Not on purpose, though. It was a brain-dead moment, that whole day! I had actually lost only 8 1/2 pounds by the sixth day--I just subtracted wrong.
AND, when I said I had gotten down to 134 a year and a half ago, I transposed the numbers, oops. I had actually gottne down to 143 pounds. So that's why I thought an extra ten pounds would look pretty okay.
Are any of you finding yourself going brain-dead, here and there, on this diet?
Anyway. I'm starting my second week today, and I have lost a total of 9 pounds (for sure this time) so far. So in the last two days, I have lost one pound.
But I figure that a 1/2 pound loss per day is HUGE, if it's fat, and not water. Because it takes 3500 calories to make a pound, and my body weight only uses about 2000 calories a day. So I can't possibly use up a whole pound's worth of of fat in one day, I'm thinkin'.
Well, so I started out at 164, and now 175, YOU do the math hee hee!
