Dr. Poon 18 Week Update

Woo Hoo!!! It's week 18 and I'm still going strong. Went in for my appointment on Tuesday morning and am happy to say I lost another 4.5 pounds and 3 pounds of fat. In total the amount of weight loss is 44 pounds. I feel great and am having the hardest time keeping my pants up. Yes, they are getting way too big and I have tried purchasing new ones and before I can get them altered I am already of them so I think I am going to invest in either buying smaller and trying to get into them or just purchasing a belt. I guess whichever one works best. I am heading back in to see Dr. Poon on October 13th my little Ethan's 3rd birthday. The day after Thanksgiving which I am hosting. The receptionist even asked if I was sure I wanted to come in on that day. I said there is no reason why I shouldn't. I plan to have a fun Thanksgiving but no what I can and can not eat. I will just have to be strong and do this one weekend without really going too nuts. I am planning on having a little tiny slice of my famous pumpkin cake.

I have been going like crazy without a minute to myself. If I live through October it will be a huge surprise. Off I go to update contracts.

Have an awesome night!

Hello Veronica,

I was researching Dr Poon and came across your blog. Amazing job! I was thinking this morning to track your performance is the best way to progress...I like your idea and I'm going to try it. I'm on day 1 of Phase one. Crazy before the weekend but can't keep making excuses...
If you're free - send me an email - love your words of encouragement and would like to exchange ideas on how to stay strong on this lifestyle change.

Have a great weekend!

@ Andrea, Thank you for the kind words. Remember the first couple of days you will feel sick because of no sugar and salt intake. Your body will take a couple of days to get use to it.

I will go and e-mail you now. I have every faith you will stick to it as the results are amazing.
