Surprise!

NV Day 33: Surprise!

I stepped on the scale this morning and thought I had gained back a couple pounds. But then I realized I was reading the scale wrong. So I stepped off the scale and back on just to make sure my eyes weren't deceiving me. They weren't. I lost two more pounds!

Bringing my total weight loss in 33 days to: six pounds.


Weight: 152

SIX POUNDS! I love NV!

What a great surprise to start my day with.

Avoiding the scale

NV Day 30: Avoidance.

I've been avoiding the scale.

Sometimes it's better NOT to know you haven't lost any more weight. Not knowing keeps me from getting frustrated when the weight on the scale isn't decreasing.

I've been keeping with the daily NV program of two pills a day, I'm not hungry and the urge to snack at work is all but gone. Sometimes willpower is still required. If I could figure out how to turn my sense of smell off when I walk by the donut box at work, I wouldn't need willpower at all.

Four!

NV Day 24: Four!

After days at the same weight, today I stepped on the scale and one more pound had disappeared!

This brings my total weight loss in 24 days to: four pounds.


Weight: 154

Obviously I'm not losing weight as fast as I'd like to, but it's at a healthy pace and I'm not starving myself.

I'm happy with NV so far.

Plateaus...

NV Day 20: Plateaus.

Why does it feel like nothing is happening?

Eight days since my last weigh in and I've still only lost three pounds.

Obviously I've reached a plateau. At least I haven't gained back the three pounds I lost. I'm maintaining that weight loss which is good. But when you're taking NV and dieting like you're supposed to and days go by without any results... it's frustrating.

Three pounds is still good. Much better than I was doing on my own.

NV is still working!
