Labor Day Weekend

Hello Everyone!!
Things are going really well for me on Phase 3. I am still at my last injection weight of 158.5. My weight has been extremely steady, never going much over my LIW. I have found that the key for me is weighing myself each morning and then adjusting my food for the day based on my weight that morning. If I'm a little over LIW, I drink more water and stick ridgidly to the diet. If I'm a little under LIW, I relax a little more that day. So far, everything is wonderful. I've lost a total of 26 pounds so far this summer. I have some other good news! My daughter-in-law did the diet during July and August and lost 28 pounds!!!!! We waited until the new baby was 3 months old to give her body a chance to "calm down" a little. The diet worked like a charm for her!! We're doing P3 in September and then we're going to lose a few more pounds in October and hopefully we'll be finished. Shauna (my D-I-L) is doing very very well on P3 as well. She's been at her LIW everyday but one, she did a steak day and went right back down to LIW. On Labor Day we are having a family cookout and will be taking pictures. I will include a new picture next week, I'll try to get one with Shauna and the baby (Addison) as well. Hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday weekend and I'll be back with you next week!

Monday

Hello Everyone,
My weight this morning is 160.0. I'm about to be back in the 150's again! Things are going well, been busy at work. Still (always) having trouble drinking all the required water. I wonder why some people are thirstier than others? I never seem to be thirsty. Well, everything else is going well. L8R
