Week 4

Well, something's definitely kicking in, because we've both been losing at least a pound a day over the last three days or so.  I lost 1.4 lbs Friday night and 1.2 lbs Saturday night.

For me, it's Day 3 of no coffee. I just don't really think about it anymore. So weird.

And Craig - he was smart and took headshots of himself starting on Day 6. So let's look at those:

Craig - Day 6
Craig - Day 21

His face looks thinner, don't you think? 

What? Yes, he's from West Texas. Did you think he'd be wearing a ten gallon hat and have a handlebar mustache?

So with all this momentum, we're definitely going to keep going for another week. Even though, at this particular moment in time, two hours after my lunch (I wrote this yesterday), I'm so hungry I could eat a...burger and fries.

Seriously. I'm like this:
 

OK, I just had an apple w/some almond butter and I'm feeling much better now.

I have one more week of working from home, so I can continue to cook during the lunch hour. Whether we continue after that depends on my ability to get my weekends in order enough to be able to shop on Saturdays and cook on Sundays. I want to keep eating like this, but I also don't want it consuming my life. Now that would be some irony, huh?

  4. Thanks, everyone! Craig definitely looks thinner. He's really excited about the six pack abs he's about to have. :) And he just told me that my thighs and hips look smaller, so yay for me.

    Alejandro, I'd love to share with you Craig's gastro issues, but that might take a while to write about and I don't think I can send you a message through your Facebook page(it's not enabled). I would post about them here, but I think it would be way too much information for most people. :) What would be a good way to share that info with you?
