Let it begin!!! I'm sorry I haven't posted like I normally do during a round so I have to sum up the last few days here. I began loading on Monday. I drank a liter of coffee cream (also called table cream) throughout the day. I focused on foods I don't allow my self even late in Maintenance plus some healthy fats I do eat normally: Honey Cruellers, Angus burger with cheese and bacon, bacon and eggs (cooked the eggs in the bacon grease), full fat yogurt, raw almonds, roasted peanuts, and a milk shake. On the second day I had bacon and eggs again, hashbrowns, and then I hit a wall with some personal crisis that I'm not going to share. Let's just say that I wasn't so hungry and the crisis didn't help. I missed 2 doses throughout the day too. I managed to get some more fat in at a chinese buffet but I knew I had done poor job. The next morning I had only gained 0.6 from that day so I decided to do a 3rd load day. I made sure I was on track with my doses and loaded good. I started the day at Timmies with an egg and sausage with 2 hashbrowns. 'Snack' was a milkshake and 2 honey cruellers with a large coffee (4 creams). I bought another liter of table cream and sipped it through the day again. Lunch was another angus bacon/cheese burger (minus the top bun), large fries and a 10 pack of nuggets. Couple slices of cheese pizza and more table cream in the late afternoon. I couldn't do supper but later in the evening I had a handful of almonds, garlic bread and finished my table cream. Phew!!!! Now that is a load day.

The results of my 3 load days was a gain of 4.2lbs. I weighed in at 185 the morning of my 1st load day putting me at 189.2lbs. I have since done one day on VLCD and on the morning of the 2nd day (today) I had dropped 3lbs! Yay! Only 1.2 more to go before I can start counting down.

Yesterday I ate my usual chicken and cucumber salad for lunch and had extra lean ground beef with organic tomato sauce (1/2 cup) with my melba and apple for supper. I missed my melba and my other fruit because I fell asleep on the couch and woke up at 11pm.

I just happen to have some left over extra lean ground beef. Otherwise, I wouldn't normally have it very often on VLCD. We'll see what happens after today since I used it in both meals (so not like me!). I made sure I took out chicken for both meals tomorrow. 

Okay, that brings me up to date! Hope everyone is doing well!!!
Cheers!
