Total Lost 18.4
The apple day was finally necessary. Dr. Simeons said in Pounds & Inches that a plateau is inevitable in just about all cases. This week was mine. I hope I only have one because it was a little hard on the psychi. The apple day was a little easier than I expected. The thought of making it through an entire day with only apples was a bit daunting. Not only do you only consume apples, you do NOT consume any water. He specifically states that you can only drink water to quench extreme thirst. You are supposed to eat 6 apples throughout the day. With my schedule I managed to only get 4 in. It was enough though. I wasn't hungry and was just starting to get tired of apples by the last one. Not too bad. So it rewarded me with a 2 lb loss. Thats great considering the pattern over the last week. Other HCGers have told me that not only does it reward you on the following day, but it also jump starts the trend downward. So lets hope that the 20 lb loss is come and gone by this weekend.
Things are really getting fun now. Just about everywhere I go comments are made by friends and associates. Everyone is now noticing the weight loss. Thats been the funnest part of all. Some people will say, "you look different, have you lost weight?" I will sometimes respond, "No its probably just my hair cut." It is fun playing with it. The funny thing about this diet is that I am losing the weight so fast that many of the people haven't seen me since before Christmas. They are the ones that really notice the change.
I know that I am only at the halfway point, but I have decided that I have been so good with this diet that a big reward is in store in February. I know it is contrary to what I'm doing, but when I am done with this I am going to Outback Steakhouse and eating a plate of Aussie Cheese Fries and a Victoria's Filet Mignon. I'm sure it will make me sick, but I have been dreaming about it lately. I know I will probably gain 2 lbs from that meal alone, but it will just be the one meal so the weight will come back off in a couple of days after that. If I can manage this whole protocol without cheating, I think I deserve it. What do you think?
