Day 4 - Can't belive the amount of fat I've lost!

Day 4 of detox

Everything is going great and I feel great!

I was really shocked by my numbers when I got on the scale this morning...down another pound but the bigger picture is stunning to me!

Since Sunday....I have lost 14.54 pounds of fat! and gained 5.04 pounds of muscle!

My body age is down to 52  :)

My resting metabolism has increased from 1681 to 1684

I'm just so very excited about how well this detox is going!

I have been doing really well with getting food out for the rest of the family and staying on track but last night was a real challenge.  My daughter made herself a kemper snack sandwich and boy do I love fish.  I wasn't hungry but it smelled sooooo yummy.  If I hadn't already convinced myself I will only eat when hungry this week I would have so given in to the craving to get one of those sandwiches myself.  By instead I went outside where I couldn't smell the fish till she was finished eating. 
Later my son really really wanted me to fix him some homemade sweet potato french fries.  I knew there was little chance that I could stand over the stove fixing one of my fav snacks without eating some.  So to keep from having to cook I told the kids to load up in the car and I'd take them to get Jack-in-the-Box fries. 
The were so happy.  David got his fry fix and I was able to pass on eating any of the stuff they were eating in the car on the way home.  :)

I made it through the day without having anything other than what I was suppose to eat.  :)  I'm soooo proud of myself!

Right now I'm thinking that until I reach my goal fat percent I will do the detox diet one week out of each month.  and next month I am going to premake and freeze meals for the family before hand.  Then all I have to do is heat things up and add a salad to make each meal.  That's do-able for me....and I will be sure and not make any of my fav things.  I wouldn't want to have to smell them heating up while on my diet.  :)

We didn't get to walk yesterday since my son filled just wanted to play in the backyard in the sand and water.  I was 102 steps short of my 10,000 but we did get a LOT of work done in the yard and we are one step closer to being ready to plant.

  2. My scale lied :(
    Today it shows my over all weight loss from Sunday has dropped 8.2 pounds but it also shows that I have gained no muscle :( It says I have lost 2.19 pounds of fat and lost 3.18 pounds of muscle and lost 2.83 pounds of water.
