Its a good thing that today was a day for measurements. I'm sure you can guess why.
Day #21 203.2
Day #22 203.6
Total GAINED 0.4 lbs
Isn't it wonderful to see a gain on the scale when you're consuming 500 calories per day. It's kinda like taking a 3000 mile roadtrip across the country to Wally World and finding out it is closed when you arrive. Oh the joys and entertainment of the human body.
Now the reason I say that it is a good thing that today was also a measurement day is because without these measurement figures below I woulda blew my stack. I was mocked by the scale for being so good but fortunately given some great numbers in measurements.
Check it out.
Start Current Lost
Neck 17.5 17 .5
Chest 46.5 44 2.5
Dunlop 45 42 3.0
Waist 38.5 37 1.5
Thigh 25.75 24 1.75
Total inches lost is over 9 inches.
I guess the thing to remember is what Dr. Simeon says. "The weight registered by the scale is determined by two processes not necessarily synchronized under the influence of HCG. Fat is being extracted from the cells, in which it is stored in the fatty tissue. When these cells are empty and therefore serve no purpose, the body breaks down the cellular structure and absorbs it, but breaking up of useless cells, connective tissue, blood vessels, etc., may lag behind the process of fat-extraction. When this happens the body appears to replace some of the extracted fat with water which is retained for this purpose. As water is heavier than fat the scales may show no loss of weight, although sufficient fat has actually been consumed..."
Thank goodness for reasonable doctors because I woulda gone insane without that quote.
