Well I'll be damned. It really does work.

Well, sweet world, I am happy to annouce that after a full, uninterrupted 16 days of doing this crazy 17 day diet thing I'm officially 8 pounds lighter. :)

When I started this whole shabang (before I went to maine on June 23rd), I was 168 pounds. Then I went camping, ate kinda like crap, but still managed to keep the 3 pounds off that I had lost before I went on holiday.

After Maine though, I decided I was going all out, hardcore, and taking this shit seriously. Granted, I was eating a few things on the list that may not have been exactly what the book said (soy milk, a little cheese, and some veggies that weren't on the list) but I stuck to my guns. No complex carbs.

Being 2 pounds and one day away from the end of the cycle, I've decided to stay on cycle one just until I've hit the 10 pound mark.

Also, I have a feeling I would have hit the 10 pound mark a lot sooner if I had actually worked out like I should have been. I've been more active than I was, that's for sure, but things have slowed down significantly for reasons that shouldn't even be reasons at all. Basically, I have no excuse, and I know that.

Anywho. I'm happy. Very  happy with where things are, where they're going, and the progress I've made. :)


There I was, at the beginning, back in March


And here I am, armed with a plan and determination, 10 pounds lighter. :)
