Today my husband and I finally tried adding the 100% Premium Ghiradelli Baking chocolate to our BPC. It wasn't easing trying to get that grated and shopped up so I could add it to the Ninja for blending. At first, I wanted to simply grate it using the food processor. I tried, it failed. Then I tried simply processing in in the food processor. Again, this was a no-go. My husband found the tiny grater that is used for zesting citrus fruit. That worked, but it was so difficult. Finally, he just grabbed a knife and chopped it up. That was the best method! It was worth it!
Starting weight: 415 lbs
Current weight: 361.4 lbs ⇧
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 359 lbs
The scale is not being very friendly to me these days. I'm wondering if it's due to stress, or whether I'm somehow eating too much or eating the wrong foods. I don't know. I raised my calories a bit, but not much. My meal today was 1288 calories in total. That shouldn't have made me gain. What I think may be happening is that I lost a lot during the 72-hour fast, and I am regaining water weight.
I bet I'll lose down past my short-term goal when I can fast again. I want to see the scale say 359 lbs. I want it to say 145 lbs, but I'm realistic. So I'll settle for 359 lbs for now. I can't wait to see it. I know it will happen. I have faith. I've come this far!
I joined a Facebook group called Fasting for Weight Loss, and I believe that I had mentioned it before in one of these posts a day or two ago. They follow Dr. Jason Fung, and there is a lot of really great information in the pinned post that contains an FAQ for us beginners. I'm not sure I'm going to stick around in that group for long, though. They have a lot of rules about what you can't post or say. I'm not sure what I can post or say.
From reading the FAQs, I learned that I should expect to lose about a half-a-pound a day while fasting. Not only that, but my metabolism will get faster. That's great! I need a faster metabolism, for sure! I want to get rid of this fat as soon as I possibly can! I have been trying hard to imagine myself thinner, wearing cuter clothes, maybe being able to run or something. It's hard. I can't really see myself doing these things. I can't wait until I get to experience them.
A half-a-pound-a-day is all I ask graph:
