Another Day FIFTEEN – and in a similar mood as back then on my original 2009 Day FIFTEEN. Again, I am making progress (14 lbs in 2 weeks) and again am I terribly bored. This year I am overall very busy which helps a lot getting through the days. And, knock on wood, so far no tragedy as back then with Tricky’s death has hit. Another 4 weeks I am assuming and I am counting the days…

Day FIFTEEN – 2011

TRANSITION : Week 9 – Day 1
Nov 12
This is the first week since the beginning of transition that I am happy with how the weight has “behaved” during the past week. Finally no more frantic jumping around but softly moving within the boundaries of a pound. Another such stable week and I feel that I am well founded for the coming holiday season and that my weight has truly begun resetting itself.
A nice problem to have.

When I was close to my weight goal, I was fretting over the possibility to gain during transition.
Haha. If I would have known, I would have gone onto transition a week earlier.
I am on my last day of week three of transition and I have lost unexpectedly another 7 pounds during those 3 weeks! I am actually battling, not to lose more because I do not want to end up with that what is called to be underweight – yeeks! I’m doing this by lightly “cheating” here and there, such as not to only eat two small fruits a day but either having a third one on that day or to eat large fruits instead. But even so – the weight is still dropping.
Isn’t this a great problem to have?!
Of course, this next week will be a big test, with 5 days out of town, client meeting(s) next to a wedding and dinners out with old friends long time not seen – I am sure I’ll work my way back up on those 7 pounds pretty darn fast. The nice thing about this (probable) fact is that I do not have to worry if or if not it will happen.
More thing added back into my diet. Nice. Last week I lost even more weight, probably another 2 pounds. Not my plan. Lost even though I am really working on fitness. This week it’s more variety in protein (cheese, YES – but not more than 3 oz a day). I can even have little dairy (milk, yogurt), low fat on my veggie days (I will probably pass for the most, as I still can’t have Sugar in the Raw I am not (yet) interested in my usual large cup of Early Gray tea – I’ll rather wait until I can have it all. Also, I can have some starchy stuff (such as potato) – either starch or grains. Definitely getting back to a full “can have it all”. Again, there is no “standard” when it comes to transition week 2 and later, this is completely personalized. Such even, that next week we will add “wedding cake” back into my menu – as that is the week we will be out of town for such an event.
TRANSITION : Week 2 – Day 1
Sep 24
It is day 1 of my 2nd week of transition! And it’s the first week without beads. No more rubbing!!!
Over the course of the last week I lost another 2.5 pounds – which I had not planned for. What I’ve lost I tend to regain in muscle mass and weight. Have been going regularly 2x a week now to swim and also my daily treadmill routine is beginning again to feel like a routine. I’ve even began sticking to my additional weight lifting regimen. My body fat has also nicely reduced and stabilized at a lower level. Hoping to improve this even more with regular workout. To get my inner fluids running nicely, I ordered a rebounder and am looking forward to incorporate this in my whole regimen.
This morning I had a personal talk with the person from Accu Weight guiding me through my transition time. And I can add 2 new items to my regime! This will be a great addition. I definitely am feeling stronger since I’ve got protein added back into my meal plan and I also no longer am suffering under the chills and heat spells. Finally I can do my long awaited Frittata!
