Weekly Weigh-in

I had a little bit of a problem last week.  I wasn't hungry.  I mean really wasn't hungry to the point of not wanting to eat.  With as little as we get in Phase 1 (somewhere from 900 to 1200 calories per day) not eating isn't a good thing.  It could throw your body into "starvation mode" where it starts hoarding fat again. I really don't want that to happen.  I've begun to enjoy my lower fat figure immensely :)

So I made myself eat.  I ate mostly protein when I didn't want to eat.  It seemed to be at dinner time.  I had a regular breakfast and lunch and although I wasn't super hungry  at those times, I did eat what I needed to.  Then all of a sudden it was 8 PM and I hadn't had dinner and I really didn't want any.  This lasted 2 or 3 days in a row.  I was starting to get worried, but I found my appetite again.

When I mentioned it to Lindsay today she thought there might have been a bug going around.  I don't know about that, but my appetite seems to have returned to normal so that's a good thing.  Maybe it was to just get me through a wedding and Easter all in the same weekend.  I certainly wasn't tempted to go off plan because I barely wanted the legal stuff.

It was a pretty typical weigh in this week.  Which is also good.  I didn't want the weirdness to cause a plateau either.  So far so good.  Still plugging on down..  I might have to make a graph though.  I like graphs and I think it would be pretty to see the line go down every week :)
