VLCD day 11.
I want to have something profound to write here.. but really I’m just bumping along. It’s day 11 and I finally grok the diet. Grab four things for lunch, pack your lunchbox. Head to work. It’s very simple. I’m still missing breakfast terribly but at least after I have my coffee my morning food cravings tamp down.
Moroccan Meatballs are full of yum.. though a friend at work informs me that I really can’t call them “moroccan” unless I make them out of lamb. I’ll keep that in mind for the future.
A few days ago I made up 2 lbs of meatballs and froze the cooked meatballs in individual portions in the freezer. This has been lovely for grab-and-go lunches. I plan to do the same thing with some chicken tonight.
The scale is headed in the right direction.. and my attitude is pretty peppy. That said.. last night I realized that I’m losing all this weight.. right after I finished a really nice self-supportive form-fitting dress. I’m dreading this weekend and hoping (cross my fingers) that the dress is still supportive. If not.. that’d suck.. but it’s better than staying fat.
It’s odd that a difference of only 9 lbs is making me think this.. but this feels different. Last time I lost weight and got to this size I was about 10 lbs lighter. I’m not sure where my body is storing that extra 10 lbs.. but right now, at 289 I feel weight wise about where I felt at 272 two years ago. Very odd.
After this week I plan to drop down a pant size (I’ve had them in my closet for a while) but I don’t plan to buy any new pants until this round is over.
There.. I guess I had something to say.. not terribly profound… but it’s something.
