Dr. Poon 16 week Update

I only have a few moments before Big Brother 11 is on. I am so hoping that Jordan wins and Natalie does not. I know a little mean but I can't stand her and wish that she is out.

Well, today I went in to see Dr. Poon and was a little discouraged by my 2.5 pound loss. When I got in there he was telling me not to be so hard on myself and to be proud that I lost 5.5 pounds of fat on top of losing 2.5 pounds in weight. So all in all he was very happy with the results and I guess after thinking about it so am I.

After the appointment I headed to The Low Carb Grocery Store (thanks Carolyn) in Markham and found that the prices were just a little less than the actual Dr. Poon office. I purchased (Phase 1) marshmallows, caramel sauce, lemon crud, bars and some chocolates. All in all it was a good shopping experience. I also met a wonderful couple of ladies. One has been on for 2 weeks and lost 16 pounds (Great Work!) and the other is on her 3rd day. I wish them both good luck and really enjoyed running into them.

Off I go to get our tea started before BB11.

Nighty Night Everyone

@vicjul - Oh my an appointment for Monday. This is awesome news. I am very happy that the appointment is so soon. You will be fine. They weight you in and just check BMI, Body Fat % and a few more things. All you have to do is stand on the scale.

I tired e-mailing you at the e-mail you left but it came back at me. I just went back and noticed you put down .ca and it's .net
I am trying it again with the old message to see if you actually receive it. If not e-mail me at designsbyveronica@rogers.com

Good Luck!!!

Hi Veronica,

I happened to researching Dr Poon's diet and I bumped into your blog. I am happy for you, you have lost alot of weight. When you start to feel energetic and people notice it is a wonderful thing. Is there anyway you can give me a little more information about this diet? I ordered the book today and should receive it sometime this week. But I am anxious, I really want to lose this weight. You can email me at brownsugar_ft@yahoo.com. Thanks

Good for you, Veronica! That is a huge loss when you factor in the fat loss! Keep it up! We're all in it for our health! Even a lb is like a brick of butter off your body somewhere!

Now, I'm worried as all heck, cause I go in tomorrow for the first time since a week before my FIL passed. O_O I'm soooo going to tip those scales.

Be PROUD of yourself girlfriend! By my calculations that's 39.5 lbs lost (or 1 preschooler, lol!). I can't wait to see you, I'm sure you look fab.
