I'm still going. We recently welcomed our 4th child into the world.
She and her mother are doing well. Despite the long days of watching the other 3 squids, I've managed to stay on the diet relatively well.
I played basketball on the 25th and weighed in as usual.
July 25 Weigh-in
WEIGHT: 196.0
Difference: 21.5 lbs. since May 1, 2006
I was so proud of myself after that weigh-in that I loosened up a little. I get curious about whether I can gain weight because the pounds seem to come off so effortlessly. So I pigged out on my mother-in-law's potatoes, green-bean casserole and spiral-cut ham. I ate big dinners and lunches on Wednesday and Thursday.
Thusday morning came around and I was on the basketball court again. About 30 minutes into my workout, I felt a tightness in my left calf muscle. It hit me right when I cut to the basket for a layup. I thought it was cramps because that's what it felt like, but the pain persisted especially when I tried to run. I stopped and tried to stretch it and massage it, but the pain didn't leave. So I had to shower early. It was painful to put pressure on it the rest of the day. I looked up my symptoms on WebMD and it turns out that it's a muscle strain.
This morning when I woke up, the pain was considerably less. I can walk "normally" now without limping. So I'll give it some rest until next Tuesday and then see how I'll do on the court.
Anyway, I weighed in Thursday morning too.
July 27 Weigh-in
WEIGHT: 198.0
Difference: 19.5 lbs. since May 1, 2006
Yesterday I had a really good day on the diet. I took the WO in the morning and then ate a McDonald's salad. Then I drank WO in the afternoon. I went to class that night and then didn't eat anything until I got home. When I got home, I just ate a ham sandwich. I really wasn't hungry all day long.
I havn't been taking the flax seed oil capsules lately ... just been forgetting. But I have been continuing to get some good sleep.
Anyway ... I'm still here. I probably will only post once a week until I hit 185 (which should be around the middle of September).
