Weigh In

It’s Friday, and that means weigh day!! I started this week at 196. I had put on some pounds and on Monday started the carb purge. I had done it once before and for two consecutive days. This time I extended it to three days. The forth day I ate fairly normal. So todays weight, 192. I lost 4 lbs this week. I am pleased. Although I will not carb purge daily, I believe eating the raw green veggies is a great way to control my intake and it’s healthy. I am getting a balanced diet( proteins, fruit) just no “bad” carbs. Maybe I have a carb allergy, and thats why the weight wouldnt drop. Is there such a thing as a carb allergy?? lol  I am hoping to be in the 180’s next Friday. YAY! for me!!  I Had the MRI last night, 8pm. They called me at the last minute, and got me in the same day, so for that I am happy. I should have results by Monday. MRI was quite an experience. I went in with my eyes closed and did a lot of visualization and controlled breathing, and made it through fine. The machine sure vibrates a lot and is quite noisy. I am optimistic this will help with my diagnosis. It is time to identify and correct, so I can get back to my life. We are expecting some light rain this weekend. After 2 weeks of PURE sunshine, I will not complain!!!! Enjoy your weekend.

    Way to go, Sandy!! I’ve NO doubt that you’ll be in the 180’s by next Friday, and I know you know that you can do it! :)
    I’ve never had an MRI, but I’ve heard they’re not for people who are not keen on confined spaces! Pretty uncomfortable feeling. I’m glad to hear you handled it okay, and didn’t freak out or anything! haha!
    Hope you have a great weekend! Thanks, again for your support. I was reading back through some of my really old posts, and was reminded that you’ve been right there with me from the beginning, cheering me on….and I sure do appreciate it! :)

    Sandy, I am glad to see that your weight is dropping again, that is great! I hope that your MRI results come back and everything is fine, I know it will, or at least give you some answers.

    “light rain” more like its suppose to downpour on Monday is what I saw on the news :) and yes we need it, I just got in from raking the back part of my yard, I am hoping it sprouts up after the rain. keep up the good work,
