! Just another .8 and I'll be down 30 pounds with only 20 more to go. That keeps me motivated to stick with it.
Breakfast - 5
Coffee with vanilla cream stevia
Lunch - 225
100 g chicken breast
2 c cabbage
apple
Dinner - 235
100 g ground sirloin steak (made into a patty)
1 small tomato
1 slice red onion
brown mustard
strawberries
I had a bun less hamburger for dinner. It was a nice change of pace. I'm not a big fan of hamburgers but it was very good. I cheated a little with the slice of onion, but who wants to eat only tomato on their hamburger?

Yes, the apple day worked! Way better than it did the last time I tried it in round 1. Now if it will just get the weight loss kicked in again! I was very good today and have stopped eating the bread again just to see if it makes a difference.

I'm a little short on my water intake for the day. It's been really cold again, and I always find it harder to drink water when it's cold. Have about 20 more ounces to drink before bed!

R2P2 - Day 14
Start weight 161.4
Today's weight 152.3
Gain/Loss +.6
I guess the tale was told and it didn't work out in my favor! So today's an apple day. I went to the grocery store this morning and picked several different types of apples. It's actually something I've always wanted to do. I bought Ambrosia, Jazz, Pacific Rose, Gala and Red delicious. My favorite was the Pacific Rose. It was very crisp and slightly sweet. One of my favorite apples is Honeycrisp but they were out of them. Now it's a toss up between the two. Wasn't impressed with the Jazz, but I know getting them out of season can make a big difference in how they taste and all apples have different seasons. I've had some red delicious apples that tasted terrible and I've had some really good ones. So I haven't given up on the Jazz yet. I'll try it again at a different time of year to see if that makes a difference. Interestingly, there are over 3,000 varieties of apples. If you ate a different one every day for a year it would take you over 8 years to sample each one.
