Putting The Die Back In Diet or 4 Pounds In 3 Days
I started following the diet strictly and it seems to make a difference.
To reiterate I was stuck at or around 242 for a few weeks. In that time I ate a little too much fat and consumed a few too many calories. I reverted to the original plan with a few modifications. I have substituted cherries and plums for apples and oranges because the latter two are out of season. You can still find some of last year's crop but they are not as tasty as the fresh fruit.
I will be taking a mini-vacay this week and I plan to eat heartily at that time. Upon return I will start Phase II, which will be a lot like Phase I but without much cheating.
Day 41, July 8...242 lb.
Day 42, July 9...242 lb. (Recommitted to following diet closely)
Day 43, July 10...240 lb.
Day 44, July 11...238 lb.

Still Stuck At 242
July 3rd to July 9th...Hovering around 242 lb., give or take a lb.
I probably customized the diet a little too much to avoid hunger pains, mental confusion, fatigue, etc. I am trying to revert to 500-1000 calories/day.
