I think, technically, it's like loading day five. When I'm on the rag and thereafter, I tend to binge and it's been in a big way this time. Holy cow! The weight I saw this morning made me want to cry, (178.2) but I'm remaining positive. It's all for the greater good. The protocol even encourages additional days of loading. I also realize that there's water weight from TOM which (hopefully) will disappear along with the loading weight. Again, remaining positive.
Hubby came home today from his show. Before he left, he knew I'd be starting my loading on the day of his return, so we planned for a dinner out. Texas Roadhouse! Oh, man! The rolls and butter are like crack to me. I'm truly a carb-addict. I know like I know like I know I've got to be free of this for a while to regain my focus. No time like the present.
Giving myself an injection this morning was a little tricky. I don't really care for the syringes/needles I have because their a bit on the thick side and I can feel them. I've got to really find a "fatty" area in order to avoid feeling the prick. The first batch of needles I had were great, but measuring was difficult. There's got to be a happy medium. Unfortunately, I bought the latest set in bulk. I hope I won't ever need to buy more, but if I do, I'm open to feedback from those who have found the happy medium.
So, before I settle in for a night of rolling around like a stuffed-tick, here's what I had today:
