At the end of Cycle 8 Steven said....

May all of my bad cycles be that I only lose one pound.

.... I suppose he means instead of gaining weight ....

End of Cycles 7 - 8 - 9... down 6 pounds

I haven't written because what I had to say wasn't encouraging so I just stayed away. Sorry.

I only lost one pound at the end of cycle 7 and again at the end of cycle 8. But at the end of cycle 9 I lost 4 pounds. That's a total loss of 31 pounds in 4 months. with cheating.

One day I ate two candy bars because one wouldn't have been enough.

One another day I ate two large cheese danishes.

On many days I ate tuna in addition to my other plan items which is what a maintenance plan allows you to do.

And neither one of those junk items tasted as good as I remembered them tasting.
It really wasn't worth the set back!

Did I already tell you about the mind technique where you close your eyes and just imagine you are eating a candy bar, chese danish, or whatever.
I promise you this: it will taste better in your memory than it will in real life!

Like I said earlier: Had I been more cooperative with the plan requirements I would already weigh 20 pounds less.

But I've been back on track for one week, now two weeks including this one, and I lost 4 pounds last week.

And Steven put the balls back on the stomach and liver which are considered strong points that are good for an 8 pound weight loss.

I'm surviving on 3 to 4 crisp, really cold, golden delicious apples a day. And for variety I eat a little super cold, sweet, seedless watermelon.

All last week I ate less than 500 calories a day except for one day when I ate a slice of baked salmon which is high in fat calories.

But Steven said not to be concerned with calories. I also ate two cans of water packed tuna last week which is 100 calories per can. (80 calories x 3 apples = 240 + 100 = 340)

But really >>>>>> I am never physically hungry. I eat because Steven says that I must.

And I twirl my tiny balls every time my cell phone alarm reminds me to do it.

As for my mental hunger >>>>>> I keep telling that little nagging voice in my head that if I would have been more cooperative during the last month I would already be 20 pounds closer to my goal weight.

I have also been walking around inside the stores. I never buy anything. I just walk around and look. And sometimes I am walking to quickly to even see what I am passing but that's okay.

I don't feel guilty about using their air conditioning to walk around in because I know that I will spend money there on a different day.

Some days I time how long it takes me to walk up and down every aisle and then I try to beat my own time the next time I'm there. What fun!

Also, I have been eating apples every day >>>>> as in No Milk Days >>>>> because I have been takng a strong antibiotic twice a day. But now I'm taking a smaller dose of something else and I think I can drink some milk without feeling sick from these pills. 

But remember this: Steven says you lose 1 pound after one milk day and 3 pounds after two milk days. So it is   not good   to eliminate milk days.

And now my revised goal is to lose as many pounds as I can in as few days as I can.

How about you? Have you tried a Sadkhin Complex yet?

Have a nice day!
