VLCD day 11

Weight: 168.8!!
I lost another pound :) My last weigh-in's have been exactly one pound for the last four days. (171.8, 170.8, 169.8, and now 168.8) Every morning I take a picture of the scale to log it. I don't know why, it just makes me feel good that I've captured it somehow.

Oh, I redid my reward list from my first post. It now goes:
170 - new bottle of perfume
165 - new contacts
160 - new pair of Nike shoes
155 - mini shopping spree (hoping I need some smaller clothes!)
150 - gold necklace
145 - romantic evening with my husband

I don't know if I will reach all these goals while on HCG, but I'm hoping to hit as many as possible! I am supposed to get a new bottle of perfume from my husband the next time we go shopping! And then hopefully I'll be seeing 165 in a few days and get to go to the eye doctor and order some new contacts in. I can't wait for the last four rewards :)  It makes the whole process feel more tangible because I get physical rewards for reaching certain goals even if I may not see changes on my body or if my body is not where I want it to be yet.

I can definitely feel my clothes fitting better though, and it's great. I haven't really gone through and tried many things on, but the clothes that I am wearing feel better already. I did try on the dress I'm weraing for my dad's wedding, though, and it looks even better than when I bought it :) Yay!

I realized that if I wanted to "quit" this thing early, I could stop in ten days because it would complete a 23 day cycle. Do I want to do that... not really deep down... but somedays I would loooove to just be over this. Especially in the case of social events! I'm having a sleep over next Thursday with my sisters and I won't be able to eat ANYTHING :( Normally we pig out like crazy on junk food, but this time it's cold turkey for me... there will be other sleep overs... :( I know I'm not ready to even trust myself with that type of food again just yet. So if I don't stop at 23 days, then I'm looking at 27 left. That's less than four weeks, and I could potentially lose 27 pounds if I stick with it. (Though I'll probably encounter another stall one of these days, especially during my period... not looking forward to that next week, yikes!)
